lirik lagu jonathan solomon - intro.
[intro: vania claiborne]
no, it wasn’t like i was burnt out
it was like, not like it’s just songs
like, what? it’s just songs
people sing them and then they go home
like, and i get it
like, it’s more
like, it’s spiritual, it’s more and all that type of stuff, but
i wanted to do something that, like, had a little more meaning to it
i’m saying i’m not burnt out, i’m just resolved
like, like i don’t wanna do it
i don’t, like, i don’t get what the issue is
and i feel like i’m still honoring to the lord
it’s not like i’m not gon’ be no christian no more
i just don’t want to do this, you know what i mean?
like, that’s all i’m s–
so, did you breathe in their praises so much that you forgot what holy air tastes like?
did the fear of man cause you to make yourself the center of their story?
did the fear of man cause you to make yourself the center of the story?
did the fear of man cause you to make yourself the center of the story?
did the fear of man cause you to make yourself the center of the–?
[interlude: pastor clint darst]
bad, bad
bad, bad
bad theology can lead to very passionate
very emotional, very sincere
very unfaithful theology
so if you don’t have right beliefs about god, but you’re super passionate and expressive in your songs
you’re worshipping a false god
[verse: jonathan solomon]
i came from power surges
holy ghost reminding me to breathe again
to eat again
when english wasn’t enough, he started speaking then
would have people call me out the blue, they’d say, “take heed, my friend
god told me you trading his truth
you need to flee your sin”
i come from a place where every pastor can’t be trusted
some actually read they word and they bibles have not been rusted
but all the rest had tendencies jesus would call disgusting
false prophets with no oversight and theology busted
i come from a place where pride hides itself really well
is it a calling or an ego? it gets hard to tell
they told me i was called to preach ’cause i speak very well
but all my nerves made it hard for me to bust out that sh~ll
confusion made me wonder and i ain’t know how to play it
and title~seeking made me cringe whenever they would say it
i’m used to people saying they feel called, but not relay it
within their actions, i would say, “let’s go and spread the fragrance
of jesus since he freed us and his hand has not relented
and you can plant seeds while exercising all of your gifting”
they’d always shrug me off and say, “you not catching my sentence
the podium is where my heart feels like it would be lifted”
i understood, but said, “this is good and it’s the beginning
and for the streets for life and death, this could make the difference”
i’d always be accosted like, “man, it’s just your opinion”
i’d get stuck in my mind like maybe i kind of missed it
but i searched in my heart and all i could find that was missing
was street and church the same, but only one gives attention
but there i was years later, one album down and forgetting
that i was gifted to carry out my yahweh’s mission
feeling resolved that songs are songs; no power, no one listens
i do it all in vain because i had holy intentions
that didn’t feel accomplished and didn’t pierce like syringes
and people didn’t feel the drug of jesus i was giving
so i went on hiatus, debating how i could kick it
the phrases i would use to say worship wasn’t my business
and find a back door to walk out with no one looking
and be free of the burdens that came with this singing mission
but soon as i gave up, i asked god to help out my soul
to make me feel euphoric when singing about our friendship
instead he told me worship ain’t solely about your feelings
you might share lots in common with the false claimers you dissing
he brought the scriptures to me, interrogating intentions
and said, “your joy should be serving me and all i’m kin with
and if that ain’t enough, then you doing it for attention”
what are my intentions?
[outro: pastor clint darst]
so if you don’t have right beliefs about god, but you’re super passionate and expressive in your songs
you’re worshipping a false god
