Issues Of Life

From your first breath till your last heartbeat
The world presents mess to ingest - your heart eats
What your soul accepts & passes to it
If bad nutrients, a bad influence
If good sustenance, become the truest
Living water or spirits? Select the fluids
What you eat & drink becomes what you think
From within actions flow & patterns link
Of behavior, satan or savior
Character crafted by what you savor
Disciplined? Or giving in to cravings
Results determined by what you're staving
Life or death in dietary restrictions
Heaven or Hell prevail from convictions
Reject delects with defects, they are rife
Guard your heart, out of it issues of life

Guard your heart with all your might
Against evil you must fight
With glory comes strife
These are the issues of life
Guard your heart with all your might
Rise above hate & spite
Don't let pain dim your light
These are the issues of life

Old men dream dreams, young men see visions
Divine revelation, divine appearance
Power granted to those that accept the Spirit
Wind whistles, ripples through hearts ready to hear it
Tongues of fire burn through impurities
Now you hear the voice of the Surety
Debt paid in full, toasting with new wine
Filled to the brim, drunkenness, a new kind
Keeps you sober from the world's intoxication
Strong foundation wards off indoctrination
An impregnable fortress, joint forces
We ride, white knights, heavenly armed on horses
Fighting wicked wizards who whisk bewilderedly
Whom wish to wilt wills with artillery
Designed to shatter souls for infinity
Guard your heart; reside in the Divinity

Guard your heart with all your might
Against evil you must fight
With glory comes strife
These are the issues of life
Guard your heart with all your might
Rise above hate & spite
Don't let pain dim your light
These are the issues of life
Guard your heart with all your might
Against evil you must fight
With glory comes strife
These are the issues of life
Guard your heart with all your might
Rise above hate & spite
Don't let pain dim your light
These are the issues of life

Your heart is the most precious thing you own
Don't play with it or let them take your soul
You must know your value & your worth
Or you'll pay the price
These are the issues of life

Life issues are inevitable
Twin to solutions, inseparable
Problems, death, & taxes, all guaranteed
Brackets impact finances, breadth of need
Suffocated by loans, barely can breathe
Last breath a bill to assuage corporate greed
Minding money, resigned to dying dreams
Unmet goals, ripping souls/soles, clothes tattered seams
Unwhole singles try to forge into teams
Tensions boil in the pot till it steams
Business on front street, other spill the tea
Divorce lawyers collect checks, they up the fee
Toxic; friends dissolve in the area
Couldn't hang, they see flaw in the character
Narcissistic, with jaws of hysteria
Decisions, the cause of embarrassment
Addictions, the addition of habits
Redundant behaviors leave one stagnate
As Phil Connors stuck in time, Groundhog Day
Fear feeds failure, singing "I Got You Babe"
Doused in depression, drowning in loss
Bad health reigns/rains if defeat becomes the boss
As a man thinks in his heart, so is he
Don't let life's issues control your being
