Sometimes the first ones to judge you
Are gonna be the ones
Pretending that they love you
They wash their hands of you
And say they're praying for your purpose
But it takes the dirt to show the world
What a real diamond's worth is...
Church!
You don't know my struggle
Or where I've been
Or the hell that my mind feels
If you ain't stood in these shoes I'm walking in
It's like I'm dancing in a mindfield
Losing myself in a world of pain
I got everybody saying
I'm too bad to change
But you ain't got a finger good enough
To point out my sin...
If you ain't been down the roads I've been
I'll be the first to put it on the table
My life, my heart, my mind ain't all that stable
My heart is willing
But my flesh feels so unable
But I believe that
I'm more than a dirty label
I ain't got no time for no games
I ain't attracted to a life
That's looking so plain
I'm open about my struggles
And you call it profane...
Whiskey, weed and women
With a little bit of cocaine
The only difference between me
And a world that talks is
I ain't been ashamed of the road I've walked
It's cuz I'm knowing in the end
That I'm only being built
Upon the roads that I've been
That's Church!
You don't know my struggle
Or where I've been
Or the hell that my mind feels
If you ain't stood in these shoes I'm walking in
It's like I'm dancing in a mindfield
Es como si estuviera bailando en el campo de la mente
Losing myself in a world of pain
I got everybody saying
I'm too bad to change
But you ain't got a finger good enough
To point out my sin...
If you ain't been down the roads I've been
It's like I'm living out your taboos
But keep it real your closet's
Looking pretty bad too
Cuz more than once
You've probably walked inside my damn shoes
Feeling like your past is permanent
Just like your tattoos
Sooner or later
You're gonna fall
For what the world is saying
And start believing that you're lost
And ain't no point in praying
It's like you're hungry
But a change just ain't on the menu
Thinking God ain't listening
Cuz He's just too disappointed in you
Cuz you done failed
You done fell
Need rebooted up
You had the world
Inside your hands
And you screwed it up
So put that lesson in your pocket
Welcome to the club
Cuz I been through w
What you been through
And you been through
What a few been too
It's called Church!
You don't know my struggle
Or where I've been
Or the hell that my mind feels
If you ain't stood in these shoes I'm walking in
It's like I'm dancing in a mindfield
Losing myself in a world of pain
I got everybody saying
I'm too bad to change
But you ain't got a finger good enough
To point out my sin...
If you ain't been down the roads I've been
I came through life scarred
Battered, broken, outspoken about my dirt
I wear my sin out on my sleeve
And I ain't changing my shirt
I ain't afraid to feel
The breeze of a few hateful words
To find the purpose in my pain
And hope that lives in my hurt
I heard that this life's all about
What you look for
And the story ain't done
Until the book closes
You can write this page
Where the good shows
And leave the bad in the past
Where it should go
Think about the pain
Don't climb into bed with it
You can love the past
Just don't have a kid with it
Live in every moment
Like the very last minute
Life ain't about the dirt
But it is what you did with it
Church!
You don't know my struggle
Or where I've been
Or the hell that my mind feels
If you ain't stood in these shoes I'm walking in
It's like I'm dancing in a mindfield
Losing myself in a world of pain
I got everybody saying
I'm too bad to change
But you ain't got a finger good enough
To point out my sin...
If you ain't been down the roads I've been
If you ain't been down that road
Then you can't understand my soul
How you gonna judge me
If you don't know where I've been?
