You Mean Self Lyrics

Maybe I don't pray enough

Or I'm living a lie on the run

I've kept it a secret, this love

Like a memory, it's dangerous

What's left of holy these days?

Couldn't find it in church or the state

If I fall in line for my faith

When it's weaponized, no saving face

What I can't, I can't figure out

If you know the good word well

When you say, you say God

Why you mean, you mean self?

Preacher says God sets you free

Guess that's convenient for me

But what about the mother who grieves

Her son politicized, his broken plea?

What I can't, I can't figure out

If you know the good word well

When you say, you say God

Why you mean, you mean self?

You mean self (You mean self)

You mean self

You mean self

Oh my, oh my God

Have we gone too far?

Oh my, oh my God

Have we gone too far?

What I can't, I can't figure out

(All contemplation)

If you know the good word well

(Lost in translation)

When you say, you say God

Why you mean, you mean self?

(Lost in translation)

What I can't, I can't figure out (Figure out)

Have we gone too far? (You mean self)

Oh my, oh my God (You mean self)

Have we gone too far?
