For I Have Sinned
Forgive me
For I have sinned in my tenacity
to challenge you on the battlefield of morality.
Forgive me
For offending your duplicity
with my transparency.
Forgive me
While you carouse with your unquenchable lies

I Have Sinned
I have sinned, friend.
But my sin is not a God
To smother my Divinity.
Innate, alive
God writhes within me,
A burning fire
A tripartite light.
How low I sank
I may not tell
But in the muddy
Fires of Hell
Is not my destination.
I drank from an evil cup
And yet
God took me to his bosom
And I Am transfigured.
Me, a Sinner.
A broken piece of pottery
That

For I Have Sinned
Forgive me father. For I know not of what I’ve done. The chalice from a goat’s horn forged in fire, does not adhere to the things of clay. To oversee and administer all the tests you task, done so without as much as a blink is easy.
To bow down to these abominations that I helped

World look at me not I feel bad and God has not washed me
And world don't look at me now

World close your eyes shine free to speak the truth
World close your mouth speaking not hurting me
This I know you for my God made

O' Bird How Can I Touch You
O' Bird how can I touch you, with hands that sinned so much
You are the Garden’s most Sacred Rose, only from afar I can watch
Unfortunate I, this world only kept me unworthy of you
Left me lonely in pain like the blue sea, and Saki unhappy as such.

Father You Have Sinned
You wear your collar back to front.
You say you're a man of God.
Then you mess with little children,
And ignore them when they sob.
The destruction of their minds never enters yours.
You hide behind your collar destroying lives
behind closed doors.
Suffer the little children Jesus told us all,
You don't have to be a Christian to

Louisiana I Have Sinned
Louisiana Rev had a session,
with a girl in the oldest profession.
Was found with his pants down,
on the wrong side of town.
His next sermon became his confession.

I Have Sinned, Mother
I'm a dirty woman
I've never killed a man, but it felt like it
The moment I have that knife in my hand
It felt like I'm invisible
Forgive me, mother
I am not being a good girl, am I?
I was innocent enough until I learned the truth
The ugly truth of how addicting it is
It was not even a difficult

Dear Mama I Have Sinned
hidding I tried
at night I cried
to you I just lied
he tempted my lips
he then touched my hips
I just forgot your tips
he promised me something
he made me forget everything
right now I feel like I am nothing
dear Mama I am now pregnant
I thought I was so intelligent
I now turned so disobedient
I did not want to listen to

Forgive Me Lord - For I Have Sinned
O' Forgive me Lord; for I have so sinned
I put my rubbish; in my neighbours' bin
It wasn’t like there wasn’t, enough room
But did she have to hit me with a broom
With the neighbours gathered for a laugh
In fact; in the end there was quite a cast
After that whack I was amazed I survived
It

I Sinned Father
I SINNED FATHER
I coveted that that is not mine
I longed for that that I can’t get
I craved for one out of my reach
I sought to take that was never meant for me
I sought to win a queen’s heart
Yet am lowly...
I longed to touch nobility
Yet she is out of my league
I sinned father
But hold it not

I Have Sinned Lord
So diseased and in need of surgery
my anointing facing stench forgery
poisons and impurities I chew
clean corners of the heart, becoming few
deadly concoctions and spice in a brew
I bow and plead to make the air new
begging for your touch and the morning dew.

With his Christopher Walken pose, he also had that celebrity vibe going on
Retired doc, I swear he said he was like 84
Years

I stood there, drooling over his accent
