Superimposer
such an imposter
heart posture
sinless composer
keeps cutting a deal
missing his field
Prospect is killed
blazing sacrifice
trying to be nice
humble and spiced
yet he's OK why cuz the Father got him
leaving appalled
being withdrawed
suspected of twice
trying to be a witness
covered in nice
falsely accused of being duped
silently bruised
yet in truth
he's a bright moth attracted to the flame
cursed fumbles the ball relinquishes his name
yet he's OK why cuz Our Father got him
caught up in the game
Withered and torn
complacent rebirth reborn
and in saying all this
yet instilled bless
blessed is his type
crucified for being nice
following the dream
being
what it is and not What It Seems?
Praise God hallelujah he's okay because our Daddy's got it
What it is Is Not What It Seems
