Forever No More - Mary J. Blige

作词：Mary J. Blige

作曲：Mary J. Blige

No more invisible speechless deaf and blind child

With neglected pleasures being addicted to denial

Floating through time gravitating towards a warm arm

With an appetite for the emptiness that promises no harm

No more uncontrollable eruptions of emotional depression

A primal S O S from the barren prison of selfless expression

That only the guilty with innocent souls know

Buried in a social scar tissue of a defective ego

No more relentless sifting through bodies seeking self

Settling through competitive combat for what's left on the shelf

A mad melee of supply and demand driven by a gullible pride

That leads to sedating the you that suffocates inside

No more forever no more because I've unshut my eyes

And the difference between God's word and man's will was realized

Seeing opposed and parallel lives some liquid and others frozen

Led me to never seek from man what God has chosen

Then the negative whispering subsided and the panicking ceased

The undercurrent suppression of pent up terror was released

As the mystery of the unknown manifested pristine clear

A positive message of truth entered my ear

Now across my face is a brand new smile

With the newly revealed meaning of a destined child

A message of hope is being released from my heart

And I am overwhelmed with dedication to do my part

All I ever wanted was to be what as I once was unbounded

Somehow it got all twisted and before long sounded

As though life was a continuous connive thrive drive

Choking out the simple joy of just being alive

Now I am filled with love and I sing a love song

A song for yesterday today tomorrow and beyond

My new prayer is thank you God for setting me free

And thank you God for giving me back me
