Truth or Piety?!

I might not be theological like you do;
But what I know, the Lord giveth!
Ain't no piety in whatever I do;
I dig deep to find Truth where it liveth!

The Good Book is my scholar texts:
From whence I cull my thoughts.
Some hypocrites with their poor bests;
Came forth to twist the Words!

It is a change of mind that brings biases;
And repentance, they say; brings new life:
The reason why some turned clergy without bases;
An overnight decision that makes them strive!

Who is holy,... that very one on the podium;
Or one of those in the congregation?!
Sometimes he do speaks out of odium;
Just to mar and twist their contemplation!

Righteousness dwells within, and not without;
If it is without, then there would be pretence!
Living in the opposite from whence they speak out;
Just to gain the world with their crafty intense!

The same you, still have the guts to write my ana;
Instead of pointing out my mistakes and stupidity!
However, I admit I am human who is but carnal;
Still I found grace and mercy, to define my turbidity!

One less of your kind, might makes the world better;
So stop acting by intuition, but rather by Truth!
I know, no one want to lose, but be a goal getter;
God giveth as He wish, and thro Him alone we find ruth!
