Gavels discusses the mindset of Christians that choose to judge and overlook their own flaws. Based on Matthew 7:5.
Lyrics
Verse 1
As I take look around the globe
I see a lot of people slippin’
‘think about that Bishop Eddie long, and why the heck they tot him in position?
We diss and we nod when we fix our eyes on the sins of the church
And we spend our time, Trying to rip them apart just to mend our hurt
But if we sure that the church is a plant then we first look at men ’cause they stem from dirt
And we born with the pain, so we always will walk with a “Cain” like we kin to the curse
But the flaws in the veins and the hearts of the Saints, are rich,
but they’ll pour from our pores ’till were changed
And sick,
is just all that we are though we’re saved we’re not called to regard but depart from the
wisdom of earth
We swallow grace and forgiveness without a Taste of his tenderness
Tummies turning
tape wormin’
no toleration for sinners
we see the log in our vision but steady watching the specks on the spectacles of the brethren, like there’s no God in the heavens so
Ain’t no problem with telling folk
That they gotta repent and grow
Just acknowledge you’re skeletal
Never dies if you’re unexposed
Chorus
Lord have mercy on us
Sin is drippin’ off us
While we pointing fingers
Right now all I know is
Gavels down
Down oooooh
Gavels
Gavels down down ooooh
We hate to be judged but we want the robe
And we love to boast
Everything look perfect
Till they open up the curtains
Verse 2
In our eyes we are wise but to God we are fools
On the road to “de mask us” all we are blinded to prove
That this life is a test and He blocks our sight for the text
We say our throats carry life but they’re tombs just disguised as a womb I’m tired of it
we hate to be judged but we want the robe
We claiming freedom but we hug the rope
We place our feet up and hope these pagans see us as Jesus and we don’t come close
court is in session
you’re using your prudence,
Murder’s the charge
You prosecuting shooters
They Take the gun to the lab to just prove who had used it
Then Everybody gets convicted it including the jury
