Die for This

I can show you
Don't you hold me back, no
I would die for this
I would die for this

I can show you
Don't you hold me back, no
I would die for this
I would die for this

I can show you
Don't you hold me back, no
I would die for this (uh)
I would die for this (yeah)

If I was sent back to the time of the patristics
And was captured by the romans in their own jurisdiction
Put my head in a guillotine with my mystic friends
You could bring me back to life and I would do it again

Sacraments are my life jacket, I fasten and float
This world is a journey, I'm not attached to this boat
Fossils of Metacarpals of apostles who wrote
Gospels of hope, echoes by conscience of folks to office of popes

Like Saint Peter, crucify me upside down
I would gladly oblige with an upside frown
Like Jonah, I might drown but Christ won my crown
Demons run like clowns, they low, I'm high ground

The blood of the martyrs
This is the seed of the church
We started in caves with fathers
Now, we here in the burbs

The more demons disturb
The more sweet in the herbs
The more egos in hurst
The more the freedom occurs

I can show you
Don't you hold me back, no
I would die for this
I would die for this

I can show you
Don't you hold me back, no (yeah)
I would die for this (yeah, for this)
I would die for this (uh, yo)

I ain't woke, I'm just AM
Like our lady, I say "yes"
I pray for those who betray us
Offer them up in your prayers

I'm on the road to Emmaus
They want you focused on mayhem
Be at peace and obey him
The golden streets are my way in

Holy eucharist, substance and accidence
I do this for dead souls not dead presidents
Erect developments golden monuments of elegance
Skip breakfast, sunday latin mass takes precedence

Like Saint Paul my head is Tre Fontane
I roam this Earth like a dog gone stray
Imitate saint James, who took bumper to bumper
Like an eight clogged lane, church multiplied, now

Ain't that strange
If you in need of the facts
You can read in acts
Christ lead the pack

Bring freedom back
Proof when I bleed in ax
Or a need to fast
You can believe in that

I can show you
Don't you hold me back, no
I would die for this
I would die for this (I won't back down)

I can show you (uh, I can't back down)
Don't you hold me back, no (yeah, I won't back down)
I would die for this (uh, I can't back down)
I would die for this (uh, I won't back down)

I can show you (yeah, I can't back down)
Don't you hold me back, no (uh, I won't back down)
I would die for this (yeah, I can't back down)
I would die for this (uh, I won't back down)

I can show you (yeah, I can't back down)
Don't you hold me back, no (uh, I won't back down)
I would die for this (yeah, I can't back down)
I would die for this (I won't back down, down, down, down...)
