Like Jesus I'm prophetic,

I've come to set you free

by loving the way 

ignorant men cling

to their prejudices

Love you indiscriminate

of right and wrong,

sin and not guilty

Blow your mind utterly

and completely

Bend the human condition

towards reunification

Leave ninety-nine well fed

and go after the one instead. 

Through peril and

brim fire, I'll prove 

without being preachy,

loving me is all you need

For the freest form of free. 

Follow me, and I'll follow you,

we'll turn circles around

revolutionary ideas

sell communists

on capitalistic ideas

Won't stop until

Shangri-la sits smack-dab

in our living room

our front door the pearly gates.

Tempt fate. Let me love you,

instead of requistioning

you to a place you were

already created from and

no matter what decision

 you choose

You shall not be banished

in a godless place 

Love you in a way that

surpasses understanding.

Place an exit sign in hell, 

pull the fire alarm and

send 911 to the rescue. 

Tempt fate, let's love religiously,

Connect spiritually

and change the conception

of love's connection.

True love has a spiritual basis.We call it "prema" i.e love and not "kama" i.e. lust or passion. The passion( in this context) is like a beast which cannot be turned off or deflected. But prema soothes our soul.We must perceive the difference.
