The story continues with Benjamin's thoughts about what he has done since the previous time we heard from him.
To clarify all the songs that have been written here may or may not be about me. Some are fictional, some are based on real events.
5. Letter to God
I have done some bad things in my life
But I know you will always stand by my side
Your wish we all should learn to obey
But it's difficult with a city in disarray
I am in shock I have to do these things
But I know the correct things need to be done
And despite that today it might us sting
It will be better for all of us in the long run
God surely you have a master plan
And I'm a person in your hands
You are the patron that watches from above
And gives us hope, wishes and lots of love
I can still see nightmares of all the people
Screaming and trying to escape the flames
The flames that I made and were in my control
It's much worse in reality than in a videogame
People don't realize there's a huge sacrifice
That needs to be made, but they are too afraid
And of course those things they will despise
And they won't see the bigger picture instead
God surely you have a master plan
And I'm a person in your hands
You are the patron that watches from above
And gives us hope, wishes and lots of love
I have no regrets
Not a single one
I've removed big threats
Those had to be done
This was a good talk
My good and only friend
I now have to walk
We'll talk later
Sincerely
Ben
God surely has a master plan
And we are all ready on his demand
Although we might not always understand
We can always count on our creator's mighty hands
Again I would appreciate any questions or comments in the comment section below.

If this is a song, I'm assuming that you're Christian? In my opinion, this seems like more of a poem, or possibly even a prayer than a song. That doesn't mean it's bad though, because I found the whole thing very touching and I think that it is a beautiful piece of writing. Really. Good. The only thing I might change would be the last stanza. Because the satnza before it ended with 'Sincerely Ben', it feels as though it should've ended there. Maybe that last bit could be put somewhere else...? Yeah, I'm not too sure on what you could do without just taking the whole stanza out, which would be a shame because those last two lines of it are possibly my favourite out of the entire piece.
sooooooooo... keep up the good work
