Have we become so careless that we could care less about our health?
Because we’re so hungry we will eat anything off the shelf
Shoving everything down our throats, keeping it to our self
Becoming heavy to the point the buckle has to be loosen around our belt
At first it was good but the outcome was something you didn’t anticipate
Should have looked and read the expiration date; sorry two days late
If only we’d wait, we’d realize some things aren’t meant for our plate
But desperation follows so we swallow at any rate
Spiritually bulimic we go for anything we can get our hands on
But then throw it back up when the feeling doesn’t last long
Now my warning may cause some to turn their backs on me
But I believe there is a reason labels have “Nutrition Facts” in plain sight to see
Just because it’s edible doesn’t mean it’s meant for you to eat
Just like every word God gives you isn’t meant for you to speak
Every story you hear isn’t meant for you to repeat
Just like every shoe that comes out isn’t meant to touch your feet
So what am I saying? Sometimes we make ourselves sick them blame the enemy
It’s the classic “He Said, She Said;” “Who did it? ‘Not me’”
Tipping the scale because we’re overweight with the cares of this life
Then we get upset when our nutritionist suggests that our portions get sliced
Or would you rather get sliced? His word is the sharpest knife
I’m just trying to point you to the Christ; now that’s what I call, “Seeing the light”
