Has God ever told You that your prayers are stupid?

Lately, I Care
Lately, I care
You only frequent a place
When only a certain
Someone is there
Lately, I care
That that blessed friend
Doesn’t make an appearance
Like he used to
Lately, I care
That your lingerie arouses you
As much as it does me
Lately, I care
That you can make your hands
And lips
Feel the way mine does to you
Lately, I care
That I cared to notice
That I have been living all along
Lately, I care
That I wasn’t the one
To teach you how to love me
Lately, I care
That it took an outlet
For me
Lately, I care
About our adventures
Lately, I care
About when it’ll all end
Always in the dark
Try to ask where you’re going
Sometimes
I guess it’s
not worth knowing
You play so coy
As if I’m your kept toy
Loving you isn’t always a walk in the park
That’s why I feel I’m always in the dark
Thought I caught
a fallen star
But reaching out for you
is stretching way too far
The wish I made
Really let you leave your mark
The way you keep throwing me shade
Ain’t no wonder I’m always in the dark
You’re still a pot of gold
It’s just that you’re too hot to hold
I think this is getting old
Somebody out there will break the mold
I’ll always feel the spark
When I can get you alone, one-on-one
Until then, I’ll always be in the dark
playing solitaire while you’re on the run
Where I Must Go
Wake up in the morning
I love to kiss your forehead
Today, tells a new story
It’s good you’re still in bed
Make the coffee
Before I butter some toast
Shouldn’t be so strange for me
When I know you do it most
I made a vow
Because I love you so
To keep you safe and happy somehow
So only you know where I must go
Working a simple nine to five
Is the least I can do
To keep this love alive
You loving me and me loving you
When the work is done
After the calls and deals are made
It’s back home to where I am someone
Making sure my debt is paid
You’ve been right by my side
Having my back in every way
You’ll never know the heavy ride
I must take every day
But that’s the least I can do
To show you I love you so
Someone’s blessed me with you
That’s why there’s somewhere I must go
The Night Before
I just had to pull your hair
While you were sitting there in that chair
Such a vision to me
You make my destiny
Even now, the way you smell
Knocks me down and rings my bell
Oh, you’re good enough to eat
Like an ice cream sandwich and cookie treat
I can still see the way you moved
You smiled that smile the way you grooved
I’ll never forget being on the dance floor
And the love we made the night before
As a matter of speaking
Lord knows if I’m not tweaking
You really had them going
Even made me worth knowing
It didn’t matter what you wore
You rocked that line and settled the score
But in case they want a little more
Let’s do it again like the night before
You made me snap my fingers
Loud enough to drown back-up singers
Believe I even touched the floor
I didn’t do that the night before
Felt I had to give a little something
Couldn’t just stare at you and do nothing
You took my hand and you gave a whole lot more
Can you do it again like the night before?
I even let off a hand clap
The crowd went wild when you fell on my lap
You took me all over the world
When you showed the crowd you were my girl
Take Me Back
When your world
Has since grown colder
As if you’d never know
And when your grip
Grows bolder
Won’t you try and let it show
Take Me Back
For all the times
We were together
I remember them very well
For all the times
Never said Never
We would live to tell the tale
And if you don’t like
Those late night phone calls
Take Me Back
Take Me Back
Do you still bat your eyes
Just to try to get attention
Are you sitting next to
Across from someone else
and sorting through their lies
Held hostage in detention
Take Me Back
Take Me Back
Before you begin to feel the breeze
From the leaves that fell from the trees
To the ground
Take Me Back
Take Me Back
Was it I who made the mistake
Of letting my heart break
Or was it you who got a clue
From the ones you said who loved you
Anyway,
Take Me Back
Take Me Back
Take Me Back
Even a man can get classified
Into someone he wished had died
But a woman can be scorned
Into back to being born and mourned
But I know you, so
Take Me Back
Take Me Back
Take Me Back
I was there before
And I can stay again
Not we’re settling a score
With a mean and jealous friend
Take Me Back
Syracuse Community Health Center, Inc. is a joke!
This Mother’s Child
Lord, this mother’s child has run wild
In and out of this job
Turning a different way that knob
Still, I am a mother’s child
I can go home, if I want to
In God’s time, I will
Just knowing she’s there and true
An aching heart she would always fill
Like a vagabond were my shoes
My back so bad, I couldn’t bend
Shuffling along, picking up more blues
Trying to get along so I don’t offend
Days like this
What mother could have a child
Who misses her sweet kiss
However so gently and or mild
Maybe I missed her birthday
Always saying I’m on my way
Maybe showing up three days late
Always a place to sit and a really big plate
She would keep a place for me
Even to just to lay my head
So tired near blind I could barely see
In her eyes I never saw red
Yes, I’ve said it time and time before
Lord, I know I’m my mother’s child
The seed am I she bore
The wild child who wants to be mild
Days like this
What mother could have a child
Who misses her sweet kiss
However so gently and or mild
Maybe I’ll Be Fine
All communication lost
You took away from me
What can I do
To make it stay
To make you play
To make you say
Hello, again?
No more clicking
Or ticking
Seems like someone’s picking
On me for no reason
In this season
Of heartache
And heartbreak
Can you take a little time
To tell me of my crime
I’m sorry, if I got out of line
Maybe I’ll be fine
If I show you your shrine
Maybe I’ll be fine
If I drink some wine
I won’t point out any flaws
Just because
You made so many laws
With all those hidden clauses
And dotted pauses
Where I did sign
Maybe I’ll be fine
Maybe I’ll be fine
If you sign
Mine
If you sign mine
If you have the time
Can you sign?
I’m running out of time
