I did not get baptized to be saved

I got baptized because it was a phase

Something to do in the church I was raised in

Don’t blame me for this saying

I’m not a saint I was only eight

Made to do things I did not want to do

Embarrassing things I hate to do

Cursing the elders under my breath

The law was the belt and the cord

Platforms toy car tracks the strike zone

In the middle of the back always hit home

Took my breath away tried to speak

But couldn’t say “Lord help me please”

Set in pews sick of listening to pastor

Spitting chicken and liquor all over me

Choir singing, at the cross at the cross

Where my soul was lost wearing patent leather

Shoes with no gloss coz the shine was torn off

So many times in the world I’ve been hurt

but only God knows, I was wounded by the church ✒
