nathan r. allen - god pays for hell by returning love lyrics

[intro]
i’ve got a record of ecclesial gang banging
far as the east is from the west coast denominations
don’t wear our colors, you get labeled as satan
we call grace amazing then go slang salvation
babies hooked on the taste of lactation
thanks but we can wash our own kids’ brain stems
have faith, we’ll be safe in a cynicism sanctum
clutch our idols, calling others pagan

[interlude]
(jesus…) what do you say to a
child who got told that stockholm was god’s home?
(jesus…) is it taken in vain
exclaiming or making violence in your name?

[verse 1]
inaugural star role, don the full armor
guard your heart from those hard-hearted garters
who target us the spotless for their catharsis
asking why is defiant, but there’s honor if you’re martyred
we are the master users of the manual
handing spoonfuls of truth to you like no other pastors do
you believe in absolutes, you have to choose us or them
one is sin, one option gets you out of punishment
so fulfill your commission
by any means needed, just don’t tarnish our image
target statistics, it’s all for the kingdom
how we bully, seduce to subject to our message
it’s -ssent to our tenets that pays sin’s wages
so you don’t wanna let your faith drift
see you get safer the more your name is placed in our debt
because we are the body of the savior that bled

[hook]
(jesus…) so that’s your wife?
always trying to bite the fruit on the safer side
(jesus…) who earns our trust
where the insecure make love and give birth to guns
(jesus…) you’re her cavalier
but i see her swing her sword at the deafest ears
(jesus…) do we take your name in vain
exclaiming or making violence

[verse 2]
what are you protecting, who’s protecting you?
pointing fingers shows you’re a little sheltered too
it’s a question of preference, what’s your favorite enslavement?
what breast pocket crest locks in your salvation?
the rules that keep the mundane rhythm ritually
in your community, it’d crush you to see die
this is your name and it’s your life
tell me you wouldn’t use your power just to keep it alive?
and this is how you justify it: it’s all out of love
it’s your child, it’s your people, it’s a n0ble cause
look what we get when we build our ident-ty
from what was meant to be temporary
crippled caretakers cradle their malnourished sons
‘til they rent vfws to sing better songs
the whoring of babylon continues to circle on
scared nurslings scrambling in search of a (jesus)
