Saintly

I admit I'm disrespectful
I confess I have ridiculed
The others and the remedy
Is to pray to let go of this
And live in balance of harmony
And disdain for the mediocre
And the sick old oak tree
What I need to do is pray
The maliciousness away

I admit I'm disrespectful
And my bad deeds are getting heavy

I admit it's consequential
I confess I have used
Many lonely other people
To cure my boredom and my blues
Yes, the monautony gets the best of me
No, this is not the best side of my psyche
Or my inner child playing with fire 
Or my destiny
Maybe I'm searching for what I will find
Perhaps inspiration or something 
To kill the the time
I admit I'm disrespectful
I never claimed to be saint
I guess I've been a theif and 
I must pray this maliciousness away

I must pray my bitterness away
This is life
We are a product of our environment
Of our surroundings and experience
We must pray this maliciousness away
This is life
I can be so rude
This is life
We can be so cruel
This is life

I must pray this bitterness away
And so must you
I never claimed to be saint
Neither are you

When someone opens their mouth
To tell a story and spread their bile
They forget they have plenty in their home
They wouldn't want shared that are far
From glorious- We are not holy!
We are far from saintly and that's the real 
Story of a man or boy or girl or whatever
We are far from holy- I must let go of bitterness and ill-contempt for the world I want to change- I must change myself-
And pray my maliciousness away!

If you can't be holy- you should atleast be kind. We are not saints. It's worth the time.
