Yes I Live In the Past

Yes I live in the past 15 June 2019 9:54 AM I do not like the present so I live in the past A culture that had its troubles but did its best to over come until the last A time when people knew a child from an adult and a man from a woman And when animals were not worth more than humans When right was right and wrong was wrong When real truth and feelings could be felt in songs When people went to visit in person and not on the phone When mom and dad were taken in and not rejected for monies throne When God was known and sought after And folks would empty of tears and then be filled with laughter You can keep your modern fake news And stuff your leftist politics into the bottom of your shoes Then pretend that you are tall and that you know it all But you will really know the truth when the whole world hears Christ's call So fault me if you want to for living in the past But modern times for me smell worse than sewer gass.
