When I say I'm christian, or you get the vibe that I am.
Don't write me off as "holier than thou", a goody two shoes or innocent please
Don't look at me as a religious, conceited, stuck up hypocrite
I'm still that same ol' D, just improvin from the wretch I used to be see?
When I say I'm christian I'm not shoutin that I'm clean livin
I'm still a simple sinner with a past now fogiven.
And since I've been born again, with a new life worth livin
I've been driven by my ultimate goal to make it into heaven.
I'm not a hypocrite but yeah I do some hypocritical things
just like a woman who's not of royalty is still considered a queen
what I mean is that, like David I lust, like Samson I fornicate
like a thief sometimes I steal, and sometimes I lie
I'm just keepin it real yo', and sometimes I cuss both verbally and in my mind so...
It ain't like I don't pray, repent and ask for forgiveness
and not a day goes by, most of the time, that I don't speak to God.
I talk the talk, and try my best to keep walkin the walk
but sometimes I stagger and fall cause the flesh gets the best of me
especially during the weak points of my celibacy
so I find myself writing intimate poetry
to relieve myself of sexual heat but aye, that's just me
that's my release therapy... and let me clear up one last thing
When I say I'm christian, I'm not sayin I speak in tongue
and that I shout and go crazy wit the holyghost
I don't randomly take out a bible and start ackin like an exorcist
whenever I'm in the midst of a bunch of unholy folks
I mean if you drink you drink, if you smoke you smoke, if you cuss you cuss, if you use it or sell it, hey do what you do
I'ma keep doin me, I just hope you're straight when Jesus comes back for his people
and LAST but not LEAST, when I say I'm christian
Rest assured I'm still human, cause the only thing that makes me different
is the light that I have that always seems to shine.
I'm just a regular guy tryna find
what it is that God made me to do in life,
I'm just a simple sinner... if I was perfect... why would I BE a christian, why would I need God?
I'd be too good for it and since I'm NOT, THAT my friend is WHY... I'm a christian
Tell me what you think

Ok...This is cool. It sounds like a rap/poem to me, but I like it. I could feel where ur coming from cause this poem has a powerful vibe.

This is a powerful write. Some I agree with you on, and some I don't, that's what makes "me" a Christian. I don't steal, I don't cuss, I don't smoke I don't do any of the things I used to do before I accepted Christ in my heart. Yet, I am still a sinner. I try everyday to be a better person, and every night I repent of my sins, be cause "I" am human and a Christian too.
I enjoyed reading this.
