I’m lying here in distress, my face held to the ground.
My hands are bound behind my back, as I try to look around.
A man is kneeling on my neck, the pressure is immense.
Trying to move so I can breathe, but movement he can sense.
So now he presses harder, to hold me there in place.
I gasp to say “I cannot breathe “and look to see his face.
But I want to shout out louder, so others hear my plight.
Cause I can sense he doesn’t care; my spinning head brings fright.
What can I do to save myself? So quietly I pray.
To the 0nly One who’ll hear me now, no words I need to say.
I lose my sense of being there, my fears have gone away.
A bright light shines around me, I see a brand-new day.
I’m welcomed into hallowed arms, a place for me to rest.
All life’s stress has been removed and I know that I am blessed.
