Ok that’s it, I give up, I surrender!
I can’t get a fuckin’ break man?
….Whatever
What more can I do? I’ve done everything right
I can’t even sleep through one god dam lousy night
What's that you say?
I need God in my life?
Yeah, It’s done wonders for my neighbor
He is an alcoholic Minister, who beats his wife
Take a look around you, tell me what you see
Is this the way your God wants things to be?

Don’t get defensive.
I know for the most part religion is good
But just because you believe, don’t tell me I should
I’ve studied a lot of religions
Read the Bible and even the Quran
There is so much contradiction & anger
How one can believe in this crap, I just don’t understand

But here you are preaching to me
Telling me what Jesus would do
But before you say one word about me
Take a good look at you
Are there things you don’t have but wish you could?
Do you masturbate because it feels good?
Do you have thoughts of lust & desire?
Is it wealth you hope to acquire?
Now tell me HONESTLY how clean do you live?
Because No to those questions
Is the answer Jesus would give

You certainly can’t change my mind
I don’t want to change yours
Just make sure the next time you preach
It is behind closed church doors

And by the way if you talk to God
I think he should take a look next door
Maybe he could help the Minister’s black and blue wife up off the floor
