about

There's the Church and there's a counterfeit phenomenon commonly phrased as "churchy." You'll find both on Sunday.

lyrics

I see you in church
I see you in church
I see you in church
You look good on Sunday
I know that there's more than what we see on Sunday,
We can honestly say, that there's more
There's more for you Lord

I be singing...choir for my church
Choir for my school, I wish choir was my work
All my friends got groups,
I sing backup when they need me
Then I'm back up in the praise team
Sunday you can see me
I know all the songs, all the keys
Solos they be callin me
James Fortune, Ricky Dillard
Nothing is to hard for me
I'm gon play, playin church is all I know
All i know is playing church, church lets put on a show

And I'm turned turned up gon wit my dance moves
I call that my praise break
You don't know what I'm goin through
Need that affirmation, that affirmation tryna find it
Its a tragic story homie you hear them violins

I'm callin fire from heaven, can't you see it?
Seeing is believing that's the reason I be preaching
Preaching Signs, and them miracles, them wonders
Spiritual my language...say I been torn asunder
I seen The Lord in Singapore
Speak a blessing, leave em poor
Thinking they ain't got enough faith
Preach a Word you need a genie for
You just get three wishes
You just get three Scriptures
My accountability low, we don't need three witness
Man I'm gone, blessed and highly favored
Gotta get this money man I better hide the Savior
So I tell em do what passa say
What massa say, massa say
Cuz if they see the Word, they see it's all gon pass away

I am not a Calvinist- I'm a Christian
Hold the doctrines of grace and God's sovereign decision
Let's keep the right identity
It's never been a remedy to put personal emphasis in the place of supremacy
Ohhhh...we turn to stalkers
Exalting authors above the Author and Perfecter, turn to scoffers
To those who ain't scholars--ain't up on their Puritans
When we really should check our hearts against our assurances
Don't mind me I'm just tryna hide my pious-ness
It's way too easy to get caught up in my biases
I know man it's so real so I'm fighting every day
Let Christ hold all my righteousness and let this flesh decay
