This is purely lyrical:

Ok, so I woke up today wanting to slit my wrists,
But it’s too early to give into the devil’s death kiss,
I put my mind on focusing my hazel eyes,
Realising that I should never listen to the ‘prouder’ guys,
Whatever I am is what God has planned,
So I smile clutching my bible in my hand,
The knife of truth in my left,
The shield of prayer strapped to my chest,
You see me standing like a soldier,
Look at me now; the truth has made me bolder,
Every second is precious,
I’m going to spread the word by making it infectious,
I’m sick of dilly-dallying around wanting people to like me,
I love God accept me who I am or be prepared to fight me,
I don’t mean physically but by the gift of the word,
Be accepted by people who tell the truth but never be deterred,
Just remember that nothing matters on this earth,
Love, God, Live God, trust God this is all your worth,
If ever you feel like you’re different remember that you are,
But that’s a positive thing just play your part,
Keep heart and keep your head facing the clear sky,
When you die you’ll remember why.

some very wise words said-- very good attitude. Absolutely nobody can ever be you.
