My Friend, the Enemy

By Levell Taylor



I have trapped myself again

Because I relied on an old friend

This friend I devoted my time and life

All that was brought was misery and strife

Made me at times to wish an end to my life

Again and again

I would turn to this friend

All I got was darkness and gloom when it came to the end

So I stopped and began to fight

And through it all I see a light

I stood my ground

Away from this friend I turn around

Through my Lord strength I found

Upon that day

When I pray

From this friend, I turn away

Be gone my friend

So I can live again
