Intro:
All that glitters is not gold
We kings of castles overthrown
Shining lights and finer things
Then we find it’s make believe
Verse I:
New clothes, new girls, new ride
Look how all the little toys they shine
The whole earth is a battlefield of the mind
It plays tricks on your eyes - make you forget that you blind
I see a lot of us braggin’ ‘bout the money we makin'
We find worth in our net worth and weight of the bacon
Six figure, seven figure - never big enough
American Dream - make you believe you should just
Gather all yo’ possessions - better hold ‘em tight
‘Cause ain’t nobody gonna wanna keep you warm at night
Iss’ no love, no love in this broken world
Might as well live for myself and these dusty pearls
Hopin’ they see my talent, I live for their applause
I made it all on my own / I rose above them all
Oo - that’s a sandcastle waitin’ to fall
What good is gaining the whole world if you lose it all?
Chorus:
Who else could be a god? - Oh oh oh oh
Nobody but God - Oh oh oh oh
Everybody wants to be a god - Oh oh oh oh
But you could never be God - Oh oh oh oh
Verse II
I know I’m not the only Christian who needs this
But yo’ pastor ain't yo’ Jesus
So he don’t need us to worship him ‘cause
We already got a Holy God who feeds us
He's still sovereign in spite of the ever popular
Belief that He don't exist and He's forgotten us
He’s got a plan in his hands that we don't understand
It’s hard to believe when we see
They shootin' up the block though / Yeah they slingin’ rock though
Up in Chi-town they get gunned down for their iPhones
Momma put her kid on the bus, but he never got back
Babies losin' lives / What kind of God would allow that?
Yeah I know / The whole earth is in chaos, but He’s still the boss
It look ugly, but keep watchin’ - He never lost
And in the in we win, so put yo’ faith in Him
‘Cause one day we’ll all bow down and sing this hymn
Chorus (1x)
