Man's Weight

Maybe I’m not strong enough, To carry man’s weight. My back wasn’t made For empty promises, lack of understanding. You feel no attraction to me. Yet, You yearn for me. You tell your father about Everything I do. You break chains For me. Where are Stonewall’s bricks? Thrown in windows, wooden Doors. Doors that mean nothing, Because my heart is elsewhere. Maybe God is not strong enough, To carry man’s weight. You use his name in vain, To carry out your warfare on A peaceful race.
