affirmation

no I won’t eat of the body, no I won’t drink of the blood
no I won’t gather at the river, no I won’t carry your burden
no I won’t bath in the glory, no I won’t bath in the glory
no I won’t beg for forgiveness
yes you will
no I won’t handle a serpent, no I won’t speak in the tongues
no I won’t say hail mary, no I won’t say hallelujah
no I won’t join you in worship, no I won’t join you in worship
no I won’t bow down and pray
yes you will
we’ve been at this for so long, you know what I believe
and even so you still insist, I know you’ll never leave
but I’m too old for superstition, and all your fairy tales
maybe someday you’ll grow up to, ha ha, heaven, ha ha, hell
no I won’t eat of the body
yes you will
no I won’t drink of the blood
yes you will
no I won’t gather at the river
yes you will
no I won’t carry your burden
yes you will
no I won’t beg for forgiveness
yes you will
