Analysis of Sometimes I'm Insecure



Sometimes I feel like life's a blur
Because sometimes I'm insecure.
I often try to rearrange
Conditions I can never change.
I cannot reinvent the wheel
Nor build mousetraps with more appeal.
But when I fear embarrassment
Like those that fate has often sent,
My faith is sometimes drowned by fear
Which causes hope to disappear.
So I must learn the way to swim
To God and always trust in Him!
