Holy Sugar Water


Her holy sugar water use to be so sweet
Pure and gentle touches use to be so deep
Her vibe was so live and her stride was upright
Self esteem was so high with a smile so bright
I came face to face with her daily, in assurance of her return
Her eyes held wisdom of plenty lessons to learn
She gained knowledge from the streets, a few books, and the Heavens above
She maintained the strength  needed whenever push came to shove
Her holy sugar water use to be so sweet
Until the day she joined with the body she thought was just as deep
Holy hell and bittersweetness is what the two became
Warm and cold souls intertwined became category five hurricanes
Devastating aftermath is what she was left with to face
She thought she would never be the same again... but then came Amazing Grace
It surrounded her atmosphere and filtered all the debris
It brought mercy and favor along to help set her currents free
Her stone cold heart was revived as royal blood flowed through
She did away with the old and replaced it with all things new
New mentality, new ambition, new outlook on life
Now she never settles, speaks only once, and takes her time to think twice
She traded in what she wanted in exchange for the need of God’s will
She armors up with warfare prayers in the midst of the battlefield
Her holy sugar water use to be so sweet
Now her power is too sour for the minds that are weak
The blind cannot seem to hear her, and the deaf will never see
Their disabilities multiply when trying to comprehend that holy sugar water is me.
