I'm not praying for your God

I'm not praying for your God

I'm not practicing your doctrines

I don't have to understand your religious views

To me, those are just toxic scenes 

When I pray, I pray for love instead

Not because I have to, as some prophet said 

I pray for peace, equality, and love to spread

For prosperity beyond the daily bread

Your God comes in many shapes and colors

With fine prints, complicated and hatched

My God is love, it's unconditional

It's simple with no guilt strings attached

If I want to watch a play, there's the theater

To know the latest trend, there are fashion runways

If I want to socialize, there are coffee bars

And yet I see them all in your houses of praise!

So I'm not praying for your God

The same God who stained our history with blood

The same God who dragged humanity in mud

Forgive me, don't recruit me, because I'm not
