VERSE 1
Deconstructed these walls and I found a business
Where the company line was the only way to get paid
We built a church on certainty that fears everything against it
Where the refugee suffers and the white man has it made
CHORUS
I won’t do it anymore it’s taken me too long to recover
I’ll go feed the sick and poor and try to help the world to recover
VERSE 2
I sat myself in your pews every single week
And I gave you my money so that you would tell mе what to think
And I learned from a book that you had taken thе heart out of
And that’s how I learned to make exclusion look like love
CHORUS
I won’t do it anymore it’s taken me too long to recover
I’ll go feed the sick and poor and try to help the world to recover
BRIDGE
So come, come as you are
Take up your cross, use it to build a wall
And reach across the aisle
And fire your guns
So you can keep them
And love, love how you want, if we approve
And you’ll be undefiled
So come, accept our gift
Salvation from sinners
CHORUS
I won’t do it anymore it’s taken me too long to recover
I’ll go feed the sick and poor and try to help the world to recover
I won’t do it anymore it’s taken me too long to recover
I’ll go feed the sick and poor and try to help the world to recover
VERSE 3
Gonna take a while to wade through the fear and the hurt
But I think there’s a way for us to love and heal the world
