Digging Deep

so now hold your breath

and set the stage

prepare yourself for the cynic's rage

is it a question still of who is man?

or how they feel and what i am

but digging deep i found a way

what more do i need to say

gone through life and death

and what remains

if any blemish hang your head in shame

like a fever that just keeps you down

would you simply let it stay around?

'digging deep' i guess i say

is more pridefulness of that day

in truth i know that it is clear

i was distant, God is near

in the goodness and strife

found and empty wanting life

though so long made no sound

with tears i bowed myself down

won't you greet this man

and hear his words

maybe an open ear would make him stir

could a closed heart have saved all man?

digging deep i guess i say

is more pridefulness of that day

in truth i know that it is clear

i was distant, God is near

so now hold your breath and set the stage

prepare yourself for the cynics rage

is it a question still of who is man?

or how they feel and what i am
