Realizing that there's no place
And there's nobody I know
Text book solutions are so
Naked as the day that I was born,
Oh wretched man that I am,
From the body of this death
and the superficial trust
'cause I'm morally defect
By reason of the God inside my head
unable to find out my worth
'cause I... can't see past
then I just have to remove it
From my mind because it has to be in sanity
Oh wretched man that I am,
From the body of this death
that I've only been an actor
In this staged interpretation of this day
with my back turned to the light
Too intelligent to see it's me
having God trapped in a box
All this time professing to be spiritual
that I'm actually defending
God (?) don't need material
leave the deception of thy youth
Trust in the Lord, with all thy heart
oh an understanding in all thy ways
and He shall correct our paths
Be (?) you can follow him
Who religion tells us that we should
Perpetrating we're in covenant with Him
then lay ambush for the man
Who has a different point of
Infuriated 'cause he doesn't understand
Bringing up those things we
we don't know how to do good
Walking on in darkness running from the light,
because we live in neighborhoods
Telling us what's going on will be alright
so convinced that I was blessed
Oh to suggest, that my life is still a mess
Who reveal the pride I'm hiding
Abide in me and I in you,
as the branch cannot bare
...fruit of itself except in the vine
I am the vine, ye are the branches,
And I in him, the same bring
Without me, you can do nothing
you're traditions have deceived you
I've chosen you, you haven't chosen me
you asking my name he may give to you
But in vain they call my name
teaching doctrines just the same
Justified among themselves
But God know with the heart,
what man esteemed as smart
Is an abomination to Emmanuel
turn from selfish motivation
So iniquity will not cause your demise
Oh Jerusalem, please tell me why
Says the Lord God where forth turn
but the walkers and his word
Are the only ones the Father will forgive
