Blameless cover
12. Menorah
Album: Blameless
Artist: Jackie Hill Perry
         
 

You used to love me
You used to hug me
You used to touch me
The hem of garment
I could’ve sworn it
It filled the temple
And now you want it just to flaunt it
You getting rich from being Christian
Is it cross or commas
I ain’t ya mama when you outside
Pushing you on the swings
Ain’t letting you kiddos slide
This gym is a jungle
The only lion without a pride
Opinions will crumble
The cookie cutter is cutting lives
Don’t think it’s sweet
I know you tell truth, I love that
You seen the priests going live
And asked them where the blood at
You seen these preachers throwing lies
And asked them where the glove at
They kill the bride and want a Johnni Cochran
Just to scrub that
They hands dirty
They hand virgins a Klan purchase
With white sheets
Underneath it’s darker than plans
Searching for fan churches
With Martin Luther the King version
I seen curtains
Split in two, two natures, I been worthy
The God man
I’m here to humble you, you comfortable
I don’t mumble when I come for you
I’m something wonderful
Stevie Wonder probably wonder
When you lost sight
Is it frost bite
Love waxing cold, that menorah left
Til you walk right

I got beef with you too
I got beef with you too
I got beef with you too
I got beef with you too

You think you love me
You think you hug me
You think you touch me
The hem of garment
You never worn it
You only warm in uniform
Perform when the sermon on
When the service on
You German copy, Nazi, just concentrate
Then you might consecrate
Then you might find the door
Ima rose that supply the space
You think I’m joking, look in the book
There you’ll find the ace
Who cutting clubs with a single heart
Games are not for grace
Who runs amuck with a cringy start
This not a race
Or is it
Did I die or I didn’t
This your brain on drugs
Double minded with a biscuit
You ain’t hot or cold
It’s no wonder I keep spitting
Why you sinning, you think you earth
You think you spinning
You think you winning
But what’s gonna happen when you finished
All that chit chatting, big rapping
Gum smacking, toe tapping
Holy roller acting
Jesus is my homie
Only when He don’t be asking me
For me

I used to hug you, I used to touch you
I thought I loved you
I'd rather humble
Than let my sensitive heart rebuttal
I didn't pay you no mind
And you said my mind was doubled
Honestly, I got on my grind
You see, my decline was subtle
David's son said to free myself
From the major debt
Then David Ramsey
He gave the keys with the baby steps
I paid the loans
Then made a home and a baby next
Bought it cash, two on the dash
Of the Mercedes SOS
Wasted time on the Rolex, I'll make it plain
Winnin' ripped James out of the Kodak
Secure religions
Caring for the widows and the orphans
I'm out in Bora Bora
Tryna live off the endorphins
Passin' by a bum on the corner
Askin' for quarters
Saw a dad and daughter
Goin' to war about an abortion
Took my phone out for some content
I could record and said
Limitations three hundred twenty-four
The Lord is my portion
Ah man
I built a platform that was all sand
Gettin' spit out of the mouth of the God-man
Apathetic, not apostolic, the fact is
Catechism is catastrophic, redacted
I'm the clay and you are the part of my Father
I give my heart back
To where it started in living water
A lot of hope from a little pain, it hits harder
A lot of growth, a little wane, the sixth Carter
Lord, forgive me for my sins and sensibilities
I get emotional when this ever gets brought up

I wanna hug you, I wanna touch you
It's hard to love you
You said there's one thing you have against me
My heart is troubled, my zeal strong
But without love, you made it simple
A noisy gong, a clanging cymbal
A weighty symbol
Dog, I've been returnin' to my vomit
rather take the kibble
Pray too little, emancipate from hate
I think of His grace too little, yeah
Hailstone and brimfire
I got it backwards
Like the way I built my tripwire
I've been known to kick a liar
Out the Holy Empire
But what you desire is a liar in a kid's choir
Or prostitute in one that's gonna sit by her
Savior of all civilization, the better Sid Meier
Repentance, all I had to give
It's written on my face
I sit calm
Cause I'm hidden in His will and grace
