How can I explain
How can I explain the joy I feel?
At the same time explain the pain that is real.
How can I explain my thoughts for you to understand?
Or give you anything worth more than riches through empty hands.
How can I explain my spirit inside?
Or a resurrected life from a man who died. How can I explain a love so true?
Or even try to explain a love I never knew. How can I explain what’s wrong or what’s right?
When everything can be debated through one man’s sight.
How can I explain these words I express? Success is earned and through faith I am blessed.
How can I explain these tattoos on my skin?
To help you overlook my flesh to see the man from within.
How can I explain without a reaction from you?
To see another side of me from an attraction that grew.
How can I explain to you everything that I am?
For you to trust us enough for me to even take your hand.
How can I explain the direction of the wind?
To tell you where it came from or explain where the wind ends.
