Born to Praise

This idea that has control of me,
But strangely one I'll never see,
It's planned my life apparently,
And chosen who I'll grow to be,

I buy into these stories told,
I'm doomed to fit into this mold,

And now I fear it's much too late,
For now I'm strapped into this fate,

This idea that has control of me,
I'm a single fish in all the sea,
Born to praise upon my knees,
It's chosen who I'll grow to be.

Where there is desire, there is gonna be a flame,<br /> Where there is a flame someone&#039;s bound to get burned.<br /> Just because it burns doesn&#039;t mean you&#039;re gonna die,<br /> You&#039;ve got to get up and try.

This is a very meaningful poem; very relatable as I could feel the pain through the verses. Very insightful; continue to write!
