Possession Poem by: Mattie Stepanek
Song Written by: Mark Morton & Randle Chowning

Originally performed by: n/a Search for audio clips of this song

One of my greatest fears is "It."
I can't touch it, but I can feel it.
It does not have a taste or smell,
But I can hear it in my spirit.

It is deep inside of me,
It makes me fear my memory
One day I'll live peacefully,
Without the fear of "It."

It is something I can't see
It can never possess me
It is something I can't see
It always tries to take control,
I can defeat it if I believe it.

It is deep inside of me
It makes me fear my memory
One day I'll live peacefully
Without the fear of "It."

It keeps running through my mind
I have to fight it time and time
And time and time and time
And time again...

It is deep inside of me
It makes me fear my memory
One day I'll live peacefully
Without the fear of "It."

The more I understand about it
The less my world revolves around it
Then I can just live out my life
Without the fear of "It."

Yup, it is an awesome song!!! i loved it everytime i listen to it. And I'm gonna try to answer the questions people asked... At first i didn't know what 'It' was either, but then i figured it out. "It" is Possession. Having the fear of something taking over you. In Mattie's case, it can be the fear of death, and not having enough time to make the difference he wants to make in the world. But to us, he did make a diffence
