"Do It For Him"

Let me just ask you some questions,

I may even make a couple of suggestions.

Hopefully, this will change your heart.

How about I just go ahead and start.

Why do you waste your time trying to please me?

Why do you walk around and act as if you can not see?

Why do you let me take over when you don't want me to?

Why do you not stand up instead of letting me abuse you?

 

Why do you whine when someone is upset with you?

Why do you not accept the wonderful things that you do?

Why do you try and handle the burdens of another?

Why do you disrespect the one who is your mother?

 

Why do you act so ungrateful?

Why do you not show that your thankful?

Why do you not remember all he has done?

Why do you think that you are able to run?

 

Has he not given his life for you to be forgiven?

Has he not done enough to earn some recognition?

Every single day that you see the sun raise

You should be opening your mouth and giving him praise.
