Aren'T We All Sinners
Aren't we all sinners in the eyes of the world
And aren't we all lost in this very world
For we always seeking approval from each other
From people who most times don't understand at all
For we all have cups over flowing
Some cups pouring out pure pain
Cause their cups were chalices of poison
Hate is all they've known in this life
Some have cups over flowing like rain
That when it pours from their cups
It drops in ours watering our wells
With hope to always keep going
Aren't we all sinners in the eyes of the world
Then why the attitude & constant righteousness
The sheer pettiness and imminent divide
Between ourselves when we out there in the world
Aren't we all sinners in the eyes of the world
And haven't you all had enough of it
Enough of the constant comparison,
and unnecessary pressure to perform
For we were all made different
Drinking from different cups of life
While some got empty cups that they sort to beg
Others got cups that fill whole grain sacks
