MAN OF GOD
Man of God pretending to be a man god,
Why do I need to bow before you?
Present myself a living sacrifice to you because you sit on your invisible thrown.
What makes you worthy of my devotion and unfailing love and support?
You touch and you hold so many but none are sacred to you.
You figure you are a blessing to me because during sex I call your name,
But there is nothing left of me when you walk away but shame.
I shed my pride and dignity just to get a glimpse of you.
Then before I can say that I have laid eyes on the prize you have disappeared.
Man of God pretending to be a man god, Why do I need to tithe to you?
Bring into your store house all my earnings, for the mere ten percent of effort you give in return.
Then you leave me empty handed as you go on to give unto others what you took from me.
I turn my meager spread into feasts to lay before you and watch you devour each morsel. But I am in a deep hunger for your time, your attention, your affection.
Lead astray by your intricate web of lies and deception
A sheep not only separated from the flock, but also from myself.
Man of God pretending to be a man god, Why should I sing your praise?
Hoarse from praying that you would do right by me. My weeping has endured for 40 days and 40 nights; my eyelids have not parted from one another
As the agony keeps my eyes closed wishing to not bear witness to my own death by your hands.
You are the snake in the garden, enticing me to eat my fill knowing destruction will come.
Too tired to lift mine eyes until the hills where my help comes from
Because now I am spiritually, mentally, and emotionally defeated
Man of God pretending to be a man of God.
