JUST A MAN BY FRANKLIN ATOGU

in #life6 years ago (edited)

i am of a world of pain and sorrow
Worrying over the uncertainty of tomorrow
Not just of my self but also my bloods
All echoing constantly in my head
Erupting my brains like a volcano
I am just but a man

I walk round on a stained robes
Parading the streets of mankind in vanity
With spits and shades of my fellow neighbors
Doom to death in time being
As a lost cause to the society
Where hate follows me up all corners
I am just but a man

Since birth i choose my company wisely
Distancing myself from all stained
I lost myself in myself
Looking above for redemption
While maintaining the false self
Just to please the world and church
With heavy responsibility on my shoulders
I am just but a man

Beneath all the darkness is the light
Shining brightly to only Heaven and few
Sometimes i fail to see the light in me
Because of the darkness people see
I blame myself of all that goes round
Both of guilty and innocent
I am all guilty because am me
Not even myself found me innocent
This is what i feel
All because am just but a manIMG_20170803_095749.jpg
