You Moved

Dear lord I’m trying, please help me understand
What makes a man with lots of money thinks he has the upper hand?
Doesn’t he know it’s because of you he’s able to stand so tall?
Or maybe he’s forgotten it’s you that can also make him fall
It really make no sense to me when you’ve given them all they want & need
Yet still they are over come by selfishness, carelessness and greed.
You give them the money; you give them the cars, the house and food on their table.
But when it comes to saying no to the other woman, for some reason he’s not able.

I’m tired of the over-paid sports figures and movie stars getting caught up and buying their way out.
But that’s ok they’ll one day face you, no room for cuts or time outs.
That says a lot about the law down here, if you have the money, you’re justified.
But when the book of life is opened the money, fame and fortune runs and hide.
This is reality poetry, the things you see swept under the rug
Buy those proving things they don’t have to prove.
If you’re guilty, then you’re guilty, if you’re not, then you’re not
But if you find one day that you can’t reach Jesus, guess who moved!!!
