Profanity

Explain to me the need for profanity Words we so generously speak When our mouths have the urge to just leak We defile and condemn Again and again As if we are uneducated fools That lack proper communication tools We are overly equipped with words to express our state of mind Yet,I am baffled by what my ears seem to so often find People never seem to damn themselves but don’t mind damning God And sometimes I think I hear a prayer but it’s a mindless facade For Jesus Christ made away for all mankind to repent Yet every day I hear some man scream his name into cement The day will come when we will be Accountable for what we so freely decree And I pled to all to manage their tongues Especially around our younger ones For they do what they watch And they say what they listen too Our mouths are swords that can cut and cause ridicule Self-control is what is in a recession And idolatry has become a common obsession Let’s pause before we utter Words that hurt God and our fellow brothers Lets take a stand against cursing the divine For when we are in trouble we use that same mouth to ask him for a sign.
