Is this where I'm supposed to tell you about religion (or lack thereof) in my life?
Those who do believe don't understand why I do not. Then I ask them if "God" created everyone equally, why can't gays marry? Why did women and Native Indians have to earn the right to vote years after men and whites? Why did black people have to sit at the back of the bus? Why would such a great creator make war, poverty, aids, and natural disaster? Why do people like Russel Williams get to see the light of day while my friends died before they reached 15?
I don't know what I believe. I leave you with Lonestar's "I Pray."
I can't quote the Bible
I skipped Sunday school
And I can't count the times I fell and broken the golden rule
So I don't know if He listens
Sometimes I wonder if He cares
Maybe I'm just wishin'
'Cause I can't even prove He's there
But I pray
He'll watch over my childern
I pray
Just to be a better man
To find the strength to rise above
To be there for the ones I love
To forgive and be forgiven some sweet day
I pray
Now I confess I don't bow my head as often as I should
Mostly just when times are bad, rarely when they're good
And I don't hold with too much preachin'
But I was raised up to believe
That a man can't ever stand as tall
As when he gets down on his knees
So I pray
He'll watch over my childern
I pray
Just to be a better man
To find the strength to rise above
To be there for the ones I love
To forgive and be forgiven some sweet day
I pray
So I pray
For a world that's gone half crazy
I pray
For every woman child and man
To find the strength to rise above
To teach each other how to love
To forgive and be forgiven some sweet day
I pray
I pray
