Sally - No Church in a While Lyrics

I ain't been in church in a while cos' for long I've been hurting
Now I roll in the wild and everyone here is hunting
And I know that I'm prey cos' I'm no longer praying
But I'm numb to the pain, so in this jungle, I'm staying


Thought this was a safe space from when I was a child
But I was naive, maybe I was kinda blind
To all the dysfunction sowed into my mind
Now my soul is weary and I no longer smile
All I got was abuse, all they doing is use
Sowing lies never truth, bitterness is the fruit
All I got was abuse, all they doing is use
So I cut from the root, so I'm leaving the pews


I ain't been in church in a while cos' for long I've been hurting
Now I roll in the wild and everyone here is hunting
And I know that I'm prey cos' I'm no longer praying
But I'm numb to the pain, so in this jungle, I'm staying
I ain't been in church in a while cos' for long I've been hurting
Now I roll in the wild and everyone here is hunting
And I know that I'm prey cos' I'm no longer praying
But I'm numb to the pain, so in this jungle, I'm staying


Sunday morning, got me mourning
So I drown it all in alcohol
And I'm pouring, more and more in
The empty space that's inside my soul
I hear You calling, sounds so foreign
Your people misrepresent the call
Still I'm yearning for a returning
To the fam so I can be whole
Don't wanna go there, where there is no air
Cos' I can't see life, Jesus is not clear
Don't wanna go there, I'm living with no care
Don't know how much more of this I can bear


I ain't been in church in a while cos' for long I've been hurting
Now I roll in the wild and everyone here is hunting
And I know that I'm prey cos' I'm no longer praying
But I'm numb to the pain, so in this jungle, I'm staying
I ain't been in church in a while cos' for long I've been hurting
Now I roll in the wild and everyone here is hunting
And I know that I'm prey cos' I'm no longer praying
But I'm numb to the pain, so in this jungle, I'm staying


Ooh, wow
Ain't been in church in a while
Used to be full of the fire
But now I'm a prodigal child
It's cruise now
And I've been on too many miles
I wanna return to the 99
But don't know if I can be found"
