jay hollywood - pardon me lyrics

[verse 1]
what is religion, this thing that i believe in?
two services every weekend, new communion every season
a staple in the way i live, i rarely even question
same religion used to excuse my people’s oppression
religion is the grounding and the balance that i needed
i searched for it in people but they never could complete it
thought a man could solve the issues in my heart that were deep+seeded
but i’ve looked and looked around and ain’t n0body do what he did
religion set me free, but religion just keep me hostage
is it self+made boundaries that keep me in this bondage?
called for god so long and still he ain’t never responded
religion my foundation, foundation, i almost lost it
rejected all the love ’cause i ain’t think that i was worth it
the overwhelming, never+ending, don’t feel i deserve it
i be in own my head thinking that i didn’t earn it
how you love me, why you love me, even when i’m not perfect?

[chorus]
i can love you (i can love you)
i can love you (i can love you)
i can love you
better than she can
i can love you (i can love you)
i can love you (i can love you)
i can love you (yeah)
better than she can (uh, uh)
[verse 2]
still waiting for those things that the fake pastors had prophesied
a jay that’s in new york, but these stories i tell ain’t verified
running to my blessings so fast, i almost qualified
was still searching for the love within women that i objectified
two kids, big house, pool, and a spouse
fell in love with an idea that went on a different route
feel like god stopping the rain, i been in this crazy drought
i’m stuck in my father’s image, will i ever make it out?
introversion only take you so far, i really need love
changed myself to please everybody and ain’t receive hugs
trauma that i’m supposed to hide, we sweep under the rugs
my father think i need therapy, i really need touch
i learned how to love, but i gotta love at a distance
i grew up, but i think that we grew apart, must’ve missed it
religion ain’t the problem with the way i’m existing
but the love of god the only remaining thing that’s consistent
and i’m saying

[chorus]
i can love you (i can love you, i’m receiving your love)
i can love you (i can love you, i’m receiving your love)
i can love you (i’m receiving your love)
better than she can (yeah, i’m receiving your love)
i can love you (i can love you, i know that)
i can love you (i can love you, he’ll answer)
i can love you (me when)
better than she can (i call)
[bridge]
where would i be, lord, without your presence?
grace you that show me, love never+ending
i am not alone
said i am not alone, yeah (yeah, yeah, uh, look)

[verse 3]
i’m my curiosity, search results is what i reflect
lil’ five+year+old be who was seeing ++++ on the internet
taught by mother, father, and something else i was hiding
change perception of reality, cravings i stopped fighting
real indoctrination from what i seen in those videos
(shh) tried to bring up the subject but i would tippy+toe
couldn’t see her outside the standards of broken fantasies
intensified by stubbornness, tightrope with insanity
sixth track of “is he real?”, first track of “rodeo”
projecting onto juliet, a self+conscious romeo
repeated all my sins and, subconsciously, i would pick up
saying that i’m done, very next day, i would slip up
the things that i seen still deeply scar my mentality
a product of safari, i question my s+xuality
scared to see what people think, reactions that the verse get
tryna overcome a problem, admitting it is the first step

[outro]
[?] wife had to go through with colorado
we ain’t gon’ even address that stuff ’cause it’s the past and what happened
but what did you learn from that whole experience?
just having to go through what you went to work?
god is great
is it that simple?
god is great, don’t get no simpler than that, bro
did you know that?
i mean, i’m, i’m s+ everybody knows that
but the way you know it now
did you know it before the attempt took place?
you can know it all you want
but until you got to pick up that cross that you can’t carry
and he picks it up for you, and carries you and the cross
then you’ll know
