      Mama’s going crazy

      Daddy’s drunk again

      He gave her a black eye

      Well she rattled his brain

      You know the worst is my pain

      You see my sister keeps on taking

      Though the neighbors say no

      If she gets caught oh my

      What she reap she gone sow

      Brother I say he no better

      Running amuck through town

      His friends going to give him a gift

      That has him six foot down

      Mine eyes has seen enough

      All painted in misery

      So preacher says a word to me

      As I fall on bended knees

      They call His name

      Cry out His fame

      But the truth be known

      Their fruits are rotten once grown

      They lay hands on the sick

      Ask for strength for the weak

      Yet if you cut away their layers

      You’d see only evil embracers

      They tell you Shout out loud!

      Saying, only in Christ we are proud!

      But if angels sang their deeds

      The song would be Devil’s Creed

      So be careful of this viperous brood

      Who seek wealth and fame in the name of good

      Pharisees

      Bills I can’t pay keep calling

      Debts I owe keep knocking

      Yet I have no means to answer

      Patiently I seek

      Hoping this wall I’ll breach

      Seeking freedom from this enslaving life

      Preacher man says hold on

      And do all I can
