I'm Glad I am Reborn

I'm Glad I am Reborn

Finally, I am here Lord, my work just never ends.
Billy lost his glasses, and Susie can't make friends.
Sam's so busy at the church, he never talks to me.
Just another day in church in the Land of the Free.

I know I promised to check in every day,
and you have no idea how much I need to say.
I wasn't cut out to be a wife and mother.
I feel more like a slave to smother.

I don't mean to dismiss your plan that husband is number one.
Women are the weaker vessel says the father and the son.
It's just sometimes it makes me so mad to hear 'no, my dear,'
I screw up things on purpose so he'll notice I'm really here.

I know it could be worse. I could be one of those other wives.
Where women don't mean anything in those guys' eyes.
Covered up by dark hot cloth, flom her head to the toes.
Why she hangs around that bunch, heaven only knows.

I know I need to do better, be pure, be true, keep values high.
I should pray for everyone, even the lazy ones who don't try.
What happened to the olden days when we all cared for each other
or kept our mouths shut if we had no one, in lonliness to suffer?

Now, it's Medicaid and Medicare, give coins here and dollars there.
Put one foot in front of the other, never forget to call your mother.
Be ever thankful for what you got and to whom you belong.
Being born again is the way to go even if I get it wrong.

Well, time to go. Sorry for all the rant.
I try to pray in holiness but find sometimes I can't.
I really wonder, and I'm ashamed I do.
I'm looking forward to when the second life's through.
