I'm tired of playing
tired of playing the same games
tired of having fun with the same toys
I'm thirty years old
but fun is all I want
But frankly, ladies and gentleman
It's all I've been used to
in the amusement park I wrongly called church

Fashion and fame rules
at the amusement park
It has a cross as a slogan to everyone
and a Bible as a cool billboard

I called it church for almost twenty years
and tagged myself as a Christian for a long time
while the Devil was actually proud of me
I became obsessed in becoming an alpha
and terrified with the idea of becoming a beta male
thanks to the teachings of my amusement mentor hosts
But frankly, ladies and gentleman
It's all I've been used to
in the amusement park I wrongly called church

While thousands of children starve
and many more die in hospitals
I focused in MGTOW and AWALT discussions
I focused in being a Hollywood man
while my entertainment pastors
advised me to hit the instagram button
and get ourselves noticed in Tinder

I'm tired of playing
tired of playing the same games
tired of having fun with the same toys
I'm thirty years old
and anger rises from within me
that place destroyed my youth
those pastors enchanted me
by sowing lies to my heart unmercilessly
But frankly, ladies and gentleman
It's all I've been used to
in the amusement park I wrongly called church

I'm thirty years old
and I feel ashamed of myself
I had to leave the amusement park forever.

Now my congregation is a room,
my pulpit the bed
with a bible and some bitter tears.
God, I have put your name in vain
and played with your glory like a toy.
But your mercy runs like water,
and your forgiveness gives me shelter.

What's an AWALT ?
It means All Women Are Like That (It is a new vocabulary that men are using to trash women. YouTube has many videos about it)

God, in his infinite mercy granted you vision at thirty. What a great opportunity. Many of us were blind into our later years and but wish we could have seen sooner. Speak the truth to all that have ears.

MGTOW means Men Go Their Own Way...it is an acronym nowadays men use to trash women. There are many videos in YouTube about that. Try to watch one of these videos and you will realize of what I am saying. Honestly, it is pretty pathetic and sad.

PS. 17:15.
As for me, I will behold Thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with Thy likeness.

an awesome, honest, share/witness - very admirable/brave, to say the least...
