Todd Agnew - Preachers And Thieves lyrics

rate me

Janie's an addict but she feeds her family

Hank owns a bank but his kids are on the street

Janie's got a good grip on desperation

While Hank's getting fat but he doesn't see his need

As I'm standing here on this stage

Hanging from a cross that I have made

What you see is probably deceit

Only God knows the difference

The difference between preachers and thieves

Rosa's the lady in apartment fifteen

No one knows her name or what language she speaks

Or that her son is dying alone behind those walls

Separating their home from the apartments she cleans

Struggling to stand and fighting to breathe

One cries to His left and one dies to His right

One takes his last breath embracing his mockery

While the other opens his eyes in paradise
