WHEN I WALK INTO THE STRUCTURE

I DO MYSELF A FAVOR

AND I BLESS MYSELF

YES, EVERY HEAD MUST BOW DOWN

AND EVERY TONGUE CONFESS

AND I DON'T CARE HOW YOU FOUND OUT

THIS IS ONLY A TEST, SO TEST YOURSELF

I SEE THE WAY THAT YOU'RE LOOKING DOWN

TRIPPING THROUGH LIFE AS YOU FUMBLE AROUND

QUICK CHECK, RESPECT, NOBODY AROUND

SO REACH UNDER YOUR DRESS AND CARESS YOURSELF

YEAH, NOW LISTEN

PEOPLE SAY, "I NEED GOD ON COMMAND, GOD ON DEMAND"

IF GOD'S TOO BUSY, THEN I'LL BLESS MYSELF

ALL THESE PEOPLE SAYING, "CALL YOUR OWN SHOTS"

THEY'RE NOT ROBOTS, THEY WANT NO ROADBLOCKS

THEY ARE A TEAM UNTO THEMSELF, THEY SAY

"I DON'T ANSWER TO ANYBODY BUT MYSELF!"

WHOSE FAULT IS IT NOW? WHO DO YOU BLAME NOW?

YOU GONNA COP TO THAT?

IF YOU'RE A COP, THEN ARREST YOURSELF

IF YOU'RE TRYING TO PROVOKE YOURSELF, THEN

YOU'RE GONNA NEED TO INVOKE YOURSELF THEN

A PRAYER SPOKEN FROM THE NEWLY AWOKEN SAYS

"MUST WE ALWAYS DISTRESS OURSELVES?"

YOU'LL SAY THIS, YOU'LL, YOU'LL SING THIS

"WHERE DID ALL THE TIME GO?"

"WHERE DID ALL THE LOVE GO?"

"I HUNG ONTO MY EGO, BUT NOW?"

I JUST WANT TO DROWN MYSELF

THEY SAY TRUST NO ONE

NOT EVEN YOURSELF

SO NOW I CAN'T EVEN TRUST MYSELF?

DAMN

WE ALWAYS HURT THE ONES WE LOVE

BUT DON'T WE ALSO HAVE TO LOVE OURSELVES?

ARE YOU FEELING BLESSED?

ARE YOU FEELING BLESSED?

NO? THEN BLESS YOURSELF
