Mama's getting nervous
'Cause I haven't been to church here in a while
Honestly, I get it, probably feel the same if it was my child
I don't know if it's me or them
But, God, I can't breathe, this stress will k** me
Wish I'd never witnessed the corruption on the inside
Wish I'd never witnessed the corruption on the inside
I don't wanna be jaded
But I'm baring wounds from the church of celebrity
(Jaded, jaded, jaded, jaded, jaded)
I don't wanna be jaded
But I think I'm lost and not who I'm meant to be
(Jaded, jaded, jaded, jaded, jaded)
Another story broke about abuse and, God, I'm feeling crushed
Decades later, pastors richer, famous wallow, women hushed
I don't know if it's me or them
But, God, I can't breathe, this stress will k** me
I know I love justice but remember you're the only judge
I don't wanna be jaded
But I'm baring wounds from the church of celebrity
(Jaded, jaded, jaded, jaded, jaded)
I don't wanna be jaded
But I think I'm lost and not who I'm meant to be
(Jaded, jaded, jaded, jaded, jaded)
Pain and grief are honest friends we need but don't want
I wish nothing bothered me and I could move on
What if we're lost?
Why is it my business if our system's held up by our silent victims?
