Have I Been Faithful

Have I been faithful?

Yes Lord!

Have I been sober?

Yes Lord!

Have I shunned evil?

Yes Lord!

Then hog-tied the Devil?

Yes Lord!

Then why do I suffer,

and why do I stumble?

Why are their demons

around every corner,

and why don't I have

a home or a mother?

Why must I wander and steal to live?

You trample the poor and you reward the rich,

I don't know what I can do or say next

I want redemption like all of the rest

I'm tired of bathing in Heaven's cold piss

But have I been faithful?

Yes Lord!
