[Excerpt]

I think God cares for us, desires for us to be healed

But I think He cares more about his glory, and that’s hard to say but I mean like

I think some people that’ve been hurt use their pain as justification for hatred, which isn’t right

Jesus was hurt, Isaiah 53 tells us He was hurt

You know what I’m saying

He was disrespected, but He chose to love us, and still chooses to love us, so I think that’s our challenge, um, as believers who have been hurt is I choose to love the church of God despite their flaws

Um, bеcause Jesus loves mе, yeah..(laughs)


[Verse: Neak]

Yo, yo, early Sunday morning, the same rituals

Let’s cure the hangovers, with Canton Spiritual

Sqwaulin, parents hands waving the praises due

Balling, shedding tears, I guess it’s sinner blues

So how y’all love God today and liquor yesterday

Hypocrites with Holy Ghost features became the mental state

My lens, so poisoned I’m skipping Sunday Service

Perfection, can’t do it so ain’t room in churches

For me Lord all in all my humanity sealed

Away locked in chains, realest me never revealed

Coping mechanism loud but I keep it concealed

I’m loving women to a fault where the scriptures that heal?

Granny paid tithes but died broke

My cuz pushed coke never prayed but blessed us with C-notes

Dripping gold jewelry, who is in deception

Confused in this religious dichotomy, question?

How you tell a youngin’ God got em

When every vice living came and gave him rock bottoms

How do you trust His only begotten…..Son…..the Holy one Jesus, only gotten…..one life…..and yet it’s torn to pieces

The hardest thing to fix is broken hearts

I read the last shall be first, but when will it all start, huh

Take apart my thought, fear of missing the mark, afraid I can’t fall short you’ll nailing me up on a cross, huh

What that do to brothers and sisters that need God?

They keep they pain tucked up inside, can’t show a scar

Gotta roll through it, do it to def, fresh, but God

At end of it, they gone see death, odd, what’s next for us?

Poor teachings a bad gospel the realest issue

The same teachings from healed pastors the soul peaceful

Some gain freedom some bound, from the same words, so really it's human error I found

You can be called to it your call don’t call off the demons

Possible we doing God’s work for the wrong reasons

Possible to preach and be lusting the wrong features

Anointed being called, can’t put back the broken pieces

Of people, lost in the world and now they lost more

Souls unhealed saying God’s name can close doors on many of His people

And what it is all worth?

A promise unseen

Welcome to Church Hurt
