jesca hoop - the coming lyrics

[chorus/intro]
jesus turned in his crown of thorns today
and announced
to the earth
and the heavens
the end of his reign
he took a seat next to the devil and said, “i need a new name”
and the coming never came

[verse 1]
my own love
i fervently served him and obeyed
and i walked through this world full of sinners
and i kept them at bay
’cause there’s only enough room at his table
for the souls that are saved
and they’re coming to shut to gate
you’re too little and too late
and you can’t get
but i don’t buy it
i refuse to think that my best friend’s going to ell anymore
and condescend to offer her
a key to her salvation
like it’s something i have and can afford
and i won’t blame my parents
for clinging to the good
[?] makes sense of it all
and believing in a story
like it was the bible
when it was just a tale made tall

[bridge]
hey ya
hey ya
hey ya

[verse 2]
i woke up to the most spirit-rattling scare
as i’m losing my religion
layer by layer
’cause it’s triggering all of the [?]
and the traps and the snares
it’s an old device called fear
that old device called fear
and ow it’s the long ride through the unknown
which i embrace
and the cops and the robbers
and the cowboys and the injuns
have got the same face
we’re just each of us doing out bet to get by
day by day
and heaven is yours to take
and the choices day by day
bring us closer and further way
i understood the risk
that asking any kind of question
could unravel me with one small fray
but i looked in my closet
filled with ignorance and taunters
and a fear that was turning to hate
but that is not the meaning
or intention of the teaching
or the truth from which the message came
and i can’t turn a blind eye
t centuries of conflict
and wrongdoing in his name
in his name
in his name

[bridge]
hey ya
hey ya

[chorus/outro]
jesus turned in his crown of thorns today
and announced
to the earth
and the heavens
the end of his reign
he took a seat next to the devil and said, “i need a new name”
and the coming never came
