Optical Illusion - Theory Hazit

Mama said, «Keep lookin' up»

She said, «Ain't nobody perfect, just look at us»

But don’t let that be your excuse

If you can’t find Him in the picture, fix your view"

Sunday mornings ain’t the same

I threw a pity party and everybody came

Now I’m sitting in the back, tryna play it cool

Cause people’ll see me if I sit in the front pew

I hope the pastor don’t notice me

I was an active member he would oversee

Old friends pretend we still friends

Askin' me 'bout my daughter and ignoring my sins

Before the sermon begins, I see some of them avoiding me

To them I’m not approachable, to me they are annoying

Awkward as hello, hello, is Christ here?

Light convos cause we ain’t spoke in lightyears

Fake smiles so I laugh, ain’t nothing funny

If this were a movie, this would be my dark comedy

Funny how your views change

After one bad decision is made

Like «Look, he ain’t living right

Something with him ain’t sitting right»

No matter my focal point, I’m seen in a different light

I thought we all fell short of His glory

But everything’s against me, nobody’s for me

(Check this out)

We don’t see eye-to-eye

Good, cause I ain’t tryna see you cry

A cold heart, you throw darts at old scars

Act dumb when you hear my name, but claim that you know God

I mean, clearly you won’t understand, so you judge

You forgot what a husband does, so I forgot what a husband was

It’s sad, but through it all I maintain a smile

And you leave communication up to me and my child

Calling me manipulative cause my vocabulary spill is ill

And you like avoiding the real

Like nothing hurt, somewhere I left lonely

With a plan to rise up like «Look at his testimony!»

I’m not shifting the blame, this is all my fault

An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind, ya’ll

Every closed eye ain’t sleeping

And every open eye ain’t seeing, believe it
