hmmm




it is really easy to pretend that you are holy
just do not display your sins in public
do your sinful act in the closet of your bedroom
do not display it on your sleeve for the world to see
let people know you follow the bible
Let people know you follow the Quran
just keep speaking of a good  god
let your heart believe in an evil god
keep on displaying good  behavior
tell me thank you
When you really want to stab me
Call me your sister when you really want to get rid of me
Display good behavior among your friends
I know your kind
Just know god is watching
Just know god does not like pretenders.
