Album: Image of Me - Single

God, You're so far
And that's hard
To make sense of the space between us
You gave your truth
But do I choose
What's more comfortable for me?

Cuz I just wanna be relevant
Getting into heaven for the hell of it
Doesn't that sound nice?

But am I the one to decide
What you should be like
And if it coincides
With everything I
Think and feel and want and need
Catered perfectly to my size
And my gage of wrong and right
Cuz I would much rather lead
And see a God who's made in the image of me

My arms are tired
Cause I keep trying
To level out grace and justice
You have control
And I don't
But that's not comfortable for me

Cuz I'm dripping with empathy
I won't even mention depravity
Doesn't that sound right?

But am I the one to decide
What you should be like
And if it coincides
With everything I
Think and feel and want and need
Catered perfectly to my size
And my gage of wrong and right
Cuz I would much rather lead
And see a God who's made in the image of me

Cuz wouldn't it be nice
If you walked like me
Talked like me
Thought like me
I think you and I should be
On the same team
Just trust me
Wouldn't it be nice
If you could love like me
Feel like me
Vote like me
I wish you and I would never disagree
Wouldn't that be so easy?

But am I the one to decide
What you should be like
And if it coincides
With everything I
Think and feel and want and need
Catered perfectly to my size
And my gage of wrong and right
Cuz I would much rather lead
And see a God who's made in the image of me

Why can't you be more like me?
