God...Can we talk?

Ever since I was a child

I was told that the world was ending

They tell me to believe in God

But I find it kinda hard

To believe in an invisible man

I try to comprehend and understand

How you create heaven and earth

And do all these spectacular miracles

But you can’t stop all the pain and  hurt

that people face every single day

You tell us to stay on the right pathway

and follow the words that’s in the bible

But I found too many contradictions

to me that makes the bible unreliable

My grandparents told me never to question God

But there is so much that I need to know

Why did you punish Adam and eve

from touching the forbidden tree?

The garden of Eden was supposed to be holy

So how did the devil get in?

They say you know it all

Before they were created

you knew Adam and Eve would fall

Is heaven and hell real?

Or is it all part of man’s plan to control the masses?

Why did your only son have to die

So we can be saved?

Could you have just saved us

without sparing your son’s life

or was that story all a lie?

Please excuse my attitude, not trying to be rude

but did Jesus really feed the multitude,

made the blind see, the lame walk?

Did he really change water to wine

Or am I crossing the line

Why did you test job and his wife?

Did he do something wrong?

From what I read

It seem like you did it because of a bet

you and the devil made

That man lost everything that he loved so dear

He almost lost his life

Yes, he kept the faith and didn’t curse you

But I think he did it mostly out of fear

I see people who are faithful and just

Struggle and get treated badly

While those who curse you and don’t even believe

get blessed and live a lavish lifestyle

but in you we must trust

back when I was young I was molested

was that all part of your plan or was I being tested?

That night when I was physically abused

Where were you?

That almost drove me insane

I ain’t gon’ lie

I thought I was about to die

Why didn’t you stop the pain?

I stood over my abuser with a butcher knife

My plan was to take their life

You put too much on me at an early age

Maybe that’s why my heart is filled with so much rage

How can I show love

When it was never shown to me

Every day it seem like I have to fight

Between wrong and right

just to live my life your way

look at how my life started

what do you expect me to say?

I guess you could say I’m cold hearted

What if all this is made up

praying to thin air

and to a God who really doesn’t care?

What if all this is really true

And our purpose is to tell others about you?

I guess time will tell

I just hope I don’t choose the wrong side

And open my eyes in hell
