[Verse 1]
Maybe we will get to Heaven and realize we were both wrong
Who can throw the sharpest stone, build the biggest throne?
Is there really a winner if we both have broken bones?
Maybe we will get to Heaven and realize we were both wrong
We're all just slapping wrists over why we all exist
Everyone's Arminian and everyone's a Calvinist
[Chorus]
Can we tell God from a man-made king? (Ooh)
Can we tell love from a promise ring? (Ooh)
Can we tell the Kingdom from the kingdom where we lay our head down at night? (Ooh, ooh)
Gunshots, smoke clouds, the air I need (Ooh)
I'm tired of fighting wars if you're a casualty (Ooh)
Can we tell the Kingdom from the kingdom where we lay our head down at night? (Ooh, oh)
[Post-Chorus]
You are my country
You are my land
You are the line I'm drawing in the sand
[Verse 2]
And maybe we will get to Heaven and realize we were both wrong
We were told to take a side of which evil felt more right
Will I really find a savior on one side of a party line?
[Chorus]
Can we tell God from a man-made king? (Ooh)
Can we tell love from a promise ring? (Ooh)
Can we tell the Kingdom from the kingdom where we lay our head down at night? (Ooh, ooh)
Gunshots, smoke clouds, the air I need (Ooh)
I'm tired of fighting wars if you're a casualty (Ooh)
Can we tell the Kingdom from the kingdom where we lay our head down at night? (Ooh, oh)
[Post-Chorus]
You are my country (Hey)
You are my land (Hey)
You are the line (Hey), I'm drawing in the sand
Jesus, You are my city (Hey)
You are my town (Hey)
You are the King (Hey), we'll give You back the crown
[Outro]
'Cause maybe we will get to Heaven and realize we were both wrong

This one was really @gableprice genius that I was lucky enough to help write with him. There isn’t much mystery or need for explanation in the lyrics and that’s on purpose.
