Clean

 Clean

I’m not a fool

I’ve been tool

And hurt so many 

I can’t ignore

My life before

I became aware

Of what I said

What I had done

I’m not that man

Anymore

I won’t deny

How horrible 

I was but not

Anymore 

I’ve said my peace

Confessed my sins

And begged forgiveness 

So am I clean

I am aware

I was there

Being a slick snake 

You were bruised

By the abuse 

From my foolishness

I was so wrong

How I behaved 

But that was then

And not now

I rebuke me

All of my sins

That was the past

And not now 

I’ve said my peace

Confessed my sins

And begged forgiveness 

So am I clean

As I run through all the trauma I cause 

I try to atone for everything I’ve done

To be clean

As I accept the man that I should be

I try to no longer deflect the blame I’m due

To be clean

I’ve said my peace

Confessed my sins

And begged forgiveness 

So am I clean
