Are you in or out?
The stake is your soul

Play with religion
Holy fire matches
Strike it on whatever surface holds a flame
Cause someone might need to burned at the stake

Save yourself
If it saves you.
I did
And I have one foot off the boat I jumped in
Because if you put it in another
You're going to ride the current in two different directions
Sacrificing reason

So balance on the edge
Or build your own ark

Someone takes the wrong branch in the river
And they'll have a white water of a ride
And a waterfall at the finish line
Didn't know you could drown in fire?

God is a very real thing
Hell is a very real place
But use your own paddle when you row your own race

God never soul-***** anyone
So it's your choice to follow
Truth sets people free
Or it leaves them be

I'm not sure if I'm on the Battleship any more
To go out in a blaze of glory
Or is the boat just sinking?

They run out of lifeboats eventually
And in the end, you may just let go of the raft when there's plenty of room and totally give up any hope, causing one of the greatest irritations in all the world of film.

But you may have angel wings
"Jack, I Feel like I'm flying"
Or you watch as an unsinkable hope
Folds up into the same ocean
That God used to **** all but about six people and a zoo
Giving the rest burials at sea and Watery graves

But wood saves,
A few pairs of animals
Moses' staff
And some clay tablets
And at the end of their story
They're broken down into few pieces
And **** a carpenter
Who at least feed 12,000 people
And brought kegs to the wedding reception
Healing the sick
Teaching love, joy, peace, kindness and faithfulness

Something the whole world needs
But cut those false image bearing hands off the body

Gods image fits on a Sistine Chapel
Because people are afraid of him
Paint a heresy
But don't let the Pope know

I'd like to see the pedophiles get god smacked
Rapists get smit
Something of remote justice

When was slavery ever allowed to exist

Sinners get off easy and...
premaritally

But don't watch ****
Or smoke or drink
Ever
"Thou shalt surely die"

West Boro bombshells
Are gonna make for a pretty hot show
When you know they're going to Hell for what they did
For the Bible tells you so.

Just let the preacher get to that slide in his PowerPoint by next Sunday
See ya then
Pray about it?
God bless
XXOO

Because brotherly kisses were just a cultural thing
And we only like side-hugs
