Lyrics Safe Place - Guvna B
When
I
was
growing
up
church
was
a
safe
place
Didn't
really
understand
the
depths,
but
I'd
say
the
grace
Put
my
hands
in
the
air,
sing
the
songs
same
way
Made
me
feel
good
about
myself
in
a
strange
way
See,
I
never
really
doubted
God
ever
Tough
times
came
but
I
knew
they'd
get
better
I
used
to
blame
him
for
the
violence
and
the
wars
But
then
I
realized
that
we
do
that
to
ourselves,
it's
a
flaw
Still
had
my
cake
and
ate
it
too
Guess
I
was
away
with
you
I'd
go
against
the
bible,
but
when
I
needed
something
praise
him
too
When
I
was
struggling
I'd
look
for
help
in
heavenly
places
Then
forget
God
in
devilish
phases
Got
baptized
and
when
I
came
out
of
the
water
I
felt
like
a
new
man
I
recognized
the
trauma
that
I'd
been
through
From
the
day
I
was
born
to
the
days
I
Was
brought
up,
the
stories
working
together
I
just
gotta
trust
the
author
and
I
learnt
to
Try
to
be
a
man
of
virtue
Committed
to
the
church
'cause
I
knew
they'd
never
hurt
you
So
imagine
my
surprise
When
my
pastor
went
to
jail,
for
abusing
some
of
the
guys
I
was
devastated
'Cause
to
the
church
I
was
dedicated
It
was
meant
to
bring
some
light
into
this
world
of
hatred
But
we're
shady
and
need
to
go
back
to
basics
Some
friends
they
couldn't
face
it
And
left
the
faith
because
they
lost
patience
Started
struggling
And
I
couldn't
put
my
mind
to
rest
Reading
up
on
stories
about
some
of
the
Congregation
being
homeless
and
depressed
While
the
pastor's
buying
private
jets
Paid
by
the
very
people
tryna
fight
their
way
through
debt
How's
that
gonna
earn
respect
Friends
are
sending
tweets
and
texts
These
ain't
the
words
that
Jesus
said
And
ain't
the
reason
Jesus
bled
I'm
tryna
find
some
peace
in
bed
It's
kinda
like
Ephesians
says
I
pray
for
wisdom
and
knowledge
for
all
the
other
leaders
left
And
we
let
these
things
go
on
in
the
church,
Then
we
say
how
evil
those
people
are
out
in
the
world
You
guys,
that's
completely
opposite
of
what
God
desires
God
says
"You
know
what?
The
people
who
don't
know
me?
They're
gonna
do
what
they're
gonna
do.
And
you
need
to
love
them."
You
ne-you
need
to
go
after
them
Isn't
that
what
Jesus
did?
He
was
out
with
the
alcoholics,
with
the
prostitutes
With
the
murders,
with
the
thieves,
that's
who
Jesus
hung
with
Out
in
the
world
They
say
the
church
is
supposed
to
look
Differently,
God
says
"I
want
the
church
to
be
pure"
La-la-lately
I've
been
looking
at
my
own
life
All
my
weaknesses
and
my
struggles,
they
seem
to
hold
tight
I
call
myself
a
Christian,
go
figure
I
guess
looking
at
the
church
is
kinda
like
looking
in
the
mirror
'Cause
it
just
ain't
a
building,
it's
the
people
We're
the
ones
that
make
the
same
mistakes
again,
it
ain't
the
steeple
I'm
just,
wondering
if
I
played
my
part
in
the
evil
I
know
we've
all
got
different
sins
We're
fighting
demons
till
the
sequel
I'm
a
hypocrite
Made
some
mistakes
I
gotta
live
with
it
Praying
for
forgiveness
everyday,
there's
something
different,
it's
Playing
on
my
mind
'Cause
there
were
times
I
used
to
find
all
the
faults
In
someone
else
when
I
was
struggling
with
them
myself
I'm
gonna
change
my
ways
Looking
at
this
world,
I
think
there's
space
for
faith
Helps
me
on
my
wayward
days
But
it's
time
I
raised
the
stakes
You
know,
trynna
practice
what
I
preach
Be
a
man
of
my
word,
try
harder
to
become
a
better
person
In
the
meantime,
even
though
I
know
it's
not
perfect
I'm
faithful
to
the
church
'cause
I
feel
like
I'm
always
learning
And
you
can
hate
it
if
you
want
to
But
I
realized
the
other
day,
that
there's
hypocrites
in
the
clubs
too
And
people
still
go
back
to
party
So,
I
go
back
to
church
'cause
I
believe
in
what
God
has
started
He
brought
me
out
of
the
darkness
Gave
me
a
home
to
put
my
heart
in
Sticking
by
it
regardless
I'm
committed
when
times
are
hardest
'Cause
my
church
prayed
for
me
when
I
lost
my
dad
in
an
instant
The
church
gave
me
sight
when
I
didn't
have
any
vision
The
church
gave
me
songs
when
my
mind
was
stuck
in
a
prison
I
would
sing
'em
so
loud
and
feel
freedom
enter
my
system
I
see
my
church
feed
the
homeless
and
give
them
service
I've
seen
'em
take
the
kids
off
the
street
and
give
'em
purpose
I've
seen
'em
give
a
home
to
the
nations
so
they
can
worship
I've
seen
the
church
see
past
my
flaws,
I'm
undeserving
There's
many
pros
but
they're
many
flaws
The
good,
the
bad,
the
ugly
and
I'm
ready
for
it
And
everybody
disses
it
Till
they
got
a
funeral
A
wedding
or
a
christening
they
need
a
venue
for
There's
cons
but
there's
pros
too
The
good,
the
bad,
the
ugly,
that's
the
whole
truth
The
church
isn't
the
place
that
I
just
go
to
It's
the
family
I
belong
to
(Belong
to)
