Derek Webb - A King And A Kingdom lyrics

rate me

Who's your brother, who's your sister<br />

You just walked passed him<br />

I think you missed her<br />

As we're all migrating to the place where our father lives<br />

'Cause we married in to a family of immigrants<br />

<br />

My first allegiance is not to a flag, a country, or a man<br />

My first allegiance is not to democracy or blood<br />

It's to a king & a kingdom<br />

<br />

There are two great lies that I've heard:<br />

"the day you eat of the fruit of that tree, you will not surely die"<br />

And that Jesus Christ was a white, middle-class republican<br />

And if you wanna be saved you have to learn to be like Him<br />

<br />

But nothing unifies like a common enemy<br />

And we've got one, sure as hell<br />

But he may be living in your house<br />

He may be raising up your kids<br />

He may be sleeping with your wife<br />

Oh no, he may not look like you think</
