Unchained Lyrics

The smell of your perfume
Reminds me of that past tune,
‘Is it the way?’
Watching your hips sway
Gazing into your eyes
Captured by the truth that lies
In your style, your grace
That takes me higher.
The soft touch of your lips
Reminds me there’s none better than this.
You have this man….hypnotized.
My friends say paralyzed.
Sprung?
Whipped?
Whatever it is, I don’t care.

Let me run my fingers through your hair
Whisper how much I care
How I’ll never leave
The air my lungs breathe
Selfish…
When it comes to your time
You’re mine, only mine
Not for me to share
Without you, there’s despair

Beauty freezes when it sees you.
Sexy turns her face with just a glance of you
Only the sun rivals the radiance of your smile
Your glow is my north star
I’ll travel a million mile.
Take my hand
Let’s enter this land
Exclusively made for you and I
For the rest of our lives.
Souls unmasked.
Love made manifest.
Passion unbridled.
Ecstasy uncovered.
No outside interferences.
We’re the only factor.
With you, completeness covers this man.
You must understand
I need you like life support…
I need you until time ticks no more.

Refine Me

Just as gold is purified in a furnace,
I need you, my Maker…my Engineer, to refine me.

Make me whole.
Repair the damage I’ve done.
Take this man of imperfection,
Touch me with your hands of perfection.
With Your grace and mercy,
Shower me.
Give me a new walk.
Give me a new talk.
Put the mud over my eyes.
Continue to un-blind me.
My spirit within…continue to make it anew.
Let my reflection be of you.
Let your Word be made manifest within me.
Wisdom and discernment: instill it in me.

Keep refining. Don’t want to be a finished product.
If finished, I can no longer be perfected.
Keep molding me.
Don’t remove me from the fire.
Keep me in your refinery
Ridding me of my impurities,
Releasing the toxins out of my mind,
Cleansing the stains of my sin…
Becoming more defined,
Enhancing my mind,
Growing to be more introspective,
Clearer and improved prospective.

Keep me near.
Away from You, I am nothing.
I’m like the deer,
Thirsty, panting for more of You.
I’m only a man.
You’re the reason why I am what I am.
Decrease me.
Increase you.
With Your blood, cover me.
Justify me.
Re-shape me.
Change me.
Refine me.

Nothing

All my life,
Living on death-row.
A criminal walking free.
Boxed in by society’s preconceived notions.
Trapped by prejudice.

Heart cold.
Mad at the world.
Never got a fair shake.
Any opportunity, I had to make.
But it was always taken.

Discouraged.
Each day I get closer to my execution date,
Playing the cards I’ve been dealt.
A losing hand is all I’ve ever seen.
Life’s never had significant meaning.

Soul in purgatory.
Dark days describe my story.
My purpose and I have no acquaintance.
My worth and I have never crossed paths.
Time is fading away.

Conditioned
Is my mind that I’m Nothing.
Just a number on a census report.
No one recognizes me.
The world has forgotten about me.

Sentenced
To death at birth.
My fate was sealed the day I entered Earth.
A product of my environment.
I’ve only become what was spoken on me…
Nothing.
