Preachers and Politics (Two)

by Catherinebutterfly


Preaching, preachers,pastors and politics
my folks believes it does not mix.
but I know that by the devil they've tricked.
Yep God’s Kingdom come would have been spread
And millions would have known the truth had it been said.
Might even have killed the devil with truth
But that old devil locked the mouth when he locked the brain of 
My folk by telling them it’s ashamed to kill their enemy
And preachers don’t touch politics.
What a trick. Give the glory to the devil, cause God
Wasn’t in it. God don’t play trick. 
When God folks, 
Righteous folks stepped in the game.
Taking God’s word in vain. 
I can hear that old devil laughing some furiously
Real tears, streaming from his eyes after 
Convincing my folks of all those lies.

Power in the tongue screamed slavery
These are the words Shot out of old Lynches mouth 
Spread the word throughout the Master’s house 
While my folks sit humbly and ignorantly by 
Crying and weeping real tears, of pain and hurt 
God Sent some body here, sent somebody by here 
Lard please don’t pass me by.
Freedom, flew into the wind 
Poverty stayed in 
Wealth slipped by 
Families parted left the hearts unguarded 
As my folks preached and taught 
Love them they’re your brothers, 
Your mother and your sisters 
And definitely your fathers, 
While they slaughter us, raped us, impregnated us, 
Abused us, used us, and misused us. 
We was taught to love them
Not killed them
Be grateful to them.
