Idol Lyrics

I need you, I mean I love you, I got to have you, there is no other, can't live without

You

You the bread to my butter, the beach for my summer, matter of fact, you the reason

I stutter

Whenever I'm around you, I praise the day I found you

Actually, I worship the ground you walk on, so walk it out, do your dance, get your wiggle

Twerk and wobble on

You perfect baby, I don't think you can do no wrong

You said you'd never leave, and so in your word I believe

Look here, I'd give my life for you, I'd fight for you, stop living trite for you, this my

Haiku girl, I'd die for you

What else you want me to do

I'd change for you, you don't want me to

Well then I'd stay the same for you

You need some money

Well then I'll work overtime for you

Wait, what

I work too much

Well then I'll take vacation time for you

You don't, you don't like this shirt

Well then I'll put on one that's blue

You don't like my friends

Well then I'll tell them I can only hang with you

Really

You don't like going to church

Alright, well we can get there right before it ends

Anything for you

You want me to prove my love, right

Well I guess I could have sex with you

You think I study too much

Well I suppose I could quit school

For you

You want me to move

It's cool, it's cool, anything for you

I don't know who said it but I actually would walk 10,000 miles for you

I'm your puppet, without strings I'd do exactly what you want me to do

You don't think you got it that bad, huh

Well how do you feel about the person you kiss

One singer puts it like this

Girl, I put you first now

You made me, helped mold me, turned me into a man

Come on now

Holy Ghost help him understand that God comes first and that's who made him a man

Another puts it like this

You're my everything and everything is you

You're my everything and everything is you

Now in conclusion let me tell you why this most certainly isn't true

We suffer from a slight case of idolatry, absence and apology with a side of atrocity

Allow me to help you see

There's an empty spot inside all of us reserved for God

However, we fill it with other things and make them our gods

See, the word idolatry comes from the Greek word ideolateria

And besides my pronunciation, what's even scarier is that it's a compound of two words

Image or figure and worship

Worshiping a figure

Nah, still don't think you got it in you

Well, the dictionary defines idolatry as not only the religious worship of idols, but also

Excessive or blind admiration, reverence or devotion

Not just a statue that looks like Satan

And our music helps set that in motion

Don't see the connection

That's all right

Be patient and ask yourself, where is my devotion

Synonyms include glorification, homage, worship and praise

So examine your next phrase

False gods and goddesses are esteemed in affection and regarded with delight

We call it true love, but we couldn't be any further from right

Golden calves and Buddha ain't the only things getting worshipped tonight

Any person regarded with blind admiration is an idol

From the dictionary to the Bible, romantic fantasies foster false conceptions and fallacies

Then spread like disease

Tell me, do you think the Lord is pleased

His word says, and I quote, all the gods of the people are idols, but the Lord made the

Heavens

End quote

Check your Bibles

A god is what controls you

Or in other words, the reason behind doing what you do

Will change for everybody

But the one true living God, and I don't need a love song to prove that's true

King Asa took courage and put away the idols

It takes courage to recognize we've been worshipping idols

Furthermore, those that worship the idols provoke the God's wrath

But he is God alone

That means one, so you do the math

He deserves all the glory, not just half

He said, I am the Lord, your God, turn ye not unto idols

And yet we have

Nevertheless, a proper perspective and priorities is what needs to be had

Likewise, don't be sad if you can see your run-ins with idolatry temporarily

Repent and move forward, for this is my new philosophy and thesis

No one should be your everything except Jesus

And there's no one, no one, no matter what them singers say, who's gonna love you like

Jesus

Never leave you like Jesus

I already died and rose again for you like Jesus

Is worthy to be praised but Jesus

And needless to say, your mate ain't Jesus

So the next time you worship or hear one of them songs, just think about Jesus, cause

That's where all worship belongs
