United States of Rome
Welcome to the United States of Rome
Where we're walking around being dumb on a smartphone
Where we learn our values from reality shows
And only outcasts promote spiritual growth
What are you a slave to How did this world claim you
Every sin that's chained you. You can only blame you
It's where the biggest religion is self
And you'd rather risk Hell than ask Jesus for help
People are going to church where God is missing
It's so sickening, replacing Jesus with politicians
How can the Christian religion have so much division
If we're all reading the same scriptures that were written
Social media is idolized. Satanism's televised
Preachers are known for telling lies, and we're too blind to open eyes
No one knows what gender is. No one knows what scripture is
But we can quote every line from celebrities and lyricists
People wear their Jesus piece, but they don't know the Prince of Peace
Looking down on your neighbors. Instead of providing what they need
Seeing Jesus as a mascot. Salvation's something we forgot
The world is grim and full of sin if God is just an afterthought
I watch intently as the game is played
A person faith is swayed
Or worse they can't engage
In Church the way that is was meant to be
Father guide your folk, idols hiding hope behind a rope of lies, light is dying slow,
In people
That don't understand the truth In how we live
It's love thy neighbor till it's inconvenient to forgive
The talk is cement seeming to be big
Weakness really sleeping on the sin we been seeing, heathen but pretend to be whole
Behold perfection in Jesus
Correction we speak with, expect you receive it
Perplexing the devil test you and get you to think that
The lessons expressions that Heaven bless us with evil
No promises of health and wealth in following Christ
Teachings of hollow men borrowing hype swallow your pride
Peep what's inside deeds not of the bride of He that died Father divide the wheat from people not on your side
Talking proper talk but not gon' abide
In your Word so tell me what you really have
A pocket full of paper but fell away from the path
If the Son you don't obey there ain't no way to see the dad
Convey this in patience praying even while on the track
Jesus Christ is the biggest event in human history
But we don't talk about him in schools. Now that's a mystery
No other man separated B.C. from A.D
And every one of the apostles died believing what they seen
TV shows are teaching evil with a laugh track
The devil likes you where you at. Too afraid to bounce back
It's never too late for the Holy Spirit to set you free
Or you could be mad at me for calling out your blasphemy
Repent and turn away from the path you used to take
Resentment burns away what you have when building faith
Expressing feelings spake on the past when feeling hate
Got down on my face and I asked the Lord for grace
It's nothing strong enough or hole deep enough that's keeping us from Lord Jesus healing touch if you make confession
Taste and see the Lord is good, door that leads to Heaven
Abide in the light forever, Jesus Christ forever
