They testify.
Others testi-lie.
They quote the scriptures often and many of times.
Which many barely live by.

Whether they ministers of church members.

We walk by faith and not by site.
But it that's site that makes many ponder their faith.
When we see the things they do.

Oh, we can do anything through Christ that strengthen us.
But the power of strength deals with showing just simply you can love.

They quote the scriptures and still willing to fight.
In the church parking lot.
Or at the clubs and bars at night.

And quickly professes God's not through with me yet.
As if the new creature within us reappeared to be guided by Satan.
Instead of the power of the Lord.

God is good.
Can't be eradicated from that.
He never created our personal mess.

Don't warp it into something that never was.
Just a game we played inside our heads with our hearts.

Failed predictions of a future that could never be.

You'll only ever be you.

I'll only ever be me.

Time when imminent begins
when the twins start to smoke
money for old rope
new lamps for old
give me your lead
and I'll turn it to gold.

Pay your tax and relax
you've got nothing to do
pay the rent and the
home's free
they've got nothing on you.

When imminent begins
when the fat lady sings
when you're out of the frying pan
and into the fire
we'll see who the liars are then.

There is thunder afoot
I don't think it's a train
more machinations
to imagine a brain
that never sleeps
always keeps
an eye
on the background.
