The Hellfire Lyrics

Tell me the truth, what's keeping you honest if your only motivator is the other shoe

What's the point of making up a bunch of rules if you need a divine guard to stop you

Some sins are sins to some but not all and who are you to make the call

Then there's just hurting people hurting people

When they wanna, do you wanna, what's to stop you? Do I wanna? Well, no

If the only reason to be good's the hellfire

How do you learn to love another

Don't fear make you a liar

What kind of father loves with threats and asks you to be a martyr

Cult thought's religion these days, how's any of this a self starter

Well can I get an amen

Amen, hallelujah, amen

If your man tells you it's simple when it's complicated

That's a lie so obvious it'd drive the honest insane

If y'all really need your own reality to wash the harsh of life down

I suppose I do have pity

But if you let the pulpit demonize your children

Tell you get your voice and name into the ring on just one thing

Then anybody claims to be the messiah of your party cooks every meal

For the next few hundred weeks

If the only reason to be good's the hellfire

How do you learn to love another

Don't fear make you a liar

What kind of father loves with threats and asks you to be a martyr

Cult thought's religion these days, how's any of this a self starter

Yeah, well can I get an amen

Amen, hallelujah well, amen
