[Verse 1]
I used to chop verses in the church and I cued it
In the background soundboard saw through it
If God set the levels it shouldn't be hard to move it
He can check the mic himself, I dare him to fucking (do it)
And I never heard the story of the ones that went away
Always allegory when in truth I had to light the way (do it) myself
Used to hate myself, congratulations you played yourself
Out of mental health, and living itself (do it)
Speak for yourself, your marriage not a testimony
Don't believe the church is a bride, but she owe me alimony (do it)
I'm a pony up and stick a feather in your ceremony
Wearing weddings out, I call it Yankee Doodle matrimony (do it)
And I'm only getting started, my tongue is fire
Fighting gaslighting leaders, like your ways are not higher (do it)
I don't need a choir to bring down the entire empire
You threw the gasoline I'm just spitting matches through the wire (do it)
I'm just trying to break'em free, make'em see
The refrains and mental chains of slavery, I disagree (do it)
With any preacher teaching our own defeat, I repeat
I don't need a church to walk in victory, I'm complete
[Chorus]
And everybody sing, and everybody sing (do it, do it)
Please, pull some strings for me
And everybody sing, and everybody sing (do it, for me)
Please, pull some strings for me
And everybody sing, and everybody sing (do it, do it)
Please, pull some strings for me
But you don't have to crown a king and keep singing (do it for me)
[Verse 2]
(Do it!) The sound of white privilege is a city on a Hillsong (Do-Do it!)
With no weapons forming against you, y'all move along (Do-Do it!)
The sight of the light has blinded you from seeing wrong (Do-Do it!)
Overlooking others that suffer while singing "God is strong"
(do it) He is good when you got nothing, yeah I know the deal
And he is hood when you are stunting and you wanna steal (do it)
I call him two-face but Trinity G has more appeal
For the holy ghostface killer of the unhealed (do it)
The scales never really fell from your eyes
And your soul didn't make bail, the jail was a lie (do it)
And they had me tracing trails like the truth was a prize
Didn't find it in my youth, or a group, surprise (do it)
Put your hands up, its a hold-up
If it's only heaven or hell, it's not love, its extortion (do it)
Tell it like it is with no message distortion
The Passover plague was a drive-by abortion (do it)
Y'all can't even get your story straight on what you hate
Is it sex, women and wine or just today? What you think? (do it)
You been cherry-picking verses on your plate, just for bait
So I am dabbing on your grave to desecrate and feeling great
[Chorus]
And everybody sing, and everybody sing (do it, do it)
Please, pull some strings for me
And everybody sing, and everybody sing (do it, for me)
Please, pull some strings for me
And everybody sing, and everybody sing (do it, do it)
Please, pull some strings for me
But you don't have to crown a king and keep singing (do it for me)
[Verse 3]
(Do it) I was never savvy (D-do) so I'll gladly point it out
(Do it) If everybody call him daddy, (D-do) he got issues pulling out
(Do it) Your purse, but always say (D-do) the universe reimburse
(Do it) Unless you feeling worse, then put the first in reverse, you're cursed
(Do it) I might as well put (D-do)the beat up in a hearse
(Do it) Make it born again (D-do) like it transcend the weekend and it hurt
(Do it) Bass slapping every (Do it) bible in the church with this verse
(Do it) Praying (Do) that (Do) you (Do) deconvert (Do), it gets worse, I disperse
All the reasons heathens like me had to leave (Do it)
Its more than just a season of secrets and heresy (Do it)
I know they think that I am the one thats being deceived (Do it)
But I'm not the one hiding the pedo-priests up my sleeve (Do it)
I'm not the one giving a teen low self esteem (Do it)
(Do it) I'm not the one that wouldn't let some people on their team (Do it)
Listen to me when I say that I was like you and believed(Do-do-do it)
The dream that we were redeemed, when we were always living free
[Chorus]
And everybody sing, and everybody sing (do it, do it)
Please, pull some strings for me
And everybody sing, and everybody sing (do it, for me)
Please, pull some strings for me
And everybody sing, and everybody sing (do it, do it)
Please, pull some strings for me
But you don't have to crown a king and keep singing (do it for me)
