WHAT WAS I THINKING???

As a child I grew up thinking everything happened just because someone wanted them to

Unknown to me that we make things happen too

What was I thinking??? 

I though it was normal to sleep at dusk wake up at dawn 

And sleep at dusk and wake up at dawn

Little did I know there was a force behind it 

Pulling and pushing For and against it 

What was I thinking??? 

 Treading through the hard part I thought it was a trial from someone

Who?? I didn't know

And he wanted this for me    

What was I thinking???

I lacked wisdom and I thought it wasn't time for me to have

Not knowing that I dint ask 

So I was left to do wrong and I felt It was right   

What was I thinking???     

You see My head became an amusement pack for headaches 

My body always had a space for pain 

My brain was nothing but plain 

Sickness came so quick like a plane 

And I thought he made it so we all had to partake    

What was I thinking??? 

My life was a trade fair for the exhibition of misplaced priorities and Illusions

Truth was sent on exile   

I was comforted with lies and I was okay

What was I thinking??? 

 My eyes were shut and I thought I was lost in darkness

Light stood ahead I couldn't behold it 

But I could sense ITS MAGNIFICENCE

I just had to MAKE A DECISION to open my eyes

TO THE LIFE IN THE LIGHT 

and now am living that good life And BETTER DAYS ARE STILL AHEAD

How did I survive that life I lived?

WHAT WAS I THINKING???
