Jesus Gulf Stream Jet

Jesus in a 5’5” suit

Spouts about losing wayward friends
As he lifts off in a gulf stream jet
Righteousness in the name of Jesus

Speaks in a church that is a stadium
Paid for by sweat of his audience

Stalks the stage like a demon
But lost souls aren’t what he’s looking for

Deeper within but not your heart
Picks your pocket gains your wallet

Playing on God and decency
While he makes grand larceny

Tithes to heaven have meaning
Mansion on the hill means nothing to me

Somewhere in Houston
Sits a king of deception

Nothing so sacrilegious
As making a buck off of Jesus

Change the channel
Another Judas says

Please send your hard earned cash
To make amends for all my sins

Inspiration camp meeting
Sounds good but they’re fleecing

Send your soul to them
They’ll plant a seed for you

A seed of what the fuck
They stole from you

Not just your money
But your faith in man

God looks down on charlatans

I was watching these charlatans like Joel Osteen and inspiration camp meeting separating religious people from their money it’s disgusting
