Stupid
Unmasking Deceit: Bobby Womack's Revelation on Manipulation
Lyrics
Preacher is preaching
Preacher is delivering a sermon
How you should live
Advising on how one should live
Instead of teaching
Instead of imparting knowledge
With the love they give
Not sharing love in their teachings
They ask for money
Demanding money in the Lord's name
In the name of the Lord
Exploiting religious beliefs for personal gain
And they line their pockets; keep coming back for more
Lining their pockets and repeatedly seeking more
Dragging you down
Bringing you down
Chipping away
Gradually eroding and undermining
Misleading you all with the things they say
Deceiving with false statements
What they feed you
The doctrines they provide
Strive to believe
Encouraging blind belief
Giving you just enough to make you needy
Providing only enough to keep followers dependent
By the time you wake up they're already gone
When you realize the deception, they're already gone
Looking for the next fool to come along
Searching for the next vulnerable person to deceive
Dragging you down.
Continuing to bring you down
Chipping away
Persistently wearing away at your beliefs
Misleading you all with the things they say
Deceiving with false statements (repeated)
Shatters your world
Destroying your world
Spoiling your mind
Corrupting and contaminating your thoughts
Keeping your heart
Retaining control over your emotions
Prayer divine
Referring to prayer as something divine
Dragging you down
Continuing to bring you down (repeated)
Chipping away
Persistently eroding and undermining (repeated)
Misleading you all with the things they say
Deceiving with false statements (repeated)
Shatters your heart
Breaking your heart
Foiling your mind
Sabotaging your thoughts
Prayer divine
Describing prayer as something divine (repeated)
