PHARISEES - Whitewashed by Bro H

Verse 1 We learned the words, we learned the signs We learned which lines are crossed in time We shaped the truth to fit the frame And crowned ourselves in God’s own name Verse 2 We built no idols out of stone Just systems we could call our own We spoke for God, we set the tone And called the silence faith alone Pre-Chorus The law remained, the voice was gone The light stayed on, but truth moved on Chorus Whitewashed walls, polished skin Clean outside, rot within Every rule, every role Feeds the form, devours the soul Verse 3 We feared the loss of rank and seat More than lies beneath our feet When truth arrived, we shut the gate And sealed the door in righteous hate Chorus (repeat) Whitewashed walls, polished skin Clean outside, rot within Every word, every role Feeds the form, devours the soul Bridge The kingdom came without disguise It shattered thrones and blinded eyes Not every voice that speaks His Name Belongs to Him or walks His way Final Chorus Whitewashed walls, sacred lies Borrowed light behind our eyes When power rules where truth should dwell Religion builds a perfect shell Outro You strain the gnats And swallow camels
