Jesus Said Use Your Head
Bridge
Seems like this kids are just regurgitating bible verses
I don’t know if you really understand what it is that you’re preaching
The Bible says you’re to speak as the oracles of God
If you don’t want to talk the way this bible talk, you should keep your mouth shut
Cause my interpretation belong to God, Genesis Chapter 40, Read it!

Oh my god, what’s crazy
Who the hell heal the world through this pain
Should we pray, should we call on your name
Jesus said use your head, use your brain
Jesus said, Jesus said (use your head I got you)
Jesus said, Jesus Said
[Verse 1 : A-Q]
Holy communion, let me pass the bread
The communion of the apostle not what your pastor said
I probably know more than what’s in your pastor’s head
But you listen to this and tell me that’s it sacrilege
Pay your tithes, Pay your tithes but they never say it right
Everything you paid them in tithes wouldn’t save your life
I want to make it to heaven he said “he paid the price”
But if it’s hell I promise, I go there in Mercedes ride
You refuse to pick up the bible to learn
What you don’t know will make your home a permanent earn
Knowledge is power, and that the power to get your life back
My brother, I don’t know it all but I’m giving you life hacks
Jesus casted out demons with the word, not with brooms and canes, not with crosses and chains
Some others might be casted out with faster than pain
We a generation of killers from the bloodline of Cain
Let the children come to me you made slaves
Made them church workers without minimum wage
I told them to say the Lord’s Prayer, they said hallow be thy name
I asked them what it meant and they couldn’t tell me plain
Using it in vain, reciting what you don’t know about
Easily brainwashed when you don’t know what you should know about
Empty vessels has you go about churches on Sunday talking about what you don’t know about, you just gloat about
What you teach your kids is what they teach your kids
But learn what to teach them so the cycle repeats
And beg lord for wisdom so you don’t beat your kids
Spare the rod and spoil the child but you can show me where your bishop lives
You should read about what freedom is, religion is your prison and ignorance will be your synonym
I’m not trying to judge but to be Christian is Christlike
Jesus called out the Pharisees when they ain’t act right
Before you call me out, get your facts, I’m not for the trends
I’m just switching on for the flashlights
A man of God is still a man of God
Because we are all sinners we can have the dialogue
And I’m not trying to get half of y’all annoyed or paranoid
I can care less about your voice from a mile of blood
Here’s something to get your mind right
More than half of your men of God are not Christlike
[Verse 2 : M.I Abaga]
I know you said touch not my anointed but I’m just so disappointed
I don’t know whose your voice is, so how do I know what the point is, you tryna make
Did you not see the ceiling was falling, did you not hear her screaming, and calling
Men of God accused of stealing, appalling
So who’s gonna rescue the feeble and fallen
Meanwhile see them proceeding with what they calling
Speaking in parables like when you were here and you were strolling
Cause if I call them out by name, carima homicide
But who’s gonna prophesize for those who prophesize, for prophe-sigh
A lot of ignorance in the church, I have so many friends who each insignificantly been hurt
I find myself just wishing that you emerge for those who actually search
It’s so noisy, it’s hard to get back to your word
But in the meantime is just a me and you time
No longer need to see signs to know I’ll be fine, It’s not your design
It’s not favour over labour, its favour for those who labour
The mercy and hand of God is really how we treat our neighbor
When we table our prayer before you, say we seeking your face
You asked for voter ID and asked who did you vote in to place
Cause that’s security, healthcare, better roads in your state
You took money to vote for who? Be like you people dey craze
Religion is the opium of the masses, you want to know God is good.
Here’s what to do, pay your taxes, send your children to classes no matter the gender of child
The poor people you see begging their pain was meant to be smiles
So one Sunday instead of offering to me, offer to them
Pay your doctors well and wash your diseases, you’ll be conquering
I’m your shepherd and you’re my sheep
Now listen, this is deep
Don’t let another sheep convince you, you a sheep
