Deeper Underground

Discover the blessing through this suffering
A tortured self: battered by terminal deceit
I gain my strength as a faithful observant
While trying to understand life's objectives

Discover the blessing through this suffering
At the peak of modern guises of insanity
I find my comfort through small window of hope
Realizing which stance I need to stand

Living as a painbearer in a narcissistic society
While everybody becomes oblivious to misery
Boasting false impressions of happiness
For the sake of getting social approvals
As what Jesus did to defend the powerless
The oppressed and vulnerable ones
He brightened the hopes of the castaways
While despised by religious leaders

My refuge is here in deeper underground
A dreadful place where light is needed
Better to seek mercy from down below
Than conquer the world from up above
