Saying Amen

You've got light blonde hair and skin like mine

Married in 1990, two kids by 95'

Bible by your bed, you swear Jesus knows your name

But don't think he doesn't see what you post online every day

You say you love the good book

So why don't you take a good look at yourself

Because there are people going through hell that we can't understand

Why don't you care about them?

So go on, keep on saying amen

You've got a good job now

And you say you got there with your own hands

It's real easy to preach it when you don't have to understand

That it's not saying your life's been easy

That you haven't worked for your blessings

But it hasn't been made harder by the color of your skin

You say you love the good book

So why don't you take a good look at yourself

Because there are people going through hell that we can't understand

Why don't you care about them

So go on, keep on saying amen

Amen for my trans friends brave for being alive

Amen for bible and Jesus christ

Amen for the migrants trying to find a new life

Amen for the white house and the good people still inside

Amen

You say you love the good book

So why don't you take a good look at yourself

Because there are people going through hell that you can't understand

And you don't care about them

So go on, keep on saying amen
