Unless the first step is taken ...

Titus 1:15 15 All is pure to those who are pure. But to those who are corrupt and unbelieving,nothing is pure, but both their minds and consciences are corrupted.  Step

 

Unless you take the first step ... you will never move.

Helpless and hopeless ... just in need of friends.

Unless you are carried ... but what does that prove?

Not knowing where you’re going in someone else’s hands.

 

When an elephant gets old ... he goes to his cemetery.

He will travel all alone ... and no one buys his plot.

Humans so when getting old ... are searching and seeking

How to escape destiny ... hanging on to a self-made “god”?

 

They travel from face lifts ... into replacement parts.

Donated by them who left before ... whose life they’ve long forgotten.

Conscience seared long ago ... as life they are prolonging.

Decaying bones dressed in skin ... from a mind that is slowly rotting.
