Empty Words-

In my defense, in other silent words In my actions they are deemed in perils Harness, perish the thoughts, bring it out bring it about It’s hard, so very, very, hard to hear Those empty words Those words that are always, always heard And I won’t play favorites or try to flatter anyone And I won’t as the grumblers malcontents following their own sinful desires And I won’t be loud mothed boaster Showing favoritism to gain advantage tryin to git over While using, empty words Empty words Have you ever heard all of those empty, empty words? They mean nothing if they’re not heard Empty words Them there those Empty words 5/7/22 Written words by James Edward Lee © 2022 Job 32:21 St. Jude16
