Da’ T.R.U.T.H. - Judge lyrics

Yeah you can't judge me, I can't judge you
Does the church have the right to
Judge with all of our indiscretions?
Should people listen to us when
We’re quote-unquote judging them
Or holding them accountable for
The actions of
The world and within the church
You know, 'only God can judge me
That idea that’s huge in our culture
That way of thinking is very prevalent
Within the church as well

They say the church is full of hypocrites
Maybe they got a point
Another church boy is in the press
It's what he tried to avoid
Dicking in sticking in the freaking dress
I know you feel the sun
See the Pastor on the corner
Preaching out on weaknesses
But can't we really know
Can we confess that we're a mess?
Please forgive us i saw the preachers of LA
So turned off, whatcha want me to say
I'm seeing Christian artist selling
Out main events
Same Christian artist turned Atheist
He knew he should've stopped
Doing God's music
But he couldn't cause it made him rich
I know you got a lady less
Man we've done, and did it all
We've been adulterers and pedophiles
I know you don't expect it from a man of God
Church be the shadiest
Time for you to let it slide
Pray to God we can all come and make amends
Maybe then you throw the bath before
They leave the baby in, yeah

We need to distinguish
Between being judgmental
And being judicious in our judgments
But the Book of Romans tells us
We are to judge ourselves
But I hear what people are saying
The church become too judgmental we have
Not made it a place
Where those who've gone wrong can
Return and be corrected
So the church needs to be a
Place of redemption and healing
But at the same time
It has to be a place where
We preach righteousness and judgment
But gracious in our reaching
Out to other people

Yeah, can't blame David Blatt
If the Cavaliers is playing back
Gotta take a look at the players
Let the coach for you fade to black
I know we got the glad flaws
Quit the criticizers that ain't far at all
'Cause we also done a lot of good
We've been it from the beginning
But it got ignored red cross is all us
Salvation Army man is all us
Alcoholics Anonymous is all us
Arms house for the elderly is all us
Homes for neglected children all us
The fights for civil liberties is all us
Healthcare and education
Church was the first orphanage
Man that's all us so why you wanna cross us
Why you got your fists balled up
Cause we got the cross-up?
I mean, we done wrong stuff
And I know you say it’s hard to trust my God
What about all the good
Things that involved us

'Cause we done been there doctor visit's
When the doctor said there was no optimism
We took time to pray for God's divine
Protection when you was locked in prison, oh
The church is your friend, we've
Been honest with you, just be honest with us
I know we got major problems
And some minor issues
That will disqualify us, still got
A lot of wisdom, oh

Telling us to judge not judge not or whatnot
Stop believing in the church, huh?
Just because we got some gross spots
But, you still call on the law
Even though you know corrupt cops
It's kind of the Devil staring right on
We just want you to trust God
We all got problems though
We just holding you accountable
Just because we love you, yeah
Not because we're perfect, no
Holding you accountable
It’s gotta be a right or wrong
Holding you accountable
Holding you accountable
Just because we love you, yeah
Just because we love you
Not because we want to
But because we love you
