Well I Can'T

God why do You think I can do the impossible?
Why do You have so much faith in me
When I don’t even have it myself?
I can’t do the impossible God
I cannot do what You can do
You can move mountains
You can call and it comes
You can change the world in one second flat
What do You want in me?
I don’t have what you want of me
I don’t have the capability
Capacity
Anything that you want
I can’t give you what You want
I don’t want to do it 
Or even participate in it
God your plan is so vast
So grand
That I don’t even see myself in it
I will surely fail
You think everything is so easy
And that I can do it just like that
Well I got news for You
I can’t and I don’t
So there
You can take everything you want
And do it
Because I am not going to do it
‘cause I don’t want to waste my time
Why do you keep wasting my time?

Great write... AHHHH, but anybody can... Faith moves mountains and gives a drink for the only forever fountain.
