From What You Left Behind

Lots of experiences await us

Locked inside the cracks of what joy is left

This world will reject you

And all the experiences that come along with it


This world will make you feel pain like no other

But that's no excuse to not keep on living

You must keep on striving

For the good experiences that await


You may lose some friends

Or go through times of hardship

But just keep in mind

That you always have your soul


That soul will keep you going

Even if you die or drown

You will keep on living

Even if you have been knocked down


That soul will guide you through your life

And what is left of your body after you have passed

You will extend your arm to reach for the heavens

Only to fall again, shortly after you have breathed your last


But do not falter, for I say to you and this godforsaken world:

Don't give up! I have experienced what you have too

And what awaits us in heaven

Is much more comforting than what you endure through


The sun is warm and welcoming

And there will be no more sadness

For the God of Gods will come

And free you from your madness


He will take you up to heaven with him

And hold you in his hands

He will welcome you gratefully

And you will have no more demands


You will be free from the world

And all of its negative desires

You will be handed a crown

And asked to look over those liars


The people you left behind

The people who loved you and gave you clothes

The people who would never give up

Like you had broken your oath


And you will realize to yourself

And tell the liars you had left behind

I want to go back to where I was

Because of all the things that had come back to mind

The things that you had loved

And the things that you left behind
