We All Need An Relationship With God- -

People, open ended, bargain BASEMENT Everything’s on the fence, quickly done; Fifty-nine cent penny candy, and plastic bubble gum; Quick decision, triple vision Saints on the run; We all need an relationship, a relationship with God Pray for healing, no more drug dealings, spit out that aspirin… Pulpit screaming Of neighborhood robbing, drive by shootings, murders and guns Every LIFE MATTERS NRA and the Political systems a joke… Anyway though…. Don’t need no religion, don’t need no religion With any of my decisions; All I need, all we need is a We need an relationship with God We all need a one on one relationship with God, with God All I know it that; You and I aren’t right; And that when you’re up, you’re UP but after this, (after that comes) comes the fall; That just beats all Pulpit screaming Of neighborhood robbing, drive by shootings, murders and guns Every LIFE MATTERS NRA and the Political systems a joke… Anyway though…. Don’t need no religion, don’t need no religion With any of my decisions; All I need, all we need is a We need an relationship with God We all need a one on one relationship with God, with God We all need an relationship, a relationship with God Blue horizons, grown men crying; Bout’ what not they haven’t accomplished Grown men yes they to do need love and hugs Help them Lord, Oh God, help them Lord; In life you see only in God is there victory I want to be free in the spirit of Christ Slow ambitions day old hamburger buns In the winter time placing my tongue on the frozen fence post Children though that this was just fun Prayer of deliverance Man’s wheeling’s and dealings, will we ever past the tests; Don’t need mercy we’re had are duties Warring on now we protest My best is not second best, I insist; Wonder faces, beautiful places; Quick decision, triple vision Saints on the run pray for healing No more drug dealings, pulpit screaming Of neighborhood robbing all the drive by shootings murders and guns Don’t need no religion, don’t need no religion All I need ever need is… All we need is a relationship with God Let us pray on We need an relationship with God
