Guys this is the demo version as i have to clean up some pops in the vocals and clicks in the beat... the perfectionist in me wanted to wait for the finished article but i committed to getting u guys something today so i thought i would throw out the demo version and in the next couple of weeks i will make it all official... once again my apologies for the delay and technical issues.

On a serious and sad note... to my Sister and her family that weep right now....you are the reason i am driven to fulfil this dream. It isnt appropriate for me to say more right now but know that i love you all with all my heart and His name will be remembered in all i do for the rest of my life. with your blessing i will say more on the final version. I luv you Tray, W & L. R.I.P beloved ACM.

to my Thandie i love you with all of my heart....

Thanks Phil for the advice :-)

...and to my homegirl Grace dont stress i got u for many more tracks to come still!!!
lyrics
Open My Eyes!

Hook:
Open my eyes... to see.... the truth... about my life!
Open my eyes... Open my eyes....!

V1
It all started as a youth
I must confess
Coz if I say some and leave out little bits
Then it can't be the truth...
I was confused
As I parted from my roots
And abused freedom given
Coz it lacked the reproof
My excuse to be obtuse
Was like look
"I don't believe"
So I don't need to hear
But now translucent
I must give u the facts
now of light
But my beginning was black
I was a sinner
It was grimmer in fact
Bring up the past
And u string out a path
Littered with lies
And relationships
Diminished by pride
And darkness
I was young
Alone with no guidance
So when me and life collided
I cried for Jesus Christ to
(open my eyes....)

V2
To the unknowing eye
I was composed in my life
But I walked a dark road in denial
Unexposed to the fire
The trials
hadn't arrived
So in pride I walked on emotionless astride
Now underneath all the lyrics
U can feel its the spirit
Coz the conviction in the diction
Gives me shivers
Oh... I see....
U want specifics....
U want the very instance
When God told me to listen:
He said: "I've given u today as a witness
To every word written In the scriptures"
Thus said the Lord in my vision....
as i lay in a pool of blood
it was depicted
And my character shifted
Reminiscing brings me hope when I'm tried
I go back to the moment I cried
When I was hopeless inside
I was almost homeless despised
But it all changed when I prayed
For my saviour to
(Open me eyes)

V3
Scales dropped from my eyes
As I cried
to the most High
All night
As I reprised
all my sins all the lies all the times
Lord knows
Id walked on the broad road
I'd been blind
But Now
I looked at my life
How I'd despised the fold
I saw em with worn clothes
But my pride
Had me livin unapposed
Eyes closed
Heart frozen to the woes of those
That stood close
But they didn't know the war in my soul
The lack of any hope
I was a sinner and a foe
To all that was Holy
And so when the Lord dealt His blow...
He told me....to be clean
All my sins... had to go...
But How.....I didn't know
So I got on my knees all alone
Then He showed me
Jesus is the way
The truth
The life
Amazed
I shook
I cried
As Jesus Christ opened my eyes!

please forgive the typo's
