Problems pragmatically determine our destiny
Clandestine courses planned out from above
Desicions decide us, and often deride us
Sojourners journey with a message of love
Diluted discoveries confuse us quite regularly
Stay grounded in truth or the conscience will fade
Attacks of an adversary muddy our clarity
Stand strong in your armor and try and be brave
Constant commotion, perpetual emotions
Snag and they tear, right down to the bone
Aghast with the passing, corruption thats lasting
Will leave a mind scarred and a heart hard as stone
The simple they sidestep, all of His precepts
Lollygag laughingly, unphased to the end
While the chosen they struggle through slog and hard trouble
They endure with few words and just say amen
Beautiful paradox, a sacred stumbling block
Divinely expressed in these final days
To all He alluded, they still misconstrued it
Hopelessly trapped and set in their ways
