For You People

-For You People-
by Keaton Foster


For you people
I’ll continue
For you people
I’ll try this
For you people
Forcing the acceptable
For you people
Withholding doubt
For you people
I’ll pretend
For you people
Accepting things as is
For you people
I’ll refuse further inquiry
For you people
I’ll seek no more answers
For you people
I’ll shut the hell up
For you people
I’ll play right along
For you people
A lesser wolf I’ll be
For you people
Consumption minimal
For you people
I’ll regret more than before
For you people
I’ll do what is required
For you people
I return to the alter
For you people
I’ll sink myself in belief
For you people
Telling every truth
For you people
Believing every lie
For you people
I’ll betray all that I am
For you people
I’ll never look back
For you people
I’ll only see tomorrow
For you people
Embracing my maker
For you people
Betraying my creation
For you people
Whatever it will take
For you people
I’ll be ready
For you people
I’ll be willing
For you people
I’ll risk everything
For you people
Forsaking just as much
For you people
Doing what you require
For you people
I’ll turn on my very being
For you people
I’ll switch off my mind
For you people
I’ll shut down my heart
For you people
I’ll do what I must
For you people
I’ll stand in the house of God
For you people
Looking into his eyes
For you people
Receiving his forgiveness
For you people
Embracing such wisdom
For you people
If only for a second
For you people
I’ll do what must be done
For you people
I’ll live under the same sun
For you people
I won’t forget any of this
For you people
I won’t forgive myself for the same
For you people
I’ll do what must be done
Of you people
I’ll ask of nothing in return…
