Everyone of us has a past
Forgetting it is a must
Especially if it involves darkness
That memory should have thoroughly vanished.

Our wicked past appears like a chain
We've been stucked to it, nightmare remains
Chances are we keep looking on our back
Guilty of our sins, making all those tracked.

Most of the time, we're hurt of what happened
When someone wronged us, pain is retained
The scar that has been left that we're stripping
Now becomes fresh wound that keeps on bleeding.

On the other hand, there are some good memories
Which are worthy to recall and to cherish
Souvenirs of love, success and celebration
Letting our hearts be full of satisfaction.

Forgiving our enemies is the key
To have peace of mind, setting our hearts free
Holding the grudge will just make us bitter
Commend it to God, the past is over.

Leaving the past behind is the best thing to do
Learning from mistakes before we totally go
For God gives us many chances to be better
Move forward, do not dwell on the former.
