God is a pill I can't swallow

You see God
He isnt a person. He is a being.
An idea that fills and consumes you
God is a pill that I cant swallow.
Because my sins are my gag reflect
And the devil is the indigestion
Deep within my abdomen
Causing my heart to start pit pattering
Sit back, again
God is a pill that I cant swallow.
God is the air we breath, the devil our exhales
It seems I suffocate myself
Afraid to come to terms with the cards im dealt
God is the light, and it seems i am a vampire
Scared of the brightness and truth
Scared to admit that ive become uncooth
To the obvious
That god is not my perrogative
Im to focused on the flesh
The desires that develop in my chest
And tremble down to the rock hard ego in my soul
Oh no.
God is a pill i cant swallow
I stray from drugs
But its seems i smoke weed to balance out
The good and bad that Ive come to crown
As the reasons behind my actions
When its really my lack of passion
For the word of the almighty
But sometimes it all seems slightly
Misguided, misread, and maybe thats why my mrs
The mrs i try to invent
Or formulate
Leave me dry and grey
With 50 shades of regret
God is a pill i cant swallow
He lives within me
Like a parasite that i cant flush out.
Yet when my mind becomes filled with clouds.
I cry out his name and ask for a way out
A way to get my weight relieved and my plate empty enough for seconds please
Because a double helping of blessings
Cant force me to swallow this pill im rejecting
My body is a temple
Yet he lives in the basement
Undeneath the parts of my complacent
Demeanor and furniture strayed about
Slain and grinded into powder in a time capsule
That relives every moment that I wasnt an asshole
Every moment I got caught in the lasso
Of Lucifer on his great stallion like a nefarious cowboy
Offering me devilish candies like altoids
Telling me i can freshen up my life
If i just hop on for a ride
God is a pill i cant swallow
So which will i choose.
Like morpheous said to neo
Will you pick the red or the blue?
Will you choose to burn bright with hatred
And sell your soul for instant gratification
Or will you choose the blue
And fill your heart with dreams of anew
A life that is filled with joy and miracles
A life where the only smoke that fills you is spiritual
Which will you choose
God is a pill i cant swallow
