jesus had baggage, too

it don't matter who you are
it don't matter who you meet
you could be the rich guy down the street
driving your lexus up and down the block
or the doctor with the degree
or the homeless guy with only one sock
everyone, and i mean everyone
has baggage
some hate to carry it
it really puts them out
hauling those big ass bags around
others just keep switching hands
saying they can manage
just as long as they get a break
from the weight in their hands
still others won't admit they carry
anything at all
they keep walking around hunched over
pretending they stand six feet tall
but what you gotta remember
is that even jesus had baggage
he knew what was coming and he couldn't quite explain
the something that was coming
the inevitability of the pain
he sweat tears of blood
he prayed to his god and even then
even then
even then
he had to finish what he started
he couldn't lay down his bags
and say "it is finished" or
"i'm done"
until the last nail had been blasted
into his bone
