That's Not Me...Anymore, Brought to Light, and The Sin of Writing Such Words

That's Not Me...Anymore

  I have no answer for my past
  I said what I said and did what I did
  I learned and loved and loved to laugh
  With all the people who assumed that success is rigged
  For some reason I felt I had been denied something
6  I use to feel that life's failings are due to things dumb
  Processes that were coerced by a societal justice fleeting
  But now I know that the fallacy in my complaints
  Was acknowledging the power I was never bestowed
  So who I am now damaged and quaint
  Understands that there is nothing I am owed
12 I used to be lazy
  All I did was claim that I had been maneuvered to be low
  Because of my qualities incidental, just like I was taught and told
  What I now know
  Is that my life has always been by me controlled

Brought to Light 

  Shadows are scary
  Because what they hide
  May be hideous and pernicious
  But still, I am interested and suspicious
  I sought what darkness hid
6  And my thoughts it did scar
  But who's to blame for my cognition now morbid?
  Darkness didn't ask me to seek its heart, horrid
  Oh, what horror!

The Sin of Writing Such Words

  Jesus repented today
  Sin had befallen this entity
  Contrition the mission
  "Sorry for being created and abused
  Sorry for being used
6  Sorry for the propagated truths
  That only lied"
