If I Was God
If I was God
I'd be angry with the world
I'd be angry with Christians
Why haven't you created a better world
I told how to overcome the world's problems
first go out into the world
and become fishers of men
then they were to teach them
That I your God created the world
I created the world
and expect ten percent
of the worlds profit
to be paid to me
you owe me a tithe not the Church
on land I created
ten percent of your wage
belonged to me
yet the church
spends it on themselves
that was my money
I told you what
to do with my money
The parable of the talents
told you to invest my money
Invest to make
five times more
that was my money.
In the fifteenth century
Catholic Priests became corrupt
not all of them don't
blame all of the people
for the acts of some people
Granted I am still proud
of a lot of my people
it doesn't matter what
you call yourself
Christian muslin Jewish
I created all of you
but killing each other
honestly
I came down and wrote
the ten commandments
Did you not think
it applied to you
If you had invested my money
for the last two thousand years
you would have created
companies through out the world
Fair enough other people
are also allowed to build companies
but creating employment overcomes poverty
When Jewish people collected the tithe
Their religion was their government
the money, people pay in tax
was the same, as them collecting a tithe
investing in jobs creates wealth
The profits from the industries
would have allowed you to accumulate wealth
It takes money to look after people
you were supposed to treat people
like the good Samaritan
if a man needed your help
you paid to help him heal
you supported him when he was down
but not forever
once he was well
you could give him a job
because if you invested my money
you would be wealthy
enough to look after people
Instead, you fought with each other
you killed each other
You took money
off people that couldn't afford it
and you spent it on yourself
That was my money Gods money
Then you expect me
to bow down
and provide for every dream
I'm not your puppet
If you won't fix your problem
Why should I
I warned you about Armageddon
you are at a crossroads
Keep destroying the planet
that I created and you destroy yourself
don't blame me for your mistakes
I told you how to overcome
your problems
Don't blame me for your behaviour
If I was God I would be angry but I'm not God
I'm just me
