Natalie Lauren, Jackie Hill Perry - Fall Away lyrics

I don't know if you fell or
If you was ever standing
But from my vantage it's like
A picture that's candid
Caught off guard by the bandit who's
Stealing Christians I ran with
This race ain't for the swift yet
It's tailored for the abandoned
This pain has made me ramble
It's like you gamble with life
Roll seven then dismantle the dice
Bet on heaven while you dance with the price
I read the Scriptures with you
You even handled it right
Saw the Christ in every text
Said exegetical sight
You knew the devil was a liar
What happened to you?
I seen him on your snapchat
You act like you happy, is you?
Sure you don't remember 'bout the fire
I'm glad to get you back
All them sermons that you preached
About Adam in you i guess them genetics sent
You the wrong message the wrong medic
You sick and the fix ingrown heaven
You stole leaven and mixed it
With bricks and stone
As addicting it gets harder to love truth
I get it, I love you and this what love do

Both feet off the ground now
You far away, you falling lights faded out
It's dark but never too far from him
Come back to your first love
Come back to your first love
Come back to your first love

I don't know if you fell or
If you was ever standing
But from my vantage I know you ain't plan it
This world ain't never random
It's mad strategic
You stopped eating what you really needed
Was glad to leave it
Was mad at me when I kept it honest
Said your conscience was precious
Let you let the vomit etch and sketch
Away what you knew would profit
You left the promise, I promise it's true
I know that blindness seems
Like knowledge to you
Intelligence with hell in it
Inhaling powers you knew
Rebellion better that's a lie from the bottom
Better yet the devil never tells a
Lie that he ain't swallow
How come you wallowed his name?
You switched in places with the
God who was caine
And bottled the shame that you carried
Buried body, he raised you
Gotta be crazy cause you don't believe him
You don't believe him, you don't believe him
This life you leading
It's Christ you leaving
Despite the grief in your heart of stone
He can roll it back
I remember when you told me that
You told me that

Both feet off the ground now
You far away, you falling lights faded out
It's dark but never too far from him
Come back to your first love
Come back to your first love
Come back to your first love
