No faith…..
He was part of those who told us to stand up
Speak out and be heard, no matter what.
Don’t follow others, but follow the truth
They prepared us to stand up and stand alone, without evidence or proof.
We accuse the abuse, not the church as a whole
Don’t they remember the lessons that taught us to be bold?
No matter what other people say
Follow your heart, follow your own way.
The themes were preached when we were small
And now they expect us to forget them all?
We learned even when we weren’t paying attention
We learned not to be afraid of any lesson.
We were taught that a half-truth is no truth at all
That poor justification is weak and unacceptable.
They taught me that my faith is the way to live and be
But they forgot to tell me that, one day, they would have no faith in me.
