Do Not Follow Me

DO NOT FOLLOW ME Me, myself and I Get the likes you try Addicted to self and my Inflate yourself a lie. Do not follow me I don’t pretend to be Nothing, a nobody Human not a diety. Social media making scars You are not who you say you are Trapped inside it, deep and far Its your prison without the bars. Connect with friends and family But you’re vending and selling me Posting obscenity Pedantic and worldly. I don’t use a special tool You’re feeding on pop cultures pull That school of thought is very cruel Drink from it and play the fool. Impurity, profanity, popularity, celebrity Narcissistic, pessimistic, materialistic, atrocity. Egotistic, antagonistic, unethical, skeptical Idolatrous, preposterous, scandalous, unbiblical. Do not follow me, you will see He must become greater, trust me I must become less, are the words the Baptist John said most fervently. Facebook and Instagram trying to reform Your way of thinking and to deform Your character and integrity as they inform You that sexual immorality is the norm, do not conform. It’s infecting your brain, strangles like a collar Research for yourself, use Google scholar Morally decaying, daily your mind Trying to fill the void in your soul online. Moral fabric slowly disappears Continued neglect of wisdom all the years It’s a fact, that is true, as I shout Rest assured your sin will find you out. I know what your say’n Brian? Who do you think you are? You’re some kind of bible banger now? No, just trying to heal my scars. I’m on the Internet and media as well Trying to use it for good as I tell And relate my life with its ups and downs To point others to fresh water and where its found. I’ve have always loved rap and poetry Using my rhymes to spread the Gospel openly Title of this poem is DO NOT FOLLOW ME Be a fisher of men, Jesus said, “Come and follow me.” You wont read this though You’ll need Godly sorrow Take it to heart, do not fight HIS burden is easy, HIS yoke is light. He said, “Take up your cross and follow me.” That’s the cost of discipleship. See? Deny yourself and removing the “me”. Leads to life and with HIM eternally. I am not perfect and I have sin The difference is I have been for-giv-en. Received the Spirit at my bap-t-is-m Forgiveness is the Good news, you list-en-‘n. Iron sharpens iron and “I know the plans I have for you.” These are some of the scriptures that help me I hope they also strengthen you by:beardedjarhead
