Connor McGee - People Like Me Lyrics

The bible belt don't fit me very well
Since I lost the weight of your opinions
If you think that I'm destined for hell
You didn't understand what was written

You say that your god don't make mistakes
Then try to pray me out of existence
If you can't bring yourself to even serve me cake
Then to you I'm gonna say good riddance

You can put me on a cross
You can tell me that I'm lost
You can judge the things I do
But to myself I will be true
And people like me deserve better than people like you

If you stone me 'til I'm flat on the ground
I'll do the same thing your savior did
What goes around, it comes back around
You'd best be sure I will rise again

And if I'm gonna burn, I guess I'll wait my turn
Behind the rich and the pharisees
Won't be scared when my judgment's adjourned
Cause I accept who I was always born to be

You can put me on a cross
You can tell me that I'm lost
You can judge the things I do
But to myself I will be true
And people like me deserve better than people like you

Too many people lose their lives
Cause you're promoting violence
All the hate, the lies, and the fights
To you there ain't no consequence
Making gentle souls feel so alone
How could that ever feel right?
Well it ain't gonna get you gold
Once you reach the afterlife

You can put me on a cross
You can tell me that I'm lost
You can judge the things I do
But to myself I will be true
And people like me deserve better than people like you
