ApologetiX - Scripture lyrics

Parody of "Picture" by Kid Rock & Sheryl Crow Livin' my life like there's no hell In the drawer there's a Bible at the hotel I can see it's some kind of pre-planned place Been fool enough to go play it risky Wish I thought the Good Lord would miss me Lord, I wonder what You meant by "saved by grace" I put Your scripture away, stopped tryin' to find the way I can't look for truth while I'm lyin' -- that's the worst I put Your scripture away, I know that crime don't pay I can't look at truth now I'm cryin' -- yes, it hurts I called you last night in the hotel Everyone goes through their slow spells But your half-started Bible has something you just can't deny It's been written for you for a long time You just have to start it and keep tryin' That ain't hard if you can read and write I put the scriptures in place, I wrote the words within I left the Book for you so you'd find it, and you did Don't put My scriptures away -- I don't care where you've been I said the Book is true, why not try it? Let me in! I saw you just today with it open It was the strangest thing how it happened Since You called, God, my world's been startin' to change (Since you called God, your world's been startin' to change) I decided to read the Bible today The quotes started jumpin' off the page When they read it in church I was often sleeping away I've thought about you for a long time It seems as if You read my mind (It seems as if you read My mind) That's because the Scriptures are livin', like they say I finally picked up today (I'm glad you picked up today) God's Word and changed my ways (My Word and changed your ways) I just called Your name I want to come back home (I just called your name I want you to come back home) I just called Your name I want to come back home (I just called your name I want you to come back home)
