Debate

Expressing the wonders of intellectual refinement.

Debate me.
Debate me.
Tell me all the ways you hate me.
Say the things that frustrate me.

Debased in your humanity I find your thinking basic.
I look at darkness for all the ways I can replace it.
Grace has laced your name with its taste if you trace it.
Fear tried to get me to compromise but I erased it.

See that girl walking by and say “Hey Baby”.
Tell her I wish my hair was straight but it just stays wavy.
Put A-1 sauce on my corn.
Yeah I know it’s crazy.

Save me.
Save me.
Father in Your hands sometimes I feel lazy.
My gaze gets slightly off and things start to get hazy.

Renew me in Your eyes so I can see things saintly.
Proclaim Your name, oh Father I praise Thee.
Read that Bible daily.
Prepare for those who would debate me.

Author's Note

Based on “Hate Me” by Ellie Goulding ft. Juice WRLD. I enjoy baptizing the lyrics of songs that get stuck in my head.

I got to say it's fantastic.
I totally knew it was that song before i came down to read your note.
It's made out so beautifully and the way everything just rhymes.
Love the ending. I too desire for that to always be prepared so i can face anything.

Glad to hear it! Awesome to hear you're familiar with the song and you were able to connect with my version of it. Encouraged to be amongst a kindred spirit who also sees the beauty in the small things like preparation.
