John
church poem
 
I’m a gospel arsonist, 
My holy flame burns so bright it shakes the pillars of the unworthy, 
Forgotten 
For they know that the demon inside of me has been slain 
And now God’s lethal weapon is here to change the game, 
They thought hip hop rap artists 
Can only spit a flow so sick to make them filthy rich, 
Well I’m hip hop’s nemesis flow so delicious it’s like skittles 
You just got to get a taste of it, 
For God is my addiction, 
I drunk from the venomous pits but now i ask for re-newness, 
See I rhymed with repentance, 
But now I’m saved 
Now my evil thought are relinquished, 
My body is slowly but surely replenishing my good intentions, 
 For poetry is my obsession 
And the gifts it brings has doubled my blessings, 
For Mr. Fantastic’s kind hearted soul has been resurrected, 
I’ll be proud to give the devil a verbal thrashing 
Give him a coma like concussion, 
I was raised by the devil but now I’m Gods lethal weapon, 
The devil gave me grief but God swashed that beef 
Gave me a taste of victory for you see, 
I was once a CSI cold case 
My identity was almost erased until 
God reopened my case 
Gave me a new kind of faith that no one can take away 
Plus gave me a new face helped me fight my case, 
 I’m a free man again 
The load I was carrying has been lifted 
The pain I held was also lifted 
And if more comes 
I will continue demolishing its existence 
The skills I lost God has resurrected its presence 
I have regained my freedom of speech, spirit if Langston Hughes 
The power of understanding my surrounding like the great Maya Angelou 
“And Still I Rise”, 
 I have the voice of a great leader commanding its troops 
I also carry the name of one of the greatest men that ever lived 
He paved the way for the one we call Jesus today, 
His name was John the Baptist, 
And with all that said I stand here now I give you my testament, 
 I will stand and fight back the demons of hell 
Until God calls my name in the book of life 
And tells me 
My good and faithful servant you are welcome in my house 
Peace is still.
