why so complacent?

Every chance I have
I ruin by taking chance too many
A risk taker at begining
No risks taken when i'm winning
So I become content with the score which I've at hand
I watch as my opponent begins to reprimand
all that i've done, I hang my head
I'm my opponent, I cause the dread
which now I'm facing
I grow complacent every day
my heart is racing
with hope of finding a way
To do away
with all this trouble,
all this pain
I'll find a way
to burst the bubble
I'm in again
And yes you'd think a bubble'd be easy to escape
I'm bending in and out of shape,
trying to find a way,
back to the place where I began
Back, with intensity I ran
Back, when The Son and I
saw eye to eye,
And now I cry,
because I see He still has a plan-
For my life.
He sought me out-
Now I'm winning again...
May this time I take a chance
at taking chances late in the game.

Most interesting arrangement of stanzas and meter. I really enjoyed this. I especially love the meaning that you put behind this. Christ wants us to keep running the race and complacency is one of the hardest thing that a Christian has to face. Keep letting God control your pen! |

I really liked it. All Christians have to fight complacency in their walk with God, so it's really easy to relate to. And I liked the how meter and rhythm were different, but not just random. |
