Being Pineapple

You chose me off the the thorny pine lake And gently place me on a rocking rack, I could breathe the cleanest air above the pile of pineapples You took me off the rack showed me an easy way to go Made me like the water made me flow, And i was the sweetest fruit for the thirsty and of bitter taste You made my life a happy song And took the spikes off my chest You made me fly and diffuse my wisdom and then every one followed They took me by their mouth and made for themselves freedom Freed themselves from stunting, Muscled up and helped others cross the street They grew up to raise kids by pineapple juice and moral feet Then i knew i was nutritious I had made the society conscious Because you made me first into that pineapple, And my juice i serve to Gods people. (in many ways those moral teachings of the bible makes us as human as we should be, they are all a different fruit to us)- Lucas-
