lyrics

"I knew better" Music & Lyrics by Jim Heltz

I had the gift, the prophets said. They draped me in velvet , they anointed my head
They proclaimed I was truly blessed But, I knew better

I couldn’t raise Lazarus, but I could raise the roof it was eye for an eye and tooth for a tooth
They thought I was divine But, I knew better
I knew better, I knew better I lined my pockets with deceit
Ah yeah, I knew better

I was drunk with power drinking sacramental wine the rotten apple, the snake on the vine
They thought I was the truth But, I knew better

I fell from Grace; I squandered my gifts With sleight of hand and parlor tricks
They tried to save this fallen angel But, I knew better

I knew better, I knew better Another notch on my belt
Ah yeah, I knew better

I had the whole world in my hands See, I had a scheme, I had a plan
But God just laughs at the folly of man
Yeah, She knows better, She knows better,
