Just thinking

More people believe in Hell than they believe in Heaven.
I got scared into religion stuff back at age seven.

Wait… Wait… Give me time to make it make sense.
Cause I got a natural-haired lady that would kill me talkin like dis.

All I’m saying is…
Are we granted to enter those pearly gates from the way we live.

Ok. Ummm… Let me get this straight.

I can mess up and come back as long as I ask for forgiveness.
But if I KNOW I can mess up and come back am I asking for permission?

I gotta get better with cussin, but I don’t drink and I don’t smoke.
But I’m in church huffin, cause all this running and jumpin like you gotta be in shape to catch the Holy Ghost.

So, I don’t believe I ever caught him.
Money looking funny. Tithes and Offerings? Sometimes…
So, I know I never bought him.

Dad taught me that if you think long, you think wrong.
So that man up on the throne
Is the reason I didn’t wake up on my own.
That means I owe him more convos than, “Lord, help me with THESE LOANS”!

Yep, so I ain’t stupid.
All those church lessons and choir sessions didn’t end up being useless.

And no I can’t explain it all.
But while I’m still standing tall…
To Jesus is who I give the credit yall.

My car ended up on the side of the highway before A&T,
in the rain, trying to catch a meal.
It’s as simple as A&B,
That two more inches coulda had a tree in my windshield.

So, Imma stop playing church
And Imma stop doing dirt.
Well… I use that last term loosely.
Cause last week she threw it at me, and I ain’t mean to catch it, but it stuck to me.

But if you ever get like me and start to question sometimes…
Just make up your mind…
That the Bible ain’t lyin…

Bringing it back around, you know what’s right so continue to steps.
Every blessing I Thank Him.
And when I’m down, I just say, “Lord, I need your help”!
