Gracism

Charles J. Cossetti

[Intro]
That's what the problem is
I-it's churches full of people, who say
"I deserve to be with the Father, but you don't"
And I made up a term for it, this week
I think w-we should call it, "Gracism"
And the word, and the definition I'm making up, to define this exact problem
The same thing as racism, gracism
Except, that gracism is not about the color of your skin
It's about the color of your sins

[Verse 1]
Unh, I grew up with a daddy, as a pastor
I grew up with no daddy, I's a bastard
I fall asleep, with the Bible on my nightstand
I never read a page of the Bible, in my life, man

[Verse 2]
I can quote verses, 'til I'm blue in the face, me
I could quote The Blueprint so good, you would think I'm Jay-Z
I like Hillsong, I like Cypress Hill
I praise the most high, I get high as hell

[Verse 3]
I hold signs, on a street corner
Yeah, I sold dimes, on a street corner
I know where I'm goin', when I die
You keep it up, you might just end up goin' there tonight, right?

[Pre-Chorus]
I guess you wouldn't bit that apple, would you?
I guess you perfect, and you prob'ly can't relate, could you?
Too focused on the good Jew
To tell the rest us bad people
'Bout the good news

[Chorus]
Why you actin' like a gracist?
A gracist? A gracist?
I see the hate
It's written all over your faces
Your faces, your faces
Hey, let's face it
You're nothin' but a gracist

[Verse 4]
I'm not a racist, I'm not lookin' at ya' skin
I said gracist, 'cause all you do is throw the book at my sin
I'm just here to tell the truth, take it or leave it, sinner
Okay, let's talk about the truth, when they were eatin' dinner

[Verse 5]
When He broke the bread, remember what He said?
He said he'd cover all our sins, on the day he bled
He ain't say He'd cover only yours
So why you actin' like you washed away your sins?
For some holy chore, out here startin' holy wars?

[Verse 6]
Do you like when people shout at you with a megahorn?
'Til they strain their vocal cords?
Do you think that somehow, the sins you commit, are any different?
Than mine, and therefore, God's grace is insufficient? Woo!

[Verse 7]
Unh, boy, I really hope not
'Cause without God's grace, really, hope is all you got
He said, "Love your neighbor", He never said to judge 'em
We only called to be a witness, end of discussion

[Pre-Chorus]
I guess you wouldn't bit that apple, would you?
I guess you perfect, and you prob'ly can't relate, could you?
Too focused on the good you
To tell the rest us bad people, 'bout the good news

[Chorus]
Why you actin' like a gracist?
A gracist? A gracist?
I see the hate, it's written all over your faces
Your faces, your faces

[Bridge]
Hey, let's face it, you ain't nothin' but a gracist!
A gracist, a gracist!
I see the hate, it's written all over your faces!
Your faces, your faces!

[Chorus]
Hey, let's face it, you ain't nothin' but a gracist!
A gracist, a gracist
I see the hate, it's written all over your faces!
Your faces, your faces

[Outro]
Dear God, don't let me ever be a gracist
