You looked me in the eyes and said no
I didn't know what to do
All lost there are things we don't understand
And things that are full of holes
People get stuck and people fall through
It's like a great spiderweb
They do what they please and they kill who they will
There is really nothing anyone can do
People die because of this spiderweb
They die because it's poorly constructed
America is tied up in laws that break hearts
The laws are doing so much harm to so many
In a time when no one can step out of line
And the able cannot work and the weak have to
And the poor are beaten down and the rich are so unhappy
Poor people find heaven in meals and warm beds
But the rich and powerful find only nettles under their beds
They are unhappy with what they have
While Chris and I are so happy
To live a simple life is a really great truth
Just to be what you are without any shame
I'd rather be poor than rich
And I always will
In Jesus' Name,
Amen
