Dead Intentions

I have been intending to pray today
But my day just slipped away
I woke up late I could not sit quiet
All day on the rush, now the sun has set
My body aches, my soul is weary
I am still intending to pray early
Before sleep overtakes my eyes
And my intention dies.

I have been intending to save young
But my income is never enough
I have a side hustle to complement
A busy schedule as a complement
My start scares my ends to meeting
I am still intending to start saving
Before living overtakes my life
And my intentions strife

I have been intending to do great
But my dreams seem not to fit
I try this and try that and fail
A jack of all, now I trail
My passion is turning into greed
I am still intending to plant my seed
Before change of seasons hinder
And my intentions wither.

I have been intending to live right
But my sins are as red as scarlet
I have bad examples to point at
A reason why the narrow path I can't
My hope is that hell I will miss
I am still intending to stop the tease
Before death unites me with serpent
And my soul has no to time to repent.

I am still intending
