Roaches on a Filthy Countertop
They're everywhere now...
when lights dim in the corners of society
swarming like cock roaches to a filthy countertop...
strutting around on stage in crystal, ego bubbles.
Telling us what to eat- what to wear- how to think
when they're sloppy, unhappy and quite obese.
They tell us how to pursue peace
(when peace is already here) ...
They even tell us how to walk and breathe.
Guaranteeing great wealth and healthy mind
if you follow their step by deceptive steps...
if you sip from their magic fountain of B.S.
The truth is that the only way they've "made it"
was from the blood of our lack of confidence
from the flesh of our insecurities.
Truth of the matter is most of them think
they've sprouted wings and can hover above the sea.
they think they can upstage and outshine Jesus...
I could care less if I ever hear from them again.
