Age Is Just a Number

Age is just a number
Math just made me dumber
I felt my head getting heavier
Every time they put K and G together, the weight

After all there is a difference between growing up and growing old
That's why love is just another house on the street sold
When the buyer, is a woman at a party feeling cold
And the seller happens to have a jacket, he holds

Age is just a number, talk about love, talk about
Math all over, oh, he says let's do romantic algebra
Replace my eX girlfriend without asking Y
And to balance off the uknowns of our relationship 
I'll surely try

Age is just a number
A lonely prime number, that seeks closure
In its logically impossible factors its just one
And himself

Age is is just a number 
Just as cousin is just a word
And surely no wonder
We find thousands of people getting mad
In love, sometimes its sad 
Thats you don't see this challenge
Is over, 
And i took over

If I Was God

If I was God,
I would have put the forbidden fruit a bit higher
So Eve wouldn't reach it
I wouldn't just make it forbidden, i would hire Joe Biden
With his whole army to guard it
I would have given Trevor Noah to Adam the moment he told me that he was bored. 
I would have made Facebook
So Eve would deny the serpent's friend request earlier 
And they would have never gone out on a date
If i was God
I don't think i would have made Instagram
Eve would just use it to market her righteously naked body
 To Lucifer like her daughters today
Men preying on the little girls they supposed to be praying for 


If i was God, street kids would ride on horses like Kings 
Testifying they have a better father in heaven who cares
If i was God
Nike and Gucci would be churches
So many followers, my son had twelve only 
If i was God, sex would be
Something promised on the last pages of the Bible
Money wouldn't be the root of all evil
Money would be gospel verses
You trade on the street, you give your kids
And you keep in your wallet, safe and secure
If i was God, 
Prayer would be something done with eyes opened
So that you see that what you're praying for has already been given
If i was God, mosquitos would be messengers of good
Helping man sing praises to me every night 

If i was God, i would grant scholarships to get to heave

If i was God, i wouldn't make me a God 
Because selfishness runs in my DNA
How they took my father out on custody
If i was God, i would turn the judge's daughter into a serial killer
The teacher's son into an academic failure 
The pastor's son into an atheist
Because the children of a loving God 
Turned out to be Savage, hating monsters
Wipe out every prophet who chases after profits
Every doctor who serves his bank account before saving lives
Every man who thinks women are trees where you can just bite fruit from and leave them

If i was God, orphans would get scholarships to go to heaven
Who knows what hell those poor creatures have been put through here on earth 
They don't deserve anymore suffering 
If i was God the barren woman with no child
Would walk around wearing a crown that says
"My God is still faithful" no make believe 
The Bible would be a man with a voice, or a woman too
We need something more than a book to make us believe
If i was God, people would fall in love in churches, not clubs

Just if i was God...
