A Naked Soul
Only the good Lord knows
Why he took everything from me
Leaving nothing to decompose
Standing alone with a naked soul
Could there be a possibility
That all those possessions
Including love and affection
Were the chains that bound me
In a place I needed to leave
Maybe being lonely with nothing
Is really my salvation
From the sins of possessions
From needing faster and bigger
From wanting a brighter color
From hoping for more and more
When so many just dream of a roof and a door
Could it be I’m finally free
That lonely and hungry
Will be the focal point of my journey
Could it be that greed
Is what keeps a man from seeing need
What if taking things from me
Is really giving salvation to me
I wonder if a man must be
Baptized in the free of nothing
To be cleansed of possession sins
Leaving nothing to decompose… Just a naked soul
