[Intro: JGivens]
Heavenly Father
Reveal the illusions
And renew the mind
[Verse 1: JGivens]
Lord save us from them Hugh Jackmans and them Christian Bales
Them Ed Nortons and Jessica Biels
Lord reveal the real
Now let me make these references clear
Just in case the last lines climbed over your ears
Save us from illusionists and magicians
Whose sentence confuses us
Cause the lie looks true to us
And we tryna maintain a mind on our own
But we used to lust
And carnally a definition of a win is like a lose to us
So Holy Ghost repeat the truth to us
That they bruise you up to reveal the fake in the lens
Help us repent the hallucinogens
Then, it all lined up like an Andis
The prophets painting a picture
The portait where the lamb was slain
Now red paint reigns from the canvas
Feet covered in red like, "We're not in Kansas"
He answered the question, why question the answer?
That's how true love was expressed, no panda
They k**ed our big brother
But on the third day
He was rolling stone like papa was a rolling stone
[Bridge: JGivens]
See it's not about your good
Because your good is only compared to other evils
We think our good is good when it's actually evil
Just not as evil as something else
So what do we do then?
It sounds like we need help
Well our help comes form the name of the Lord
The maker of heaven and earth
[Verse 2: JGivens]
I looked up at the cross where they saw you
Beyond recegnition, your face was marred too
And I would serve this subpoena and receive the court order in the mail
So I figured I should call you
Cause I don't think that I can pay for this lawsuit
Help me to fully understand what it cost you
We were acquitted when they spit at and they scarred you
Your grace is sufficient, I don't need that car too
Forgive me for my carnal state of thinking
I reach into the dark rebellion from your kingdom
Afraid to return cause I thought I'd embara** you
My own understanding can't even compare to you
I was falling, terrible
I mistook my backpack full of books for a parachute
But then there was you, the King of the Jews
Whose kingdom keys are hidden in the parables
Lord, John cue me, give a new heart
And please remember before you're like a spark
My nose to the spine of the booklet that bonds
The word that they gon' outlaw in the end times
And these lines ain't no pretend rhymes
Look at the news we talking 'bout this time
[Bridge: JGivens]
See people think they got time
They say, "Oh you know what, I'm just gon' get better
And then I'll go to Christ"
But that's an illusion
The Bible says while we were still weak Christ died for us
God doesn't clean the fish and then catch 'em
It's backwards
You see, he catches 'em and then cleans 'em
So first get caught, then get caught up
[Verse 3: L-Dub]
Hi, my name is L-Dubs
It's dub music
Every weekend I dance to club music
They pa**ing bottles 'round like ? God and use it
Until your heads spinning like ferris wheel
And just tryna get a freaky chick to come grind against you
Then 'em better get you wanna in 'em like a sweater for the winter
Game on blizzard and you keep on slipping
And the pastor say you ? as long as you ain't winning
Falling from your pedastal
Somehow you keep sinning, so you figure why try give a?
But JGivens, I mean
Jesus gave the blood
Brings Thanksgiving like the turkey and the stuffing
His Word is saints' dinner, mmmm
Ain't you glad that He paid all that, blood cover now
You ain't gotta taste all that
Now I ain't gotta ask if you really a Christian
But do recommend to be a Christian that's living
[Outro: L-Dub]
You see nowadays
Society and the church says that you gotta be absolutely perfect
And if you're not you're gonna burn in hell
But that's not the reality
Cause if that was the truth
If we could just change ourselves that way
What would we need Christ for?
It's the power of God that transforms us
So 'stead of reaching for perfection
Just follow Christ and let His love guide you
And before you know it, it'll transform your life
