Crackhead



Isaiah prophesied about a queen becoming a dope fean, that was a prophesy a long time ago,
Back when I was a little girl, woman just didn't sink themselves that low.
Our daughters are being lured away with dreams of being rich, dreams of success,
But in reality they end up on a stripper pole, exposing more than just breast.
They don't realize that they are not the world's merchandise,
What know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which you have of God and you are not your own? For ye are bought with a price.
The sins that happened to some of them when they were little girls had blinded them on what's good and what's bad,
They're still queens through God, just the way they've chosen to live, that's the part that's sad.
Where I'm from we say things like; man those shoes are bad than a motha, that car is bad, that's slang talk and it means the shoes and the car is good,
That's the trick of the devil and it's happening in all of our hoods.
Our children are sucking it all in when we say these things,
We telling them that bad is good, is this really what we mean?
So of course our daughters are excited about making money being a stripper and quick to do bad and majority of them end up on drugs,
Because she was looking for material things to make her also be good, instead of her realizing she's worthy to be loved.
Our children are not out of control, we as parents are not in control,
How do we expect to do wrong and think our children are not going to want to travel down that same road.
Now that Our Lord has given us his grace and we are becoming aware,
We have to lead by example, teach our children different now that'll be fair.
One day at a time let's show this new generation a new and better way,
Cause finally we've come to realize crime never pays.
God numbered us in tribes not gangs we're the children of God we have the power to change the world,
On this earth we should be a tribe in our fellowship a tribe bringing Our Lord's love and Our Lord's words to our lost boys and lost girls.
           Isaiah Chapter 3 Verses 16,17&24
      Moreover the Lord says:
      "Because the daughters of Zion are
          haughty,
         And walk with outstretched necks
         And wanton eyes,
         Walking and mincing as they go,
         Making a jingling with their feet,
         Therefore the Lord will strike with a
           scab
         The crown of the head of the
           daughters of Zion,
          And the Lord will uncover their
             secret parts."
          And so it shall be:
          Instead of a sweet smell there will be
              a stench;
          Instead of a sash, a rope:
          Instead of well-set hair, baldness;
          Instead of a rich robe, a girding of
              sackcloth;
          And branding instead of beauty.
            
           Isaiah Chapter 5 Verse 20
          Woe to those who call evil good, and
              good evil;
          Who put darkness for light, and light
              for darkness;
           Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet
               for bitter!
