man of God is who he's said to be
I met him once and he smiled at me
he spoke of God's word but something wasn't right
I looked down and clutched to my bible tight
his daughter lives in fear of him every day
she doesn't want to upset him in any way
I wonder why he can't love her without placing strings
I wonder if he realizes the fear that he brings
he uses being a man of God to have power
and to control his daughter every minute aand hour
man of God, he's supposed to be able to know
what a person is like because God tells him so
but he uses it and abuses it every chance he can
he shares the gospel but never reaches out his hand
he helps everyone except his own family
just controls them in every way it seems to me
he's not living for God at all, he is living for himself
not using God for good but rather to benefit his self
man of God, you have crushed your daughter's spirit
it is crying out for love and you don't even hear it
she has tried to please you her whole life
and all you do is tell her she didn't do it right
now she is terrified of God, thinking he's the same way
she is just a scared of living every single day
scared of making any mistake, trying to please everyone
she's looking for acceptance but you give her none
man of God, you should be ashamed of what you have done
pushed her right out of your life as she turns to run
placed a burden on her shoulders all her life
that was impossible for her to carry, it cut her like a knife
and you just sit there with no shame at all
she can't even rely on you if she were to fall
you crush her into nothing with your iron metal rod
now look me in the eye and tell me your a man of God
