Holy is thee

Holy is thee

Holy isn't me

as your baptized in holy water while I

was baptized in durty water

Clean water suppose to wash away the impurities from man's elements

Water that washes over me seems to turn to filth

Everything I touch

turns to dust

Everything I own

fits inside of a box

and my heart is left without beats

My soul is left dying

My eyes constantly crying

over the love I shall never recieve

But still I am baptized in durty water

I stand in the shower washing and washing

Washing until the pigment of my skin still remains

Brown

Brown seems to be looked down upon

So shun

Because of long ago

My how the world has grown but we still have racism

Racism has now gone underground

Waiting, hoping to spring forth again to spread

hatred

violence

as it sleeps

but still I'm baptized in durty water

Tell me when America is going to realize that the bible say we

must not study WAR NO MORE

WAR NO MORE

WAR NO MORE

While our children lie helplessly amongst the battlefields

souls lost to violence

A war we can't control

A war we should have never fought

A war that has cost us so much

sacrifice

so much

pain

so much

poverty

but still I'm baptized in durty water

Tell me is the suffering ever going to cease

War increase

War increase

Gas increase

Gas increase

while our paycheck

decrease

decrease

as we use our paycheck to wipe our butts with

because it is all what we can use it for

Oh you want more, you want more

My car sees more of my paycheck than my house

sad

sad

sad

I tell ya

but must I

do I

deem myself a total failure

Did I put myself in this prediciment?

If I had oil of my own would I be stingy and hold on to it

and let

America, oh America

Suffer while I continue to buy oil elsewhere

Tell me could I

But still I'm baptized in durty water

There are other bigger problems that must be face

But when the ship sanked

Lets see if we can put a trace

on the culprit

that has us all crying

"LORD, HELP ME JESUS I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE"

as we all are baptized in durty water

to be continued.............

i see you're questioning this "place'

the realness of it

and you see the durty water is just part of the "programming"

you real problem is and always will be

the printing of worthless money

that we use everyday

and it's continuous dictatorship on the way we think and behave

America is not about freedom

it's a cash cow for the people who print this worthless paper money

that we live and die for everyday

also known as

The Quiet War

ssshhhhh

don't tell nobody

they won't understand until they're laying in the gutter
