The last ... again
Proverbs 3:5-6
5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
and do not rely on your own understanding.
6 Acknowledge Him in all your ways,
and He will make your paths straight.
Where do we go from here my brother?
Just let it be and I will not bother
Why go and walk in the same direction
If our points of view have no intersection
You’ll go your way in your chosen race
And I will rest flat on my face
You will get quickly to your finish line
As you draw it in sand so you’ll be fine
As for me I’ll keep on crawling
And listen to one’s like me a bawling
Maybe it is like music in my ears
As I am needed right down here
The race goes on without much meaning
In the stands there is all the screaming
Participants run for the admiration of man
While I’m up in the stands with kids in hand
You give it all to get the trophy
I am just here encouraged and moping
Not too long from now the end of the race
That you will win with me in last place
