Sistas
by Rev. Addie S. Robb


Sistas, Why you Fussing, Cussing, and Discussing, All about nothing. You should be respecting each other for the beauty we hold within, Instead, you’re cussing, and fussing committing all kinds of sin. What’s the problem, Sistas, does it lie inside of you, That you cannot give each person their just due. Walking around with your head in the air, standing tall, Baby, don’t you know ­ you setting yourself up for a fall. Can’t speak, to important to say a word, How you living Sista, I ain’t never heard. Hands waving all in the air, Lord have mercy, don’t you even care. Tearing people down, is that how you get your kicks? You’d probably be good at even throwing bricks. It’s time for a change, it’s time for a change, I guess for you that really sound strange. It’s time to get it right, stop the fight, don’t be so uptight, Learn to have compassion, show love and respect, This kinda thing works more than at night. If you do this right, God will answer your prayers, And show you mercy, love and that He really cares.
