M.I.A. - AMEN lyrics
[M.I.A. - AMEN lyrics]
Ooh, ah, ooh
Ooh, ah, ooh, ye-ye-yeah!
Ooh, ah, ooh
Blazers blazers!
If I talk too much, I say less
I'll give you my word, I'd pay less
If I forget about you, I'm careless
When I got you by my side, I'm fearless
When I offer you flowers like a florist
I know my hands not the purest
I'm new to this, not a tourist
For the judgment I don't need no jurist
If you got the key, show me where the door is
And I'm going through something, hope you notice
You might not see it on the surface
But I'm tryna live my life with a purpose (Blazers blazers!)
Om amen, born again
My body is my temple, my mind I keep it zen
Om amen, here we go again
I'm praying for my sins, and I won't cheat again (Blazers blazers!)
These modern day prophets
Ain't no matter what they promise
I been the richest and the poorest
Here living in this concrete forest
I know what it is to have success
And it ain't all about the ways that I can flex
And I try to live my life with no stress
Living in the light that's my address (Blazers blazers!)
If you got the key, show me where the door is
And I'm going through something, hope you notice
You might not see it on the surface
But I'm tryna live my life with a purpose (Blazers blazers!)
Om amen, born again
My body is my temple, my mind I keep it zen
Om amen, here we go again
I'm praying for my sins, I hope we meet again (Blazers blazers!)
They say we're lustful creatures
And I'm hunting God's out for his gracious
Can you forgive me like Jesus?
If I'm feeling insecure or jealous
In my baggy jeans and a headdress
On my knees begging as I confess
Is Satan sending things to tempt us?
Is the heat always relentless?
If you got the key, show me where the door is
And I'm going through something, do you notice?
You might not see it on the surface
But I'm tryna live my life with a purpose
Om amen, born again
My body is my temple, my mind I keep it zen
Om amen, here we go again
I'm praying for my sins, I hope we meet again
Ooh, ah, ooh
Ooh, ah, ooh, ye-ye-yeah!
Ooh, ah, ooh, ye-ye-yeah!
Ooh, ah, ooh, ye-ye-yeah!
Ooh, ah, ooh
Blazers blazers!
If I talk too much, I say less
I'll give you my word, I'd pay less
If I forget about you, I'm careless
When I got you by my side, I'm fearless
When I offer you flowers like a florist

I'm new to this, not a tourist
For the judgment I don't need no jurist
If you got the key, show me where the door is
And I'm going through something, hope you notice
You might not see it on the surface
But I'm tryna live my life with a purpose (Blazers blazers!)
