Hypocrisy

Overly practicing hypocrisy
Contradicting what you preach
Labeling yourself a Christian
But going against all that you teach
Let’s discuss religious rules
Bending them to work for you
Yesterday you were self righteous
But today you seem confused
From the scriptures you profess
To the words you manifest
Although you claim your way is right
You’re still a sinner nonetheless
You’re only saved because of grace
Yet you try to win the race
When did conviction become a game
False examples and saving face
Are you hiding behind belief
Keep it real and spare the grief
Cause I’ll argue all your flaws
And leave you craving for relief
Are you sure hell’s not your home
With all the nonsense you condone
You tried your best to convince me
I know your thoughts when you’re alone
Heavenly father where is my blessing
Are those the words that you’re confessing
Where is all your religious faith
Once the devil gets to testing
But when I go against the grain
You’re quick to judge and rearrange
Fast in condemning my train of thought
Arbitrating in His name
How dare you attack my way of living
When your heart is unforgiving
Imposing artificial beliefs
Did you forget that’s also sinning?
But since you worship that doesn’t apply
You break the rules then justify
You sin first then ask for mercy
I guess the measures don’t apply
Does that give you an open pass?
And now you think you’re free at last
Go to church just for routine
Even Jesus has to laugh
The most repulsive group of topics
Religion, race and politics
I’ll just agree to disagree
And stay away from hypocrites!
