Following My Road
Following my road
I fought my own battles
Hurt and pain
Are no strangers
When will I fall
And surrender in Your arms. [Mm? So far this is not making sense.]
Student of chance
Life of contradictions
For me nothing's set.
With nothing true
How can I know my way
When will I fall
And Surrender in Your arms. [Oh, I think I understand now. So the protagonist knows that he needs to surrender, but is unsure of his readiness to do so?]
In myself I cannot win. [Good sentence.]
I hold on, but the road's too long
If there is no truth, just what I think
Then what can I count on.
When will I fall
And surrender in Your arms. [I think you should replace "in" with "into".]
You Found me, I see you are
The warrior who never loses.
You showed me light, my eyes opened
You are the only truth
You came now my path is clear.
I fell down
And surrendered in Your arms. [Nice ending.]
[An overall critique of your writing style in general is that you could use more punctuation and fewer fragments (don't be afraid of complex sentence structures) in order to make more cohesive and understandable messages. Your ideas are great, and this would help you get them across in a manner that is easier on the reader.]

[i]Two vast and trunk-less legs of stone stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand, half sunk, a shattered visage lies. Round the decay of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare the lone and level sands stretch far away. On the pedestal these words are inscribed:
“My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!â€
