No God but God

Ho’s be with tricks

Tricks be with ho’s

There is No God but God

No one beats woman

What if there is No God but God

What if God is the fear

You won’t release

God is the pain you won’t release

God is the love you won’t release

God is the tears you won’t cry

God is the lies you tell

God is the mountain you won’t climb

God is the success you won’t try

God is the beauty you don’t see

God is time

Running out the hourglass

God is the body you refuse to heal

God is the mind you refuse to feed

What if what if what if

What if God is ready when you ain’t ready

What if God is ready when you get ready

What if what if what if

What if there is no God but God

What if God is the forgiveness you won’t give

What if God is the denial you drown in like a hog in slop

What if what if what if

What if God is the peace in your house

The love in your life

The joy on your face

The happiness in your heart

The thankfulness of your smile

What if there is NO God but God

What if my life and my death are all for God

Not for woman, not for man

Not over a woman, not over a man

Life and death are all for God

What if what if what if

What if I grieve for nothing

Because God is everything

Whatever God wants I want

Whatever God don’t want I don’t want

Whatever God has I have

Whatever God don’t have I don’t want

What if what if what if

There is No God but God.
