I can't ignore it man |
|
I can't ignore it man |
|
No |
|
Man |
|
I don't wanna put away |
|
I don't wanna put away |
|
But I don't want to ruin my life |
|
I'm trying to live my own theology but I'm still confronted by my own hypocrisy |
|
I've lost count of all the ways I contradict the things I say in things I pray |
|
And when I recite from my own Bible against my own Christ |
|
Man I love Him to the core but it's still a struggle trying to love Him even more |
|
Yes I wanna finish well never bring shame |
|
And never sprinkle dirt on the son of God's name |
|
I wanna stand firm I wanna end strong |
|
But I be so afraid that I'm gonna end wrong |
|
And provide for my self again and supply for my selfish sin |
|
In spite of the knowledge You are a perfect friend |
|
Lord hold me up I know You hear me praying saying |
|
I don't wanna put away |
|
I don't wanna put away |
|
But I don't want to ruin my life |
|
How is it that if something being loved with the taste scrape crumbs off the plate |
|
Let none go to waste keep eating in it eating in it take a drink eating in it |
|
Bout a week later put none to your face exact same ingredients numb to the taste |
|
Is my tongue in the way am I dark am I fake |
|
Or am I just exhausted appetite lost it is my heart cold or is it just frosted |
|
How long is my crave is is my hunger my thirst is |
|
Having a relapse for idol God worship |
|
I know this is dangerous wrong and deceit but it's looking so sweet like bon-a-petit |
|
I know God is my Father and I am His son |
|
He provides for me I should not jump the gun |
|
Said I know this is dangerous wrong and deceit but it's looking so sweet like bon-a-petit |
|
Voila |
|
Then I have to tell myself He was tempted to provide for Himself too |
|
Dry desert no food forty days forty nights think His appetite |
|
Wasn't like Eve's or the Israelites or like yours or like mine |
|
Then the serpent came right time right lies |
|
But He chose to be father not fed make the same choice resist the devil's bread |
|
I don't wanna put away |
|
Don't wanna put away |
|
I don't want to ruin my life |
|
Here we go |
