Devil's Bread

I can't ignore it man

I can't ignore it man

No

Man

I don't wanna put away

I don't wanna put away

But I don't want to ruin my life

I'm trying to live my own theology but I'm still confronted by my own hypocrisy

I've lost count of all the ways I contradict the things I say in things I pray

And when I recite from my own Bible against my own Christ

Man I love Him to the core but it's still a struggle trying to love Him even more

Yes I wanna finish well never bring shame

And never sprinkle dirt on the son of God's name

I wanna stand firm I wanna end strong

But I be so afraid that I'm gonna end wrong

And provide for my self again and supply for my selfish sin

In spite of the knowledge You are a perfect friend

Lord hold me up I know You hear me praying saying

I don't wanna put away

I don't wanna put away

But I don't want to ruin my life

How is it that if something being loved with the taste scrape crumbs off the plate

Let none go to waste keep eating in it eating in it take a drink eating in it

Bout a week later put none to your face exact same ingredients numb to the taste

Is my tongue in the way am I dark am I fake

Or am I just exhausted appetite lost it is my heart cold or is it just frosted

How long is my crave is is my hunger my thirst is

Having a relapse for idol God worship

I know this is dangerous wrong and deceit but it's looking so sweet like bon-a-petit

I know God is my Father and I am His son

He provides for me I should not jump the gun

Said I know this is dangerous wrong and deceit but it's looking so sweet like bon-a-petit

Voila

Then I have to tell myself He was tempted to provide for Himself too

Dry desert no food forty days forty nights think His appetite

Wasn't like Eve's or the Israelites or like yours or like mine

Then the serpent came right time right lies

But He chose to be father not fed make the same choice resist the devil's bread

I don't wanna put away

Don't wanna put away

I don't want to ruin my life

Here we go
