[Intro]
I heard Jesus did cocaine on a night out
Eyes wide open, dilated, but he's fine now
And if his father ever finds out, then he'd probably knock his lights out
Gets a little messy in Heaven, gets a little messy in Heaven
[Verse 1]
Barefoot on the pavement, he was never complacent
Held his ground for the town and the statement
Leader, never backs out of the arrangеment
Speaks out to the wholе crowd when he saves them
But he was the one that needed saving
Now he's low-key crushed on the inside
He gave his all and now he's breaking
You can see it in his eyes
[Chorus]
I heard Jesus did cocaine on a night out
Eyes wide open, dilated, but he's fine now
And if his father ever finds out, then he'd probably knock his lights out
Gets a little messy in Heaven, gets a little messy in Heaven
[Verse 2]
He's staying out on the weekdays, weekends
No sleep for the weak 'round here
Going out, getting lost in the deep end
White lines never dried no tears
He says no more, now he says no less
And the people wanna know where he goes next
Mind of a saint, so he knows best
But he don't sleep, nah, he don't rest
Turning water into wine, that's mad, that's mad
Everybody always wants what he has
[Pre-Chorus]
Gets a little messy in Heaven
Gets a little messy in Heaven
[Chorus]
I heard Jesus did cocaine on a night out
Eyes wide open, dilated, but he's fine now
And if his father ever finds out, then he'd probably knock his lights out
Gets a little messy in Heaven, gets a little messy in Heaven
I heard Jesus did cocaine on a night out
Eyes wide open, dilated, but he's fine now
And if his father ever finds out, then he'd probably knock his lights out
Gets a little messy in Heaven, gets a little messy in Heaven
[Outro]
Gets a little messy in Heaven
Gets a little messy in Heaven
Gets a little messy in Heaven
Gets a little messy in Heaven, gets a little messy in Heaven

It’s an anti-drug anthem: someone I’m close with has gone through a really difficult time with drug addiction. It’s a song about someone that doesn’t put themself first and finds themself in a really dark place. Metaphorically, it’s saying that no matter who you are, you can still fall down a diffic...

The lyric ‘I heard Jesus did cocaine on a night out’ is based on a dream. One of my friends was struggling with addiction at the time, and I was raised with a faithful background, so the metaphor to me felt fitting. [That lyric] did for sure ruffle a few feathers, but I’m basically saying t...
