I Ain’t God But I Wanna Be lyrics

[Intro]
(Woah x4)

[Verse 1]
She said I'll burn this down
It hurts me now
But give me time and a pen
I'll earn this town
I'll take it all to the grave or I'll wind up dead
I got a crown in my teeth that should be on my (shh) head

[Verse 2]
Don't sleep if you're by my side
You'll miss the moment my empathy dies
They're gonna nail my name to the Hollywood sign
And say the places I've been is where love goes to die

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause your body is bathed in blood
You called my name like I said you would
It's your last supper, but it ain't mine
I'll tell you that, I'll tell you I-

[Chorus]
Ain't God but I wanna be
I tear down every shrine to pieces
Do away with modesty
The burns on my back won't be there forever
Ain't got no philosophy
You got doubt, open-minded creases
I couldn't lie, but honestly
When you're playin' in your head you can say whatever
(Woah, woah x3)
When you're playin' in your head you can say whatever

[Verse 3]
Birds overhead, the crown below
I wonder how many days for the scars to show
And every day she forgets all her demons inside
She's got the seven deadly sins that'll burn into my eyes

[Verse 4]
Don't sleep if you wanna survive
It ain't the best but it's a hell of a ride
I'm like a fire that consumes everything in its path
She's got an eye on her soul and a pocket o' cash
She's singin'-

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause your body is bathed in blood
You called my name like I said you would
It's your last supper, but it ain't mine
I'll tell you that, I'll tell you I-
[Chorus]
Ain't God but I wanna be
I tear down every shrine to pieces
Do away with modesty
The burns on my back won't be there forever

Ain't got no philosophy
You got doubt, open-minded creases
I couldn't lie, but honestly
When you're playin' in your head you can say whatever
(Woah, woah x3)
When you're playin' in your head you can say whatever

[Outro]
(Woah, woah)
Ain't God but I wanna be
(Woah, woah x2)
I couldn't lie, but honestly
When you're playin' in your head you can say whatever
