THE GOSPEL TRUTH Lyrics

To those who wish their soul be someone else

Who preface every breath with an apology settled in their chest

Who have looked me in my eyes and said that they would live better if they were me

I ask them

Do you know what it feels like to have your chest crushed at the sight of the moon

To breathe all this heavy out of my body every single night

Just so I can make it to the morning

Welcome to church

My soul's on the verge of a civil war

It wrestles with the beat of my broken heart

Feels like a crucifixion

Look at how they screaming shame on you

Found the medicine I needed in the liquor bottle

Smoke and mirrors had me fooled

Until I hit the bottom

I learned all my lessons

When I brought myself to face

The truth

You don't want to bear my name

It's where I hide my pain

You don't need to know what brought me here

Just know I'm still alive

I share my story cause the gospel says to speak the truth

I might look pretty but this fight is taking all my youth

Please do not mistake me

I have died a hundred times before

So I'm protective of the ones who see me shine the most

I'll shield your mind, keep a sanctuary for your growth

I pray that one day you'll know

That you can live a thousands times more, yeah

You don't want to bear my name

It's where I hide my pain

You don't need to know what brought me here

Just know I'm still alive

You don't want to bear my name

It's where I hide my pain

You don't need to know what brought me here

Just know I'm still alive

Let's have church tonight

Come, have church with me

Let's have church tonight

Come, have church with me

Let's have church tonight

Come, have church with me

Let's have church tonight
