Let Justice Roll Down Lyrics

Let justice rolled down, is what we say. Tell me, is it what we mean?

The lion and the lamb, is what we preach. Tell me, is it just a dream?

Justice is more than a song, it's more than a word, there's more to see

It's more than a fight, more than a deed, there's more to be

Well, we sing all the songs, say the words, pray the prayers, but we never quite make it to you

Come and die, three words said on Sunday, as we see complacent in our pews

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Let justice rolled down, is nice to say to those with privilege in our veins

But when those with the boot on their neck hold us to our word

We'd rather leave them in their chains

Justice is more than a nod, it's more than some cheap-ass apology

No it pulls back the veil on a privileged and pale theology

Well we sing all the songs, say the words, pray the prayers

But we never quite make it to you

Come and die, three words said on Sunday

As we sit complacent in our pews

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Well, we sing all the songs, say the words, pray the prayers

But we never quite make it to you

Come and die, three words said on Sunday

As we sit complacent in our pews

Come and die, three words said on Sunday

As we sit complacent in our pews
