church girl - yoshua lyrics

[verse 1]
it’s like 6 in the morning, jasmine’s yawning
spent the night fawning over memories awesome
then mama walks in, yelling “time to get up!”
jazzy need some folgers in her cup
gotta go to church, but is it because she wants to?
or because she has to? she don’t know if it’s true
like, is god there for her? or is god in her area?
jasmine don’t know and it’s scaring her
but put away those thoughts, it’s time for church
in the pew, phew, she made it, now act cool
pastor up on stage preaching another message
’bout god and his lessons, the unfettered testing
that sections us gon’ lead to blessings, but
where they at? where is he?
say it’s facts, how can they be
so sure of anything, of what they can’t see?
what if it’s a pipe dream, made to control things?
she’s unsure about the whole thing
it’s a whole thing

[chorus]
church girl living out for the world
wondering if what they say is how it is
have faith like a kid, ’cause the poor man get rich
the first shall be last, and the last shall be first
so what does that make her

[verse 2]
she’s, uh, a little bit caught up in b–boo things
she sitting bedside waiting for phone to ring
ricky bobby, her mind going shake and bake
la-di-da-di her thoughts keep her awake
it’s the generation of uncertainty
asking all type questions, like “what are we?”
she need jesus in her life, that’s clear
but she seizing up, that girl full of fear

[bridge]
when can we tell her?
when does she know?
she out there so reckless
eyes on the road
she caught up in doubts
open her mouth, words don’t come out

[verse 3]
i know what you’re feeling
i know it’s unclear
i know you’re just wishing
that he would appear
but listen to me
he’s got your back
i know you don’t see it
but he took those lashes to the back
and he carried that cross all the way to golgotha
they pinned him down, hands and feet were nailed
and blood was all in his hair
and the lots that were cast for clothes
and the vinegar pierced his nose
then he looked down, and it was finished
the earth quaked, he commit his spirit
so now the children, the men and women
they can be saved, it’s an empty grave
jesus on the way
