Give Me Something Other Than What Is Preached

Give me liberty... Or something else I can value. The cost of maintaining my freedom... Has already achieved for me deepening debt! Give me a solution. Or something today that makes more sense... Than turning on my TV To watch the media salute crime. With repeated decadence. Give me less self righteousness... From those who profess, They harbor no racistness. And yet they do their best... To leave that smothered to go unaddressed. Give me honesty and truth. Even from a pulpit... These days that is rare! Give me something other than what is preached! Something other than what is exposed, Blatantly on the streets. Give me something other... Than lessons that teach evilness and sin! Give me something other... Than addicting temptations, Left at my doorstep to let in! Give me someone who does 'not' commit a crime... Does prison time. And then 'finds' God... To declare His word to me. Wanting to preach to me from scriptures... And that God has 'revealed' to him... A need I have, He now 'sees'. Please! ! Give me something other... Than a rehabilitation done, By those who have not sacrificed their lives... Trying to live a life from the beginning that is right! Then I will know there is some positivity... Trying to clean and clear this polluted air! Choking with a reekness. To leave masses insane to make claims, For material gains perceived with deceptions... That no one with 'insight' is aware of their aims. Since everything else... Experienced by those still left with good intentions, Seems to be a marketing of a recycled mess! By those on the 'right' denouncing those 'liberal' Standing on the left! Leaving no one to accept responsibility. And those who desire to... Are treated with much disrespect!
