Until You Die
Until you die my story lies deep inside
Until you die I wear your shame
Until you die I tame this pain
This pain inside you could not hide
This shame I wear you could not ride
This guilt I fear is not mine
I carry this pain because you could not
I wear this shame because you would rot
This guilt is not mine
But one day I will shine
And you will find
This deep pain that lies inside
It is not mine
I will be fine
One day when you die
My empathy will no longer lie
Your shame will not hide
Your pain no longer my place
Your guilt will then be yours to face
When you see the Almighty Place
I pray deeply for your grace
But it will not be my place
You will have to face what I faced
In the end of this race
Until you die you can win this race
But I will have the final grace
For the last race sets the pace
Your final destination will be your last place
My realization will be in everlasting grace
In the place of my truest fathers face
Until you die my Father God holds my pain inside
Until you die He lifts my head high
Until you die my Father in the sky guides me on this ride
Until you die I’ma ride it out With the Almighty by my side
But best believe when you die
I am going to shine like a diamond in his sky
As my story deep inside unlies
While you lay under my sky
The truth will rise
In the heavens eyes
For when you die I will rise
