My God

Sinking in the cold like a falling star

Looking in to where you are

Trying hard to keep it all together

Isolated I'm the modern leper

Drop your eyes at the sight of me

Cuz I been labeled H.I.V

All you wanna know is "How did he get it?"

Justify it, then forget it

Do you really think you're any better?

Cuz you blood don't bear three acarlet letters

When we meet again it'll be in heaven

I hope the shock won't be too sudden

My God doesn't hand out disease as a punishment

My God doesn't look with joy on your torment

My God doesn't draw back His hand from any child

My God lives to touch and heal and reconcile

Here you come with a gun in your hand

Gonna stop abortion at your command

Could ya really see Jesus pull that trigger?

What makes you tick? How do you figure that?

Your murder is some holy thing?

A misguided killer the same as them

Some fight this fire, you fan the flame

Thanks to the press we bear your shame

A full circle we're almost there

Another death, you'll get the chair

We've always refused to understand

Revenge does not belong to any man

My God doesn't call His people to judge and kill

My God doesn't need your guns to bring His will

My God doesn't upon some doctor's grave

My God screams, "Vengeance is mine I will repay"

In the corner looking right at her

She's just an object in your world

Your greed exists, so do your intentions

But her interest is you own invention

Woman aren't yours to dominate

We're equal halves of something great

Male and female He created

Eternally linked and integrated

My God doesn't hold man over woman

My God's image lives and breathes in every human
