Sonny Jay's blog: "Being Reborn"

Being Reborn

Is there a such thing as being reborn?

Well, I think not.

You will always be who you were from the start.

If you ever done wrong one day in your past.

There are those humans who will make it last.

This is a human world no matter what you may say.

Cesar stands around just waiting on your pay.

From the ache in your back to the pain in your feet.

You fight through a day you never defeat.

Payday comes around and you finally get home.

Only to find bill collectors calling you on the phone.

You bow your head and fall to your knees.

While Cesar lays claim to your hard earned deeds.

You pray to the Lord asking what must I do?

To survive in this life that we all must go through?

Can’t get a better job because of your past.

Those humans are still there haunting your ass.

You say you’ve had enough and start your own path.

A business of your own and you know it will last.

Remember those humans, your friend he pretends?

Helps you see why your business will end.

Being reborn you say comes from the heart.

With the help of our Lord, giving you a fresh start.

But we live in a human world and some we even call friends.

Will keep pulling you down again and again.

Your background will find you wherever you may go.

So being reborn must only be a show.

You can not be true when you are born in sin.

For we are only human and we will sin again.
