I Want To Go To Church

I want to go to church to know
Why pastors doesn't preach repentence any more but
A sagging prosperity and miracle they preach .



I want to go to church to learn
How to prophecise so that I may earn a living 
From the extortion of people who I am better than.



I want to go into trace on the altar and see
God beckoning on me to come home to him.
I want to learn why Jesus forgives 



I want to go to church and learn what the tithes
Are being used for without the members consent.
I want to know why the poor are not taken care off.



I want to know why the Rich men are seen on the front rows of the auditorium why the poor are at back
I want to be more stupid and insane in the church.




Unbottle my madness before the congregation,
Let me laugh without teeth and mouth to show to them; madness in the church is better than outside.



Every teethless moron hope in miracle and miracle
But the eyes of our ageless minds are decieved because we seek that which is impossible to get.



I want to learn why many souls are murdered
And caged into the mirror of tomorrow in fear.
Breezing with their mountainous legs to insanity,
I want to know the end from my beginning and my
Beginning to my end, I want to know life mystery.
