Go Easy Poppa



Go easy Poppa.
When killing the weeds.
Go easy Poppa.
Some weeds don't believe,
They've been weeds.
But fruit to eat.
Among...
Flowers to bloom.
In Your Garden of Eve.

Go easy Poppa.
Aren't we all Your seeds.
Planted in both,
Adam and Eve.
How weeds got there,
In Your garden to leave...
Weeds to grow and destroy,
With poison to feed.
Should be easy,
For You now to know.
Who did this.
As revenge!
They're not hiding to deceive You anymore.
Or,
Again to be ignored.
They're all around bragging to culprits.
Disbelievers as to who You are, my Lord.

Go easy Poppa weeding out,
Your garden.
Go easy Poppa with those who still believe,
Themselves to be,
Your flowers.
More beautiful at night and daylight,
To be seen.
Heaven sent.
And this meant to be.

Go easy Poppa,
They too were deceived to believe,
Themselves to be picked as deities.
And Your favorite,
Choice to choose to end...human beings.
Oh no!

Go easy Poppa.
You're The Creator.
Go easy Poppa.
We believe we're all neighbors.
With troubles.
And conflicts to fix alone by ourselves.
But this has sick.
Mentally unfit.
Oh no!

Go easy Poppa.
Be more patient with us.
Many of us pray.
And in You we trust.
To help us!
Do that weeding with You, my Lord.
Help us!
Do that weeding with You, my Lord.
My Lord.
My Lord.
Just help us!
To do that weeding with You, my Lord!

Go easy Poppa.
Help us help You stop the madness.
Go easy Poppa.
Help us help You end the craze.
These days.
Leaving many moaning groaning in a daze.
Unfazed.

Go easy Poppa.
Help us help You stop the madness.
Go easy poppa.
Help us help You end the craze.
These days.
Leaving many moaning groaning in a daze.
Unfazed.
Mentally too weak and left numbed.
To overcome what's been done.

Help us!
To overcome what's been done.
You are our Creator to help us!
No one else but YOU LORD,
Can we trust.
To help us!
No one else but You Lord can we trust.
No!
No one else but You Lord can we trust!
