VooDoo by The W.O.R.D Effect Lyrics
[Verse 1 Excite]
I heard a man turned money into black paper, they called it voodoo
If he did it in a church it would have been a miracle
Compared it to a crusade poster to a witch doctors
Same difference
I am sick of these posers magicians turned pastors
Who use the name of Jesus and rob the church of millions
Touch not the anointed speak against them and its mutiny
But since where Gods servants above scrutiny
We so amazed by signs and wonders it kinda makes me wonder
What happened our discernment and testing every spirit
Even pharaoh had servants that did the same miracles as mosses
But that was voodoo
Chapter 1 the book of titus
We are warned of false prophets
But few will acknowledge that these men are among us
Growing daily like a fungus
They do it in his name but they are not of Jesus
Don’t believe me look at Judas
[Chorus]
We've seen that before the acts of the whore
Babylon, Babylon that's what they brought
They got friends on the other side it's not the Spirit's work
Do the spirit test homie, for your spirit's sake
We've seen that before the acts of the whore
Babylon, Babylon that's what they brought
Don't it seem strange, the things that you do
That's not the Spirit's work, it's more like voodoo
[Verse 2 WingzBeatz]
It’s like hocus Pocus, its clear that you bogus
But we already know this, cause Christ ain't your focus
Its an ulterior motive, turning church into showbiz
Using God’s name in vain, but we know what your true goal is
Why’s Willy Wonka in Church? What you know bout doctrine?
You say the word is sweet, but we didn’t come here for chocolate
Amazed by these tricks cause they’ve never been seen
Getting hyped up, getting pumped up, getting gassed up
For some dude with paraffin?
That the truth believe me, that’s just a fake Houdini
The magic show’s at your doorstep, no need to watch on TV
They claim to be a branch of the church, but what’s the root?
You need to open you eyes, even Satan wears suits
Beware of false teachers turning church seats into bleachers
Claiming to know the word, even demons know Jesus
They don’t want the bread of life, nah they just want the dough
We don’t want them here, please show them the door
[Chorus]
We've seen that before the acts of the whore
Babylon, Babylon that's what they brought
They got friends on the other side it's not the Spirit's work
Do the spirit test homie, for your spirit's sake
We've seen that before the acts of the whore
Babylon, Babylon that's what they brought
Don't it seem strange, the things that you do
That's not the Spirit's work, it's more like voodoo
[Verse 3 JamSauce]
We behind these lines, battling lies, man, we've seen enough
We here to rescue, when we done Scotty beam us up
While we trek, we'll bring the fight to these phony dudes
With our light sabers, better put, we defend the truth
This is serious but you ain't believing us
It's like you've been bewitched
That's why you'd rather believe the lies
Have you seen the ads read the papers cuz
Witchdoctors giving power to these quote and quote "men of God"
They heretics, twist the truth
Like the devil when he quoted the Bible
You take it in cuz you gullible yea they work miracles
And through your desire for such
Manipulate you like with voodoo dolls
There's no gospel preached they just money seek
And lead the church with insight from some funny dream
From Satan's hand
Getting saved from sin through some bottled water
Please tell me what from hell is that
[Chorus]
We've seen that before the acts of the whore
Babylon, Babylon that's what they brought
They got friends on the other side it's not the Spirit's work
Do the spirit test homie, for your spirit's sake
We've seen that before the acts of the whore
Babylon, Babylon that's what they brought
Don't it seem strange, the things that you do
That's not the Spirit's work, it's more like voodoo
[Verse 4 Saint]
I've got a question for which I need an answer
Is witchcraft synonymous to modern miracles?
This question is practical when we ask we radical
There is serious need to be Biblical not mystical
A man doing disappearing acts kinda like Hoodini
Eating snakes, eating hair its Biblical am like really?
It sounds silly, but people think these are men of God
God' messengers they only want to stack up on that gold
Church service has become a major show a magic show
This is big business kinda like its show biz
Anointing water, Jesus soap this now an in thing
Jesus’ name’s now a chant word
But they forget that His the king
So called miracles that lack decency like Lenshina
Dark arts, It's gone green. Their means are much more cleaner
These are false miracles, they lack divine power
Practice dark arts with dark hearts call it black on black
[Chorus]
We've seen that before the acts of the whore
Babylon, Babylon that's what they brought
They got friends on the other side it's not the Spirit's work
Do the spirit test homie, for your spirit's sake
We've seen that before the acts of the whore
Babylon, Babylon that's what they brought
Don't it seem strange, the things that you do
That's not the Spirit's work, it's more like voodoo
