Breaking Point © by Dan Hunter

Everyday I try to have some hope
Reading the Word to see how to cope
My life is rapidly getting tasteless
All these failures are adding up
And they’re giving me a lot of stress

Not being able to pay my house bills
Forcing me to live bill by bill
Which gives me the chills
Thinking things can't get any worse
Something always makes these matters worse

My check hasn't arrived yet
But it's already gone out of my net
Trying to force myself to think this will soon end
Although nothing is stopping this horrible trend

Trying to get another income
So that I can change this outcome
Unsuccessful once again I sit in the dark
Asking myself, why does my future look so stark?

If you stand at the beach
You can contemplate the waves’ breaking point
And to be honest
Now you can contemplate my own breaking point

Everything keeps on crashing down at once
And my shoulders are not strong enough to hold up
I still don't know, how come I have this stance?
Frequently thinking on giving up

This is how I feel
And probably many of you can relate to how I feel
Maybe your baby daddy ran away
Or your mother kicked you out of the house
Preferring to keep the mouse

Probably you got pregnant during a one night stand
Now with no one willing to ask for your hand
Who knows, maybe a relative tried molesting you
Now crying at night is all you do
These might be your breaking point

But you know what?
Through our breaking point
We must smile to strengthen our joints
Surrendering only to Him
Yahweh is His name
The one who’s grace we claim

Probably not having everything we want
And we might sometimes speak very rant
But His promises are made reality in our calamity
During this point His strength is felt the most
So this breaking point
Our breaking point
May also be our saving point
