Corey Taylor
I’m Not Jesus
[Verse 1]
Dirty little secret
Dirty little lies
Say your prayers and comb your hair
Save your soul tonight
Drift among the faithful
Bury your desires
Aberrations fill your head
You need a place to hide and I am
[Pre-Chorus]
Do you remember me?
And the kid I used to be?
Do you remember me?
[Chorus]
When your world comes crashing down
I want to be there (Your god ain't looking down on me)
I'm not Jesus, Jesus wasn't there
You confess it all away
But it don't mean shit to me (Your god ain't looking down on me)
I'm not Jesus, I will not forgive
[Post-Chorus]
No, I won't
No, I won't
[Verse 2]
I thought you were a good man
I thought you talked to God
You Hippocratic, messianic
Child-abusing turned satanic
[Pre-Chorus]
Do you remember me?
Do you remember me?
And the kid I used to be?
Do you remember?
Do you remember?
[Chorus]
When your whole world comes undone
Let me be the one to say (Your god ain't looking down on me)
"I'm not Jesus, you can't run away"
And the innocence you spoiled
Found a way to live (Your god ain't looking down on me)
I'm not Jesus, I will not forgive
[Bridge]
I will not forgive
I won't, whatever you wanted
I will not forgive
I won't be whatever you wanted
[Pre-Chorus]
Do you remember me?
And the kid I used to be?
Not the same as I used to be
Oh, do you remember my name?
[Chorus/Outro]
When your world comes crashing down
I want to be there (Your god ain't looking down on me)
I'm not Jesus, Jesus wasn't there
You confess it all away
But it don't mean shit to me (Your god ain't looking down on me)
I'm not Jesus, I will not
I'm not Jesus, I will not forgive
Oh, I will not forgive, yeah yeah
No, I will not forgive
