Hypocrit

I've been living like a hypocrite, hypocrite
I've been living like a hypocrite, hypocrite
Hypocrite
I've been living like a hypocrite, hypocrite
I've been living like a hypocrite, hypocrite
Hypocrite

I say one thing then I do another
I cuss a man out then I kiss my mother
I say I trust God then I turn to other
Things of this world that only cause me to suffer
My relationships feel shifty
My standing with God it feels iffy
Disappointed at Him cuz He didn't give me
What I expected Him to give me
We can be led astray in many ways
Peter says to stay sober so we can pray
When our minds on the mountains in our way
We don't see God's glory in our days
It's so easy to be led by our past
Those familiar ways, they don't last
Old times smoking weed, counting cash
Still haunt me but God gets the last laugh

I've been living like a hypocrite, hypocrite
Preaching things that I don't do
I've been living like a hypocrite, hypocrite
Tryin to fake something that ain't true
I've been living like a hypocrite, hypocrite
How long will it take to see
I've been living like a hypocrite, hypocrite
But my past ain't chained to me
Praise God I'm free!

I'm attacking like a Will Smith smack and I'm gone
Leave confusion on ya faces, you don't know if it's wrong
At the same time there's violence in all of our songs
Money, women, and guns while hitting the bong
Are we aware of the impact this has on the kids
Not just the kids though it affects how you live
Its affects where you live
The impact is too big
It's not impressive to flip your lid and spray shots at a kid
Too many kids are dying
Too many mothers are crying
How long will we run? Turn back to Zion
We can give God all the pain that we cling to
And stop the self-destruction that we naturally seem to
Bring to our lives when we think we don't need You
When really our control over life is just see-through
Want peace in this life? Then walk with The King too
He's the only one you need that will free you

I've been living like a hypocrite, hypocrite
Preaching things that I don't do
I've been living like a hypocrite, hypocrite
Tryin to fake something that ain't true
I've been living like a hypocrite, hypocrite
How long will it take to see
I've been living like a hypocrite, hypocrite
But my past ain't chained to me
Praise God I'm free!

That's right, praise God I'm free
I got His Spirit living within me
At the same time my enemy
Is trying to drain me of my energy
By speaking lies to me (Uh)
Dead in my sin like a corpse full of guilt and remorse
Till a Force led me to the Water like a horse
The Holy Spirit has changed my course
He's showing me that He is the Source
Satan likes to play mind games to put out the flame
He wants us to think that we'll stay trapped in chains
The whole world is going through labor pains
At the end of time faith, hope, and love remains
You can trust what it says in the book of James
We can taste joy and peace in the midst of pain
Knowing God's working it for a greater gain
You wanna spend your whole life just staying the same?

I've been living like a hypocrite, hypocrite
Preaching things that I don't do
I've been living like a hypocrite, hypocrite
Tryin to fake something that ain't true
I've been living like a hypocrite, hypocrite
How long will it take to see
I've been living like a hypocrite, hypocrite
But my past ain't chained to me
Praise God I'm free!

Hypocrite
Hypocrite
But my past ain't chained to me
Praise God I'm free!
