I Am Why

I am what you were promised
I am what brought you low
I am what you did wrong
and caused your tears to flow

I am certain that you know me
I am quite sure you feel my lash
I know you have me justified
That's why you dinna fash

You feel you have been done wrong
This just simply isn't true
It's always one's own actions
That cause the grief to brew

So put your sorrow down and
pull the last shard from your heart
Stand up straight, acknowledge me
You'll have a brand new start

You need never know my wrath again
You need never feel that pain
To know freedom in your universe
You need only to be sane.
