Lee Banks - Church lyrics

rate me

Preacher preaching on the stand

I’m watching from the fifth pew, still don’t understand

I’m just tryna get a clear view ‘cause life ain’t quite right

And I done been through some things

And if you’d felt the pain you’d know why I see it, too

I wanna be better but suffer from a past life

Fast life, just wanted to shine like a flashlight

Lady on the front row, purse got a brass and a glass pipe

But catching Holy Ghost, she gotta laugh, right?

Same old shit, can’t judge it, but it’s sad, right?

Deacon was an alcoholic, used to beat his last wife

Dude played the piano, thank you Rihanna, the fag type

And the same pretty chick that was in the choir was on top of me last night

It all made sense, shit, the world full of sinning

Gun fighting and violence, every day these niggas killing

HIV spreading through the race, our women

Sad so say but look at the way we raising our children

Take a look around the church and tell me what you see

Tell me what you see

Take a look around the church and tell me what you see

Tell me what you see

Take a look around the church and tell me what you see

Tell me what you see

Take a look around the church and tell me what you see

Tell me what you see

Verse two getting worse, preacher wife cheating

With a lawyer, when they argue, she think about leaving

Got a daughter but she don’t respect, maybe for a reason

When they speak, she don’t pay attention, she just finish tweeting

Seen a gangsta give his life to God, he just finished beefing, caught a charge

Rated on his boy, he got fifty seasons at a roll

With the freezing when his nigga went to squeeze him

Paranoid ‘cause the victim’s family members wanna get even

Lot of lie, we don’t believe it, but it is what it is

Seen a couple getting baptized then christening their kid

Godfather do his best friend, baby momma in tears

‘Cause they creep around and dude don’t know they kid ain’t even his

It’s a sticky situation, but what would Jesus do?

I don’t know, I’m just as clueless as you

Nobody got the answers for all the things that we do

But if I’m wrong, well, forget it, I’m only speaking the truth

Take a look around the church and tell me what you see

Tell me what you see

Take a look around the church and tell me what you see

Tell me what you see

Take a look around the church and tell me what you see

Tell me what you see

Take a look around the church and tell me what you see

Tell me what you see
