Break the Spell

 Laziness wraps around my day,
A silent thief that steals my way;
Though fire within me wants to rise,
It dims beneath those heavy sighs.

It pulls me down like gentle chains,
Soft excuses, sweet remains;
I fight a little—then give in,
Like a helpless child within.

Time slips past in quiet defeat,
Dreams fall down at my own feet;
Oh God, lift me from this haze,
Guide my steps through brighter days.

Give me strength to stand and start,
Discipline within my heart;
No more surrender, no delay
Lead me on the rightful way.
