I know the same 10 things as everyone else
sing the songs in front of the sanctuary
lead people in rejoice
& they shout & I sing
I encore I forget the words during the 2nd encore
remix a dry hymn
Give them something Eve would've fucked with
she bopping in the back pew mother
Geraldine's disapproving head shake makes us
be more turnt mother Geraldine always been judgy
Eve's always been a baddie even before
the fruit before that nigga Adam
feigned innocence deemed her cursed
and put his clothes on for the first time
