I bumped into God the other day
he was looking pretty sad
I guess he’s kinda dissappointed
bout all the stuff that’s going bad.
It seems it isn’t working out
the way he had it planned
we’re supposed to love each other
and all things upon this land
we’re supposed to love our neighbours
no matter how they look
not hate and try to **** them
because they read a different book
and we’re all created equal
not one better than the other
and we’re all part of one family
every man here is my brother
we’re supposed to love our children
and teach them right from wrong
not raise them via videos
but take the time to make them strong
but somehow we seem to lose the plot
people, church and state
instead of living peace and love
its all intolerance and hate
So I asked how it feels
to have all this done in his name
at which he looked me in the eye
and said he felt ashamed
churches serving churches
abusing children hiding truth
amassing wealth beyond comparison
then making us pay for the roof
spreading hate and not forgiveness
preach sacrifice practice greed
while enough gold adorns the altars
all the starving for to feed
So I asked him why he told me this
as he crossed me off some list
He said “Because I knew that you would listen,
because you don’t think that I exist”
He explained that he’s in all of us
always has been, always will
that he loves if we go to church
and if we don’t he loves us still
I think I understand it now
its what he says that counts not him
so the values in the message
and the message lies within
