“Temple” is a bold step in the right direction for GAWVI. The title correlates his body with a temple, as 1 Corinthians 6:19 states, “Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?” GAWVI discusses the events in his...
Temple Lyrics
[Intro]
Oh, ah, ha
Yeah, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm flying through air
I can't explain what I'm facing
Yeah, yeah, are you really there?
Or part of my imagination
[Chorus]
What if I jump out this window?
Will you really be there as I fall?
Yeah, I thought it'd all be more simple
Things are looking more fogged up
I'm jumping out this window, oh
I saw it all burning on fire
I saw it all burning on fire
So I'm jumping out the, jumping out the window
I saw it all burning down on fire
I saw it all burning down on fire
I saw my house burning down
Burning down, burning down
House on fire, burning down
Yeah, on fire
[Verse 1]
Yeah, how could I let go of my very own temple?
Maybe I'll start where I wish things were forgetful
My childhood someone touched me sexual
Then came teenage years and the devil
I was in ministry and addicted to porn
I lived in churches since the day that I was born
Jesus, how could I be struggling with this thorn?
Maybe it was the pressure to go and perform
Oh, no, no, lookin' out the window
Saw it all burning down in flames
Saw my life burning down
I saw my house burning down and everything around, oh, no
Jumping out this window, yeah, uh
[Verse 2]
Yeah, I got caught up in hiding things under the rug
I've seen so many people fail and no one show up
I hate that I can go and sin and think that I'm stuck
I wish I was a little braver trusting Your love
Oh, when they leave
Lately, I've been seeing everybody run
Maybe there's the fear of what's already done
I'm giving all of these thoughts, I feel temptation
Maybe to die really is too lenient
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm flying through air
I can't explain what I'm facing
Yeah, yeah, are you really there?
Or part of my imagination
[Chorus]
What if I jump out this window?
Will you really be there as I fall?
Yeah, I thought it'd all be more simple
Things are looking more fogged up
I'm jumping out this window, oh
I saw it all burning on fire
I saw it all burning on fire
So I'm jumping out the, jumping out the window
I saw it all burning down on fire
I saw it all burning down on fire
I saw my house burning down
Burning down, burning down
House on fire, burning down
Yeah, on fire
