The Rant

The Rant

By: D. Booyer

It's truly sad that most men are just trying to get laid,

it's also sad that some girls do it just so they get paid,

the morals of society are swirling down the drain,

most people today don't care for not but their own gain,

is something wrong with our society that makes morals seem so odd?

we are a portrait of a people that have walked away from God.

The media is full of images of sex and drugs and death,

which makes committing sin as common as drawing breath,

we take our wants from others leaving them with their pain,

then we drown our continence in a bottle or put a needle in our vein,

you say people do not imitate or that it's really not that bad?

try telling that to the girl next door who got raped by her dad.

One generation follows the next in a cycle of hurt and shame,

we teach hate and sin to our children and they grow up to do the same,

through our actions and our words do our children learn,

what we pass to ours they pass to theirs when it is their turn,

so how do we save our children from our sorry state?

we must repent our sins and turn to God before it is too late.

You may take this as just some psycho's rant,

I'd say that I could blame you, but really I just can't,

to see the world the way I do you'd need the eyes I had,

if you had seen the things I have they would surly drive you mad,

do I think that I am a perfect man like some cannoned saint?

I know my soul is twisted round my own past's murky taint.

I bow my head and pray to God to save me from myself,

but it's hard to put the past away it can't be put up on some shelf,

I can't forgive myself for things that were done to me by someone else's hand,

and the things the world has thrown at me that was more than I could stand,

how can I raise my family and make things better off for them?

The answer is to pray to God and give myself to him.

it may not be that good, but it is the way I felt...
