Lyrics
Yeah I wrote this song
And I pray that you listen to all the words
Cause I feel like at some point in everybody's life
We feel like this...
Lord I'm split in two
Part of me loves the world
And the other loves You
So what do I do
I wanna be saved
But I gotta stay cool too
And no I'm not a fool
I know eventually I'm gonna have to choose
And really I don't wanna lose
My ticket into heaven
And a chance to be used by You
And if it's God that I'm after
I just can't serve two masters
And before something happens
I gotta turn it all around
Because I know
I can't just have my cake and eat it too
Cause it's real easy to stay on the fence and still do You
And it'd be cool if we could love the Lord and still go do our thing
But see it doesn't work like that
You gotta be white or black
Oh ah
Lord I've realized
when it comes to sin
You just don't compromise
See it's a matter of death and life
Be weak and do wrong
Or be strong and do right
And I don't wanna keep going to church
Singing all about how much You're worth
And then continue doin my dirt
Living as if I didn't care if You're hurt
Cause if it's God that I'm after
I just can't serve two masters
And before something happens
I gotta turn it all around
Because I know
I can't just have my cake and eat it too
Cause it's real easy to stay on the fence and still do You
And it'd be cool if we could love the Lord and still go do our thing
But see it doesn't work like that
You gotta be white or black eh yeah
Lord I really need you to help me
Get it together yeh
Saints we really gotta
Get it together
Ooh yeah eh ey
And if it's God that I'm after
I just can't serve two masters
And before something happens
I gotta turn it all around
Because I know
I can't just have my cake and eat it too yeah
Cause it's really easy to stay on the fence and still do you
And it'd be cool if we could love the Lord and still go do our thing
But see it don't work like that
You gotta be white or black
No it don't work like that
You gotta be white or black yeah
No gray
No shades of gray
No no no no no no no no no no ah
It don't work like that
No gray, no no
