LYRICS:
If I don’t say glory to God on a Sunday
How come everyone thinks I’ve abandoned what I believe in
When I just wanted to sleep in
But if I say glory to God on a Sunday
I’m never good enough
They’ll wash me in the blood every weekend
When I thought I could sleep in
If I feel guilty it’ll kill me
Will they see it when I walk into the building
Put on a thicker skin before I say amen
Always told I was anointed
But now I’m just a disappointment
When you’re told you could change the world
Well that’s just way too much pressure for a 12 year old girl
If I don’t say glory to God on a Sunday
How come everyone thinks I’ve abandoned what I believe in
When I just wanted to sleep in
But if I say glory to God on a Sunday
I’m never good enough
They’ll wash me in the blood every weekend
When I thought I could sleep in
I wonder if you grew up like me
Afraid to dream, afraid of everything
Be a good girl and sit up straight
Be modest so the boys behave
If I dress a certain way
Well, they’ll have something to say
If I tell them that I pray
They’ll somehow make me feel ashamed
If I’m mentioning Jesus’ name
Will they look at me the same
If I don’t say glory to God on a Sunday
How come everyone thinks I’ve abandoned what I believe in
When I just wanted to sleep in
But if I say glory to God on a Sunday
I’m never good enough
They’ll wash me in the blood every weekend
Man, I thought I could sleep in
(Yeah)
All my life I had to fight
Held my head down in the night
Just to wake up look for light
They keep lookin’ down
Judgin’ on me wit’ a frown
Read more than me don’t make it right
Faith of a seed
You see the tears that I bleed
One day I hope you concede
For now you can’t see
Think you got it figured out
But don’t know what I got up my sleeve
Just know I believe (yeah)
You ain’t seen what I’ve seen
Been the places been
Touch the blessings I dreamed
Let me tell you everything ain’t what it seems
Yeaaa-haaahh-Whooo
I remember being a young boy
So lost and confused
Gave it my all but still they abused
Tried to misuse
Cuz I didn’t wanna give in to them
Lose and play by they rules
Damned if ya do, if ya don’t
The feelings felt as I broke
Way down deep into a mope
They broke Dear Silas a million times
But I never lost hope
Hah!
