“God, what should I do?
Which path is right?
Where should I go?
Please show me the light!”
“What should you do?
You want my advice?
I gave you a brain,
should that not suffice?
“Decide what you want,
then ask me about it.
You want my two cents?
First go on without it.
“I’m not here to convince
but instead to confirm,
not to instruct or to lead lead,
but to merely affirm.
“Thank you for asking,
but I’m not gonna lie,
while I love you and everything,
I’ve got bigger fish to fry.”

and does he really listen?

Even in the darkest shadows
Of fear and pain
He is there for the righteous
If they call on his name.

it’s alright
it’s OK
now you know why
my way’s the right way
