Be convicted

Sometimes I wonder at life
I wonder at the way we live our lives
Morals seem to disappear so quickly
We say we live by a moral code
But do we really?
I watch people and the things they do
They also claim a moral code
But so many of them are lying
They must not have read the fine print
I wish they would just realize
Wake up and smell the coffee
The things they do affect them forever
Love is not just a four letter word
Defined by sex and meaningless expressions
Love is also not at first sight
I love you means nothing if you don’t mean it
Take the time to understand the simple formula
Not me plus you equals true love
Feelings plus sacrifice equals love
Drugs and partying are not okay
Why break the body God gave you?
This life is a gift and we throw it away
Perfection is impossible but why not strive?
Do you not see others watching you?
Are you not embarrassed?
I wish it was simpler
As simple as punching you all in the mouth
When you say the things you do, I’m tempted
My god, just be convicted
Stop being so damn stupid
Realize your mistakes and reconcile them
Apologize to the ones you’ve hurt
Apologize to yourself
Value yourself more than you do
You are beautiful and worth his love
You are the reason for the sacrifice
Why not be a sacrifice?
Stop living for the next high
Start living for someone else
Just imagine how things could be different
How you could be different
I forgive you, and so does He.
Forgive yourself and be convicted.
