CLARITY Lyrics by J. Crum

VALIANT

2021

Lately I been questioning all my traditions
Like is my mindset just a byproduct of my religion
If I continue am I left without a pot to piss in
My politics ain’t lining up thats where i found the distance
I ball my fist up and proudly put it in the air
And then they tell me that I’m Marxist and should be aware
Ain't tryna step in your cathedral with my nappy hair
I seen your Jesus European his complexion fair
How does it feel to know his skin was probably black as mine
I know some pastors would be triggered if they heard that line
Like why you make it black and white well I experienced the blackest nights
Within the walls of your creation been fighting to find the light
Your blonde hair Jesus ain’t been no friend to me
Don’t pretend he ain’t the king of white supremacy
They manipulated scripture just to paint a tainted picture
Let me present you with some truth so we can tear down all your fixtures
I been searching for some clarity these days
I been learning every part every part
I’ve been building my dexterity these days
I’ve been earning every scar every scar
Son of a preacher man
Adopted son of God
All the connections
It’s seems
But why is me believing hard?
I say hallelujah
My brotha say inshallah
And frankly, I don’t blame him
And don’t have to wonder why
All them creflo dollars
Really wasn’t making cents
Mama paid Tithes paid on time
But broke her back
To pay the rent
Only paid Pops a Benji
That was sposed to be tha rent
Off a sermon that he preached
We drove back
Tha money’s spent
Insecurities resurface
When I talk about the church
Still searching for that clarity
Regardless of the hurt
Then I see these
Blatant racists
Screamin MAGA with they rifles
How you finna be racist?
Ain’t no white folks in the Bible?
Look at em triggered
Hating my skin
But I’m made in Gods image
So regardless
If 12 come Pullin on the trigger
Word to Tony Evans
My paradigm reconfigured
Bump your white pastor
When he say I’m just a nigga
That’s on white blessings
See I know I been delivered
I been searching for some clarity these days
I been learning every part every part
I’ve been building my dexterity these days
I’ve been earning every scar every scar
