Bible Belt Lyrics

Maybe you grew up a little like I did

Maybe you knew someone like me as a kid

Maybe you worked through your own shit

Or learned that the one fix is

Believing you can pray it away, but hey

They hit you over the head with it

Stuff it down your throat

Say ya need to be forgiven

While they keep casting stones

And I know that they mean well

They're just trying to save ya from hell

But I'm still bleeding from that beating

I got from the Bible belt

They told me Jesus would save me from my sin

But they still paint pictures of Him with white skin

They made some bad outta that Good Book

And I hate that it took

So long to get over what it did to me, cause

They hit you over the head with it

Stuff it down your throat

Say ya need to be forgiven

While they keep casting stones

And I know that they mean well

They're just trying to save ya from hell

But I'm still bleeding from that beating

I got from the Bible belt

No there ain't nothing wrong with having religion

Ain't trying to change noone's mind

Ain't trying to look down or judge their convictions

Just wish they would stop judging mine

Cause they hit you over the head with it

Stuff it down your throat

Say ya need to be forgiven

While they keep casting stones

And I know that they mean well

They're just trying to save ya from hell

But I'm still bleeding from that beating

I got from the Bible belt

Yeah I got from the Bible belt
