I can't think of anything better.
Then knowing you love me.
I can't think of anything better.
Then knowing you sent your Son.
Though Tials and temptations soround me.
And tempt me to stray.
I look for your light. Your love.
And I find my way!
 
There is nothing better.
Then knowing you care!
There is nothing better!
Then knowing your always there!
Why, oh Lord do you love me?
After all I have done?
There is no reason I see.
For you to send your son!
 
But you did.
For a race that betrayed you.
But you did.
For a race that scorns your name.
But you did.
For race that hates you.
But you did.
I glorify you all the same!
 
I can't think of anything better.
Then knowing you love me.
I cant think of anything better.
Then knowing you sent your Son!
 
There is nothing better.
then glorifing your word.
There is nothing better.
then taking up your sword.
 
*please I do not relgious comments that are against my faith if you don't like the contex of my poem then do not ready it*

and i'd like nothing better than to delete this poem.
 
it is highly offensive.
it does nothing but perpetrate racial hatred & stereotypes.
 
 
and it's a lousy poem.

P.O.D.-person,

I'm gonna apologize right now but I'm gonna quote some Blackalicious all over the whup ass...

Jesus was a black man
jesus was batman
you can take your religion
out to the curb
in the garbage can.
you be jew, you be hindu
you be black, you be blind
the devil's GONNA GET YA
in your fat behind
gotta watch yourself
gotta look out for your brotha
gotta love your self
gotta love your mother

And that is all the sicky sweet sappy rhymey rhuemy shize i can take in one day, time for the Jews to take up arms with their Muslim brothers & sisters against crappy psuedo-christian apocalyptic crypto-fascist/aryan poems...

p.s. - I made up the lyrics, just to prove some point that I forgot what it was... yeah, I was dreaming of a planet that loved one another, then I woke up and read this... realized why we are always at war... F*CKER!!! you pissed me OFF!
