Balance Your Field

America used to be great, then we stopped reaching for the stars.
We let our petty differences dictate just where we are.
We separated church and state, we took God right out of our schools.
We point our fingers and judge and keep changing all of the rules.

Everyone was created equal, that’s a statement we seem to forget.
God loves all of his children and he doesn’t play favorites.
Whether you are gay, straight or transgender, black, white or red.
Jesus loves us all equally, don’t judge, just make your own bed.

None of us have the right, to pass judgement and force our beliefs.
We all will answer to God on the day he comes to debrief.
The next time you’re on your soapbox and look down your nose at me.
Remember you’re not alone, he’s watching and he can see.
