Looking for something that lives inside me
Looking for something that lives inside me

I recently resigned from my employment
I'm gonna find new drive
I am determined to discover a new sense of motivation
Damn, they work me so damn hard
They exhaust me with an excessive workload

We repeat the same patterns, endlessly

We experience highs and lows, feeling both lost and found simultaneously
Searchin' for love (yeah, yeah)
Seeking love persistently
Looking for something that lives inside me
Seeking something that resides within my being

URGENT I WAS A TRANSSEXUAL AND I ASKED GOD TO SHOW ME IF HELL WAS REAL. And God took me THERE. I HEAR SCREAMS OF DESPERATION, SAW THOUSANDS OF SOULS FALLING, DESPERATE. I SAW MY GRANDFATHER WHO DIED OF A HEART INFARCTION BECAUSE HE DRINK A LOT OF ALCOHOL! MY GRANDFATHER WAS CRAWLING ON THE FLOOR AND CALLING FOR HELP. I SAW A WOMAN BEING TORTURED, THEY HAD BIG NAILS UNDER HER FEET. AND WHEN SHE STOPPED DANCING THE NAILS GET INTO HER BONES AND FEET! SHE LOOKED AT ME WITH A DESPERATE LOOK. THEN I TURNED BACK TO EARTH AND CALLED A FRIEND AND MY MOTHER TO TELL ME EVERYTHING I SAW. I was shaking and desperate with fear that I had seen so many terrible things in hell. TODAY I READ THE CHRISTIAN BIBLE, I AM A CHRISTIAN, I FOLLOW THE COMMANDMENTS OF THE WORD OF GOD, BECAUSE THE BIBLE TEACHES YOU EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW! YOU MUST REPENT AND CONVERT FROM YOUR SINS TO LIVE IN HEAVEN! YOU NEED TO RECOGNIZE JESUS CHRIST AS ONE AND SUFFICIENT SAVIOR OF YOUR LIFE. NO ONE GOES TO GOD WITHOUT GOING THROUGH JESUS CHRIST! GOD THE FATHER, SON JESUS CHRIST, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD! THE HOLY TRINITY. HELL IS TERRIBLE AND CRUEL YOU CAN'T GO THERE. JESUS CHRIST LOVES YOU SO MUCH AND SO DO I. THANKS FOR READING THIS MESSAGE. TODAY I ASSUME MY BOY IDENTITY, I REMOVE THE SILICONE PROSTHESIS, CUT MY HAIR AND WAITING FOR JESUS CHRIST'S RETURN TO TAKE US TO HEAVEN. YOU CAN SEE PHOTOS AND VIDEOS OF WHEN I WAS A WOMAN ON MY OFFICIAL INSTAGRAM BY GLEISON GOES. JESUS CHRIST IS COMING BACK. AWAKEN URGENT 11w
