I AM SQUARE <\/p>\n

07-27-2014<\/p>\n

I am square, and I don’t care,
\nIf you think I’m out of date.
\nI will give a nod, to my God,
\nBecause He controls my fate.<\/p>\n

Okay fine, here is my line,
\nYour world’s just second rate.
\nIf you laugh, and be so daft,
\nYou will cry outside the Gate.<\/p>\n

But you can win, just take Him,
\nReject that old Devil’s bait,
\nAccept God’s love, from above,
\nFarewell to the serpent’s hate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
