Jesus Sees You

[Verse 1] You hide that hood in the pew But Jesus see right through Bible in your shaking hand Still can’t bless what you do Coward steps in dead of night Borrowed hate, borrowed pride You built your name on fear But fear don’t live inside of us [Pre-Chorus] No, you can’t wash that stain Say His name, still bring shame Every mask gon’ fall away Every lie gon’ break [Chorus] Jesus sees you Jesus sees you Behind that hood He knows the truth Jesus sees you Jesus sees you Coward hands, empty roots White hoods and white dress suits [Verse 2] We been here before your chains Before your fields, before your pain Kings and queens in Egypt gold Africa in our bones We made crowns out of stone which you tried to destroy and stoled Made whole worlds from the dust You didn’t give us breath You can’t take what’s in us [Pre-Chorus] No, you can’t bury that flame Try to dim it, still we reign Every wound turned into gold Every broken thing made whole [Chorus] Jesus sees you Jesus sees you Behind that hood He knows the truth Jesus sees you Jesus sees you Coward hands, empty roots [Bridge] We rise, we rise With the fire in our eyes We rise, we rise What was stolen won’t survive Anointing on our skin That power deep within You can’t own what God has given You can’t silence who we’ve been [Chorus] Jesus sees you Jesus sees you Behind that hood He knows the truth Jesus sees you Jesus sees you Coward hands, empty roots White hoods and white dress suits
