At the End



In the end
What will you do?
Will you forgive everyone?
For what they did to you

Will you hold a grudge to the grave?
Or let it all go
And be a free slave

Will you find resolution?
In a game you cannot win
Or take the hate with you
And give into the sin

Will you realize that nothing really matters?
Or that it ever did
Will you be at peace?
When they close the lid

Or will you continue to play the game
And hold onto your hate?
In the end what will you do?
Fight to the end
Or see your own peace thru?
