God Loves All Good People

Walking to my town’s steeple

My nerves get the best of me

God loves all good people

 

Stomach pains sharp like a needle

Love is my holy felony

As I walk to my town’s steeple

 

Community shaming me as the root of all evil

But your morals are wrong, fundamentally

God loves all good people

 

Your words have proven lethal

My siblings kill themselves from your hegemony

I think of them

As I walk to my town’s steeple

 

I’m being stared at

I am what you see as evil

But my mantra I play like a melody

God loves all good people

 

My identity’s primeval

But it’s made me your enemy

Walking to my town’s steeple

God loves all good people
