I Sent You a Poet

They, them, those people 
Are lying, not relying 
On God. Lying...
Every time they do 
Their wicked deeds,
They blame it on God. 
They don't believe in God,
So, the dirty deeds they do,
They pretend it is in 
God’s plan.
Once again then you 
We’re not listening,
Poets told you to 
Protect the children
Those mad scientists 
Interfering with nature -
Using their knowledge,
To test God’s virtues.
They use H.A.A.R.P to 
Manipulate and 
Control the weather,
Now they want to 
Hold their breath 
And say God did it;
Because you were sinning.
Well nobody believes
In your King James tales.
Who more than black folk 
Love Jesus so well.
No one is more true- 
Than people of hue.
So why do you 
Add insult to injury,
As you oft times do.? 
just like "Katrina
You blamed that on God too.
Man, is so smart he can go 
To the moon (really)?
Drastically changing weather...
Manipulation with harpoons.
But you can't build a reliable 
Dyke in the 21st century.
So, all that was God’s fault? 
Why didn't you rescue the people?
Oh, I know, God told you not to. 
Lying on God again
Be careful America...
When the food is scarce,
And our seeds are altered,
None to spare.
But we still need clean air and
Clean water: Don't forget, medical 
Attention can be withheld.
Why are you still buying; 
Fake Gucci, fur coats,
And Korean hair?
Why are you not planting? 
And storing or
Preparing for another 
Blackout or worse?
Even though you pray and go to church. 
Then again you didn't take heed
Ignored the warnings.
So now, blame God and ask God why ...
God why- why you didn't save me?
He’ll then will tell you ...I tried!
I sent a poet to tell you,
But you listened to those
who blamed me, and lied. 
You should know that you are 
the last people I would hurt.
The wicked ones know 
That poets are
The new prophets.
These liars are propelled by 
Tricks and greed.
Then a voice said to them...
“If from the poets
you had only taken heed”.
I am God and they lied on me.
If they’ll lie on me, “God said
“What makes you 
think they won't lie on you? “
“You had better recognize”
“You had better know it “
God said- 
“I sent you a poet"
“I sent you a poet”.
