I Deserve the Praise Lyrics

Is it true that we are living in the last day
Or is everyone just living out a chronic haze
Are you living by another's deceptive ways
Your leaders brought you lambs to the wrong place to graze

How did things become this way
We've listened to corrupted leaders day by day
Leaving us with nothing to say
As we would rather play than pray

Self-indulgence, me me me
I am living my best life now you see
Living life in a blinded state
I look into the mirror and see that I am great

I need your praise just to be
Everything is all about
Me me me

Do you believe the life that I perpetuate
You only see one side on my social media page
We've become truly hollow, shallow and fake
That's why you're depressed and full of angst and disdain

We can turn back to him and he will reign
Open our hearts to him and live again

We are set on a course ripe for destruction
And of course that only brings hell and pain
Repentance will bring forth change
Things do not have to stay this way

So is it true that we are living in the last day
Or is everyone just living out a chronic haze
Are you living by another's deceptive ways
Your leaders brought you lambs to the wrong place to graze

And for this the false prophets will pay
When God is met on judgement day
They will answer for what they say
For they have lead the flock astray

Chasing the doctrines of demons
Turning the flock into heathens

I am the center of my universe
Everything revolves around me
I gotta make sure I'm always first
Ignoring anyone who disagrees

Self-idolatry is what I crave
I can't help it, but I want all the praise
I'll never let anyone take the spotlight away
My self-idolatry is here to stay
And you will listen to every single word I say
You are never at peace
You run around in a mouse wheel every day

Listening to exactly what I say
Give to me what I crave
I deserve the praise
Give to me what I need
I deserve the praise

Chasing the doctrines of demons
Turning the flock into heathens
Don't you know he can redeem them
And he will count you as part of the leaven

False prophet you shall bow down for leading them astray
It's God's mercy that you live another day
It seems you always walk away unscathed
But not on judgement day

You'll answer for everyone you've led astray!
