  • Oh Jerusalem yeah, oh Jerusalem, oh Jerusalem, oh Jerusalem...

    Realizing that there's no place else to go
    And there's nobody I know who can help me
    Text book solutions are so improbable
    Cuz everybody else is just as empty
    Naked as the day that I was born, I tried to hide
    ...behind education and philosophy
    Hopeless explanation to describe a situation
    I can't see because the world's on top of me
    Oh wretched man that I am, who will deliver me
    From the body of this death
    Freeing me from dust, and the superficial trust
    Of an enemy that seeks to take my breath
    Failing to connect, cuz I'm morally defect
    By reason of the God inside my head
    Causing me to see, only what pertains to me
    Believing I'm alive when I'm still dead
    Limited to earth, unable to find out my worth
    Cuz I... can't see past my own vanity
    If I'm not included, then I just have to remove it
    From my mind because it has to be in sanity
    Oh wretched man that I am, who will deliver me
    From the body of this death
    Can I even factor, that I've only been an actor
    In this staged interpretation of this day
    Focused on the shadow, with my back turned to the light
    Too intelligent to see it's me in the way
    What a paradox, having God trapped in a box
    All this time professing to be spiritual
    Naturally pretending, that I'm actually defending
    God (?) don't need material

    Oh Jerusalem, wash thy heart from wickedness
    That thou may be saved from thy deception
    How long, shall thy face those lies within thee
    Oh Jerusalem, keeping thee from perfection

    Submit to truth, leave the deception of thy youth
    So we could walk in the council of authority
    Forget the proof, our generation so aloof
    Only follow in the steps of the majority
    Trust in the Lord, with all thy heart
    And lay not to thine, oh an understanding in all thy ways
    Acknowledge Him, and He shall correct our paths
    Be (?) you can follow him
    We judge and condemn, just as ignorant as them
    Who religion tells us that we should ignore
    Perpetrating we're in covenant with Him
    Exposed by the very things that we adore
    We grin and shake hands, then lay ambush for the man
    Who has a different point of view then us
    Infuriated cuz he doesn't understand
    Bringing up those things we don't want to discuss
    Why still do evil, we don't know how to do good
    Walking on in darkness running from the light, ey
    Led to believe, because we live in neighborhoods
    Telling us what's going on will be alright
    Oh so repressed, so convinced that I was blessed
    When I played with my game of Monopoly
    Oh to suggest, that my life is still a mess
    Who reveal the pride I'm hiding is what's stopping me

    Oh Jerusalem, wash thy heart from wickedness
    That thou may be saved from thy deception
    How long, shall thy face those lies within thee
    Oh Jerusalem keeping them from perfection

    Abide in me and I in you, as the branch cannot bare
    ...fruit of itself except in the vine
    I am the vine, ye are the branches, He's in live in me
    And I in him, the same bring forth much fruit
    Without me, you can do nothing
    Oh Jerusalem, you're traditions have deceived you
    I've chosen you, you haven't chosen me
    Do whatsoever, you asking my name he may give to you
    But in vain they call my name
    teaching doctrines just the same
    Justified among themselves
    But God know with the heart, what man esteemed as smart
    Is an abomination to Emmanuel
    Just repent, turn from selfish motivation
    So iniquity will not cause your demise
    Make you a new heart and a new spirit for why would he die
    Oh Jerusalem, please tell me why
    I have no pleasure in the death of him to die
    Says the Lord God where forth turn yourselves and live
    It's not the talkers, but the walkers and his word
    Are the only ones the Father will forgive

    Oh Jerusalem, wash thy heart from wickedness
    That thou may be saved from thy deception
    How long, shall thy face those lies within thee
    Oh Jerusalem, providing you no protection

    Oh Jerusalem...
