TrueMan Show - Flame, Phil J.

I voted pro life

I saluted to the flag

I listen to all your preachers, yea

Bring them Christian morals back

When they go left

You know we go right

At first I couldn’t see your lies

You said we equally in Christ

'Til it’s a black man’s life (on the line) then the true man shows

To the Truman show

Welcome to the TrueMan show, aye

To the TrueMan show

Welcome to the Truman show, aye

Everybody saying peace peace

Black man killed in the streets

Black woman killed in her sleep

Now apartheid Palestine Middle East

And even while I’m sitting in the pews

Preacher keeps talking about looting

Had a lot to say about that but not about police shootings

Why is the U.S. flag in the foyer

While we keep talkin' bout Fourth of July

Who told us we should be single issue voters for the POTUS need to open our eyes

Why is the Christian position Republican

Religious liberty prioritized

Whatever happened to waving your rights

Sacrifice and all that laying down lives

They told us to follow the rules

That’s how we fell for the ruse

But then I start catching the cues

Started to follow the clues

Is Sunday morning like a lullaby

When we sleep they preach another guy

Like a caterpillar turns to butterfly

They turn as callous then they customize

I voted pro life

I saluted to the flag

I listen to all your preachers, yea

Bring them Christian morals back

When they go left

You know we go right

At first I couldn’t see your lies

You said we equally in Christ

'Til it’s a black man’s life (on the line) then the true man shows

To the Truman show

Welcome to the TrueMan show, aye

To the TrueMan show

Welcome to the Truman show, aye

I knew we had differences

I never assumed that the church was flawless

But this one was different

They recorded the lynching

All of us saw it

I thought the church would rise

Confronting racism this time

To rewrite the history lines

That Christians was getting it right this time

But what we do

Run to our tribe

Tell them to evangelize

Tell them to come and pray

While police out here hunting they prey

And people out losing lives

I finally see it that nationalism is posing as if it is one in the same

They calling it Christian but really it’s different

A different religion that’s using the name

It’s really American

This is the heritage seminaries are not seeming to train

These future ambassadors sending our pastors under prepared and they’re being

ordained

If you’re looking for me

I’mma be with the least of these

Cause that’s what my Jesus sees

Who is my neighbor the person that’s begging to breathe

I voted pro life

I saluted to the flag

I listen to all your preachers, yea

Bring them Christian morals back

When they go left

You know we go right

At first I couldn’t see your lies

You said we equally in Christ

'Til it’s a black man’s life (on the line) then the true man shows

To the Truman show

Welcome to the TrueMan show, aye

To the TrueMan show

Welcome to the Truman show, aye
