Can You Hear Me Now?

In the Bible the book of James reads like a Shakesperian play With words that are archaic and not used as much these days James writes of his concerns about how to lead an ethical life How one should communicate in order to follow the ways of Jesus Christ But in society today proper language seems to have gotten lost somehow Can you understand what people are saying, can you hear me now? For It's not so much as what you say, but It's how you say it. Ebonics, street lingo and generation X slang words It's not so much about can you hear me, but do you understand what you have heard "Put some frosting on your bling-bling" Now what in the heck does that mean? Some rap music isn't so bad, If you can comprehend the main point But most of those songs seem to address violence and the gangster life in the joint We need to set an example with the proper Christian tone Re-teach the youth of today to communicate in a language that's not all their own May God make them the instruments to carry forth His story Pray that they come to understand the with Him, there Is glory Can you hear me now? a slogan that Verizon does use Can you understand me now with the words that I choose? The diversity in the university Is just a sign of the individuality There's nothing wrong with being unique and marching to the beat of a different drum BUt can you hear me now and do you understand where I'm coming from?
