Jesus is an addict

[rhymarhyma]

flatline...
that line was uncut
but what do I know
a wino
no
go away
far away
from me
I see freedom
in escape
mind-raping
the blind
come find me
confined
remind me
to rewind me
to right before
she died
I cried you know
I drive her crazy
she said
I tried to revive her
a survivor of
syringe-binge cringes
comes to an end
a no fun funeral
weekend
I attend
pretend to blend
in
send what
I penned
OD trend
mend, heart
mend
of my girlfriend...

phone-check, kid
snitches
get stitches
which is a crazy
way to live daily
it's hazy
mail me a letter
they're like gold
but better
face it
taste
incarceration
manifestation
you told
me
you'd hold me
and you'd wait
'til I got out
no doubt
now I'm about to
kill a guy
that wants to murder
a friend
of mine
so I
glorify
a lie
I heard
killing and murder
ain't the same
in this game
infamous fame
a shame
a sham
a broken pen
pointless
no point
in playing
this joint...

addiction
affliction
a contradiction
an admission of
my condition that lies
makes lows highs
makes highs
higher
fire
desire
too wired to
take anymore
two lighters
later
no more dope
knees on the
floor
no more rope
arms to the sky
hopeless
nope
cross my heart
hope
to die
perfected
perfect
Christ paid my
price
of loan
convicted in my
conflict
no
longer alone
now
Jesus
is an addict
because
he took my
vices
as
his own...

I AM free...

1 Corinthians 10:13
No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.

1 John 2:16
For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—comes not from the Father but from the world.

1 Corinthians 6:12
“I have the right to do anything,” you say—but not everything is beneficial. “I have the right to do anything”—but I will not be mastered by anything.

Tell me about it. The weird thing is is that for all those years, freedom was always right there in front of me, just waiting for me to ask. God's a trip, yo.No doubt. Keep on being free, brotha. Peace

FEAR false evidence appearing real fear is the opposite of faith i was scared to death for years of facing myself my emotions the real world not knowing jesus at the time i had to fill the whole with something and that something was usually drug or alcohol until i accepted the fact that jesus was the only thing that could feel that hole and truly make me happy i was not the man i was supposed to be and although i still have a lot of growing to do I'm on the right path as long as i stay in his will and in his word

Oh man...how great that Jesus sees us in a greater light than we see ourselves. "Come as you are" No doubt. I, like many people, used to be under the false impression that Christ couldn't love me in the state I was in. I sure didn't love me. He loves me just as much now as he did back then. Unconditional means no conditions. Word. The more I loved him back, the less I wanted to do those things anymore. We all have a lot more growing to do, brotha. The moment I say "I've arrived! I am where I'm supposed to be!" is the moment I am truly lost. A little bit stronger than yesterday is good enough for me. Peace
