Buy me a blessing fill my vacant mind
Its been a decade on a job hunt-
But still, I have found none...
Its been a piece here and there, that's stunt.
Come get a blessing says the prophet, believe!
He profess I could receive absoluteness
With enough money to sow a seed and live!
He affirms cars, mansions and businesses.
Buy me a blessing I'm stuck in profanity
I've witness souls in and out, there in the oratory,
Tell me...I know, they're selling christianity
Tell me I'm wrong, I'm afraid of purgatory.
Buy me a remission, get me out of hell...
I've seen the artifacts, the relics in the shrine,
Buy me a blessing, I pray you can tell-
My hope is beat-up and my faith in-decline.
Buy me a blessing I'm dying in this penance,
I'm crying to be unleashed from this bondage
At this crossroads, only Christ is for my repentance,
Not these arrayed in colours, robes of old age.
'in the toilet' idiom: 'in the toilet In a miserable, pitiful, or very unfortunate condition.'
'With enough money to saw a seed and live! ' i say 'sow' not saw or sew OR so. 'My hope is beat-up and my faith in-decline. ' well, Kyvin, MY faith in a 'god' 'went in the toilet'/stopped 50 years ago. : )
I had to look up verb defintion of stunt. OK. The definition I'm used to is 'trick', as a noun. I guess you mean your job hunt success was delayed/'not very successful'. ; ( i better send this before i accidentally erase it.
'that's stunt'? i don't understand. Ok, i checked verb meaning (Googled) :
With 'stunt' meaning 'hinder' my english is not that good but I like to brake rules!
