The Angel Prepared Me

Indicting the quiet -
Insulting the crowds -
Inciting a riot -
Interpreting vows -
All these things and more I do for
Reasons I can't stand.
Giving everything I wanted
For a people stilted; stunted.

Tell me your secrets
Sweet Gabriel Angel,
And while in the womb, I'll listen to you
Just give me the lips
That are cleansed by the coal;
One day I'll speak mysteries too.

Remanding the fake
Regarding their lies -
Recinding the hate
Repressed in their eyes -
All these things and more I do
For people hard to swallow.
Leaving all I cared to find
To make my case and speak His mind.

Tell me your secrets
Sweet Gabriel Angel,
And while in the womb I'll listen to you
Just give me the lips
That are cleansed by the coal
One day I'll speak mysteries too

Unplanned caring,
Understanding
Underwhelmed and
Undemanding;
Feeling hopeless and disjointed,
I still stay the course:
Loving they who thought me heartless;
Stayed though I'd like to depart this.

Training, strained and forced service,
Standing, hands been wrapped with binding,
Fighting, plights have almost hurt us,
Crying, sighs come as they're dying.

Tell me your secrets
Sweet Gabriel Angel,
And while in the womb, I'll listen to you
Just give me the lips
That are cleansed by the coal
One day I'll speak mysteries too.

So sayeth The Brad...
