Not political. Just a grateful sinner saying "thank you Jesus!".
Came here "alone" - no wits but my own
Don't need no God. Got this fine facade.
Grew up, skinned my knees - learned "thank you" and "please"
It's all covered, Lord - elsewhere I'll go toward.
Becoming "adult" - I don't need no "cult"
Learned well on the street - no vow? then no cheat
So "free" without scorn - no conscience to warn
Man, brandy is good! TV says that I should!
I knew it, I'm right! Shame is good - hid from sight
Oh yeah! She said "yes" - don't need you to bless
Feet made of clay - so it's "natural" this way
Cruising along - "Free will can't be wrong!"
"Hey wait, who's this kid?" - Out of me, came he hid?
Still, what's this pang? This "narking" harangue
Here's what to do - test the word so untrue
Something's awry, something is amiss
The old man must die? to receive your bliss?
Okay, whatever. Home to drink, watch a game
He thinks He's clever - cause He knows my name!?
Pesky light, GO AWAY! Leave me to devices
Saying "Hey, it's okay! - Your ways have no prices."
So, what of my past? Lord, what can I do?
Such power it has - to keep me from you.
You say that's his trick? The king of this world
Guilt making me sick, in a fetal ball curled?
Deny you, I won't. Lies' author, be damned!
Let him chant his rant - by your truth, he is slammed
By your grace liberty - awaits one and all
Your blood makes us free. Strong, weak, big and small.
Lord, thanks for the light. Without it we're lost.
Your way is so bright - for by you, it was Crossed.
The Ways of this World are Worlds from His Way. Choose wisely.
