It's just a piece of paper, it says, "In God We Trust" A little sure felt good But a lot was not enough And everybody loved me when I was on a roll And I thought I had everything When I held the gold But you're not my god And you're not my friend You're not the one that I will walk with in the end You're not the truth You're a temporary shot You ruin people's lives and you don't give a second thought You're not my god Little white lies on a mirror Cut neatly in a roll Medicine that kept me from lookin' in my soul I thought you were the answer To all of my despair And you almost had me six feet down But I'm still breathin' air 'Cause you're not my god And you're not my friend You're not the one that I will walk with in the end You're not the truth You're a temporary shot You ruin people's lives and you don't give a second thought
You're not my god From the cradle to the grave Temptations all around But no matter how good the fix It's gonna take you down Now some call it a weakness Some call it a sin But it's all the same behind each game I see your evil grin But you're not my god And you're not my friend You're not the one that I will walk with in the end You're not the truth You're a temporary shot You ruin people's lives and you don't give a second thought Whoa, you're not my god And you're not my friend You're not the one that I will walk with in the end You're not the truth You're a temporary shot You ruin people's lives and you don't give a second thought You're not my god You're not my god Oh oh oh you're not my god You're not my god Mmmmm not my god Not my god You're not, you're not, you're not my god No you're not
