Filthy
[Intro: Rietti]
"Its difficult to be spiritual when your own race is racist
Not anti-religion, me and rap is not a sin
Leaders advocate to practice hate
Any type of is still crew man thats face
I be reppin' for jewish equality”
Filthy
[Verse 1: Rietti]
Raised eyebrows, I'm a bit confused
I sit, peruse the scene, inspect for clues
Uplifting tunes but who do they whisper to?
Lighting bolts might descend any second move!
Feel like a convict in jurisdiction ooh
Wish I was born with a choice to wear different shoes
These laces got me tripping' I don't fit the boots
It's not as if I never did try to connect to you
No offence to the artist but I think your pictures skewed
It's white-washed, religion too
I've been cut off that greasy cloth that's been fabricated
With grey areas that's been painted with hints of blue
This material world I was clinging to is ripped in two
But I'm still hanging off a thread, a desperate Jew
Do you really exist, have you just been brewed?
They say I desecrate you, they think I'm rude
Because I'm
[Chorus: Rietti]
Filthy, Oh I've been filthy
But yet you built me
Now you wanna kill me
Filthy, Oh I've been filthy
But yet you built me
Now you wanna kill me
[Bridge: Rietti]
I am the wretch you created but laced me all full of sins
Injected me with venom holy water cannot cleanse
I'm filthy!
[Verse 2: Rietti]
Now i know it sounds as if I'm off the rails, listen
I'd scoff at me too but I'm no disbeliever
Props to the mastermind of this never fail system
Those who don't comply become dissed by leaders
I've spent my dog days sinking in my errors, wishing
I could drop dead, due to this big fever
How could an almighty god condemn me to hell, isn't
It written we're all designed in his flawless image? Either
I'm a production mishap from along the lines
Or denominations been relaying all of the wrong signs
God must love each one of us whether or not we pray
Whether atheist or rebel that's smoking too many J's
Lgbtq, anyone else in our crew
Bent people in strait jackets, he loves you if your gay
Ain't nobody a misfit, uh-uh no kind of jew
Argue that your a dipstick, retract the things you'd say when I was
[Chorus: Rietti]
Filthy, Oh I've been filthy
But yet you built me
Now you wanna kill me
Filthy, Oh I've been filthy
But yet you built me
Now you wanna kill me
Filthy…Filthy…Filthy…Filthy
[Outro: Rietti]
Now I don't denounce God or religion in any way
But doesn't it say in our bible that if we don't understand something, we've got to re-evaluate it's meaning?
Religious authorities need to put a halt to discriminating cultures within our religion...
Come on God made us the way we are we can't help it or change it...
We can change our outlook though...
So quit coming along saying that god wants us killed for the way he made us...
The issue lies in the way our leaders are translating things
Its clearly not a problem with him or us...
