Lyrics for Bless Yourself

When I walk into the structure I do myself a favor And I bless myself, yes Every head must bow down And every tongue confess And I don't care how you found out This is only a test So test yourself I see the way that you're looking down Tripping through life as you fumble around Quick check, respect, nobody around So reach under your dress And caress yourself Yeah, now listen People say, "I need God on command God on demand" If God's too busy then I'll bless myself All these people saying, "Call your own shots" They're not robots, they want no roadblocks They are a team unto themself, they say "I don't answer to anybody but myself!" Whose fault is it now? Who do you blame now? You gonna cop to that? If you're a cop, then arrest yourself If you're trying to provoke yourself then You're gonna need to invoke yourself then A prayer spoken from the newly awoken says "Must we always distress ourselves?" You'll say this, you'll, you'll sing this "Where did all the time go?" "Where did all the love go?" "I hung on to my ego, but now?" I just want to drown myself They say trust no one, not even yourself So now I can't even trust myself? Damn We always hurt the ones we love But now we also have to love ourselves Are you feeling blessed? Are you feeling blessed? No? Then bless yourself
