If I placed a penny in the church collection plate?
Judge me not.
It just might be all I got.

If I place a dollar in the offering?
Judge me not.
It serves the same person as those that put in a lot.
Just judge me not.

Don't place a guilty burden on my soul.
All my blessings within the offering I give.
I know If I had more to give I would.
And in time God knows I will.
Just judge me not.

It's not your place.

I walked into your church.
Instantly you looked and judged me.
I turn and departed your church.
Still, you judge me.

Like those on the last roll that get up and leave.

Here I was seeking salvation for my lost soul.
But left totally lost back into despair.

Was it my clothes?
Was it myself?
Was it something in you that God hadn't left upon your heart?
If it was then you most in need of the Lord.

I went to another church and was accepted.
They saw in me what you didn't?
A person searching for a house to say thank you, lord.
And not once was I judged.

Not once was I looked down upon.
Not once was stares of evil placed my way.

When I came upon you?
You were in tears many running down your face.
And I comfort you with just simple words.

Cause I've been where you been?
I have been hurt you.
Comparing myself to a fool.

I didn't know this.
Never even seen it coming my way.
That within time, we would be falling in love.

All because a tear that was dripping down your cheek.
A sadness if I must say.
And here we are standing here today.
I didn't know
Didn't know
TAhat we would fall in love.

Yes, yes I didn't know this.

Money is an attraction.
Mainly works like a magnet.
So it's amazing to many these lawsuits going on is taking advantage of lately.

Romance without finance isn't an art suddenly created.

Never been.

Financial gains assisted many to get where they at?
But when pushed on certain issues in life.
Now they the victim.

Really?
Hold secrets so long.
Other victims come along because you didn't speak.

Money, model, and fame.
It's only a problem when some don't get their way.

In our history holds bad.
In our history holds sadness.
But we can't eliminate it like it doesn't exist to be known.

Universities removing statue and names of a building.
Which is amusing to many?
Some of the best slave owners are on all the dollars.

Yes, these dead presidents that grace them.
Well, except for Ben were slave owners and most likely Franklin too.
It was accepted.

Many corporations saying this or that presently and have a deep history going back several decades.
Has a past rooted in some form of discrimination?
Are we protesting them?
Are we avoiding them?

Some of the unions were driven in racism too.
Our history is what drives us to go forth to be greater?

Some crying about racism the most fail to realize the secrets within their own.

Removing their names from building and places

Uhura, what country?
Did she come from?
Well, most likely America.

But you must ponder about Star Trek that all the regions they went.
They never encounter anyone of African heritage.
Then or not.

After all, it mirrors the Twilight Zone, in terms of dealing with past or present facts or fictional events.

What race could protest?
We have a past to visit like some shows took upon.
And dealing with the future, who knows what to come?
