No Greater Sin
No Greater Sin

Black man
White man
This man
You man
He drinks
He smokes
He steals
And he provokes
He's polytheistic
And he works on Sunday
He makes child videos
And he loves the money
But I'm gay
So I'm automatically first in line for the fire pit right?
But if she throws that ass back for the one time before marriage
She still has an open seat at the end of that white light
This **** is crazy man
I thought no sin was greater than the other
So how come y'all disapprove of my decision
But y'all can bear my brothers
While we got children having children
Y'all turn a blind eye
But when y'all see me with a strap
I don't see any allies
Why dont we learn to keep an open mind
It doesn't matter where I go
If I go this way and you go that way
Then it was your opinion that I didn't really need to know
