Reckless lifestyles



As each day approaches
I thank God for seeing it
No one is perfect
We don't have to be decieving
How we treat others
Should be how we treat ourselves
For those who don't love themselves
Can't love oneanother
For those who love themselves
It shows like no other
I reality the actions
Speak louder
Evil corrupts the mind
It slides away like butter
God holds the spoon
He shows up real soon
He makes the choice
When you follow
The wrong voice.
Pray before you do
God will see you through

    Good flow except I don't understand the line 'I reality the actions'.
