Gemstones - Temple lyrics

[Bridge: GemStones] Granny introduced me to Jesus Said He rose and healed all diseases Lift those that still fall to weakness Heal souls that feel Paul with meekness Will those that feel called as preachers In silk robes that feel called to reach us To shift those that withdraw from deepness And teach those that some thought was reachless, uh [Verse 1: GemStones] Walking through them church doors, tryna turn a new page Choir wearing grey robes, excited to exalt praise Fire for the Lord grows, feeling like I'm all saved Soon as three o'clock roll, I'm back into my old ways Just called a friend, now I'm back riding with him Cracked all the gin, now I'm backsliding with him Sex marks the end of the baptised living Saying naw within but the flesh side willing Love God, my pen but I'm less tie driven Bob Marley's hand cut it, best John Lennon Lord God, I'm praying that You'll bless my spirit Tryna grab Your hand, but I can't stop sinning [Hook: GemStones] Something 'bout His grace it makes Me wanna praise His name And so I praise Him more My granny had crazy faith She always made us pray She said that You were Lord If I should die before I wake, I pray to the Lord my soul to take Hope I go where roads of gold are paved Don't close the gates [Bridge: GemStones] Granny introduced me to Jesus Said He rose and healed all diseases Lift those that still fall to weakness Heal souls that feel Paul with meekness Will those that feel called as preachers In silk robes that feel called to reach us To shift those that withdraw from deepness And teach those that some thought was reachless, uh [Verse 2: GemStones] Standing in the first row, wearing her Dior shades Care about her wardrobe, more than she adore praise Playing like she's so ho, praying like she's so saved Damned in her poor soul, headed for a short grave Let's all pretend we can act authentic That fall she did was an act, all gimmick Showing all her skin on the racks, no tennis Any smaller pants and them snaps won't finish Let all the band members tap, no limits Preach all we stand, coz our backs so cleanish At the altar praying, it's an act, all image Living false, pretends that she has no blemish [Hook: GemStones] Something 'bout His grace it makes Me wanna praise His name And so I praise Him more My granny had crazy faith She always made us pray She said that You were Lord If I should die before I wake, I pray to the Lord my soul to take Hope I go where roads of gold are paved Don't close the gates [Bridge: GemStones] Granny introduced me to Jesus Said He rose and healed all diseases Lift those that still fall to weakness Heal souls that feel Paul with meekness Will those that feel called as preachers In silk robes that feel called to reach us To shift those that withdraw from deepness And teach those that some thought was reachless, uh [Verse 3: GemStones] Eyes on his church clothes, pride got his chest raised Look at what I just sold, look at what I just gained Anything your birth grows, even in his worst stage Same thing that cursed Job, but never since the first grade Let go of my sin I procrast, God willing Get involved my friend, you ain't blessed, start kneeling Giving all you can with the breath God's given That is all I can, so progress God's healing There'll be loss of hands if you can't stop stealing Steadfast from sins as the West Park dealers Pray you're washed and cleansed like a press, dark [?] Jesus died so man could be blessed, start living [Hook: GemStones] Something 'bout His grace it makes Me wanna praise His name And so I praise Him more My granny had crazy faith She always made us pray She said that You were Lord (x3) If I should die before I wake, I pray to the Lord my soul to take Hope I go where roads of gold are paved Don't close the gates
