This goes out to you and you

And you know who you are

 

When glory days turn to stormy nights

You must have been so petrified

(didn't you didn't you feel so cold?)

You against the world in a losing fight

(a losing fight)

Captive of your demons inside

 

So you sought an enemy

(i'm not your enemy)

Like times before to mock ignorantly

(he lives in you you know it's true)

(but the lord said love your enemy so just)

Take heed to the word it's time

Check proverbs 19:29 don't cry

 

I wish you well

I wish you well

I wish you well

 

I truly wanted solidarity

Still wearing my blinders back then

(so much i didn't see)

I weep for what i've dreamed we all could be

(i still weep still weep still weep)

I'll keep you in prayer till the end

 

Still bruised still walk on eggshells

Same frightened child hide to protect myself

(can't believe i still need to protect myself from you)

But you can't manipulate me like before

(no!)

Examine first john chapter 4 verse 4

 

And i wish you well

I wish you well

I wish you well

 

{be strong in the lord and power of his might}

 

If my shows of gratitude are minuscule

Inside your mind sorry

(i'm so sorry please forgive me)

There's only so much i can do

I love you and did all that i could

(i did all that i could)

 

Maybe when you're cursing me

You don't feel so incomplete

But we've all made mistakes

Felt the guilt and self-hate

 

I know that you've been there for plenty

Maybe still got love for me

But let him without sin cast the first stone brethren

 

But who remains standing then?

Not you not i see philippians 4:9

(no not)

(put it into practice and the god of peace will be with you)

 

So i wish you well

I wish you well

I wish you well

(he who the son sets free is free indeed)

 

No weapon formed against me shall prosper

Surely god is my salvation

I will trust and not be afraid

 

The lord the lord is my salvation

I will trust in him

Yes i know that i know that i know that i know

That i know that i know that i know

 

But i have had god's help to this very day

And so i stand here and testify to small and great alike

So the more you curse me the more you're blessing me

The word said it ?love your enemies?

 

Do good to those who curse you

Pray for those who mistreat you

Psalms 129:2 they have greatly oppressed me from my youth

But they have not gained victory over me i wish you well

 

{he that keeps his mind state on the lord}

{he will keep them in perfect peace}
