Temptation Lyrics

Peep the c**ture's mentality
Saturated by s**uality
Attracted by sensuality
Fantasizing a false reality
Here's
the technicality
We're trying to fill a spot created for spirituality
It's grown to epic proportions
It's turned a
beautiful thing into an ugly contortion
Take caution
When you browsing on the web late nights
Cuz there's
over 300 million p*** sites
It starts with small b***s
But beware your appetite can grow
Statistics will show /
It.s an epidemic that over 50 million Americans now know
Cuz their addicted/ They can't evict it
It.s wrecked
their expectations � their afflicted
It.s big business
Bigger than all pro sports put together
$12 Billion dollars
(watch out) � temptation is clever-
Chorus
You got to know (repeated 4x.s) you can make it � you can take it (2x's)
Vs.

s** sells and the c**ture buys
From CD's,
to cars,
to French Fries
Legs,
b******,
and thighs
Marinating in
your thoughts � it ain't wise
From Tims and Jeans � To suits and ties
It all starts with the eyes
For the girls
and especially for the guys
l*** entices with the tantil - eyes
It's no surprise
We try to take something that
ain't ours - we plagiar - eyes
In our mind we try to re-shape reality � we love to custom � eyes
But the result
we despise
The consequences come in and wreck us with the vandal � eyes
Don't fall for the lies
Don't fall
for the disguise
Let's stand up together and rize
and open our spiritual eyes
See the truth � see the proof
� let's unite and mobile � eye-
Chorus
Bridge
You're checking out the girls in the mini-skirts
Now I know your flesh wanna put in work
But that�s not how he
told you how you should live
And I know they looking good in the videos
But that�s not what he made all of
these women for
Call his name � I promise that he�ll forgive-
Vs.

Sometimes we think we're strong and that we�re exempted
But we have to be real and admit that we�re tempted
/ It's easier to avoid than it is to resist
This was clear in Matthew 6 with Jesus' prayer list
Lead us not
Into the
situations that�s hot
But our flesh likes the heat before you know it you forgot
But hold on to the God's rope � 2
Timothy 2:22 can be your knot
Choose to stop-
Chorus
1 Cor.
10:13 says that God is faithful.
He will keep the temptation from becoming so strong that you can't stand
up against it.
When you are tempted � he'll show you a way out � so that you won't give into it! So,
next time
your tempted � look for that strength from God and look for that way out � he'll provide it � that's word.
