Kalimah – Bishop

Kalimah – Bishop Lyrics

Artist: Kalimah
Song: Bishop

You were the bishop, I was the sinner
I was the sinner
I was so little
You were the bishop, I was the sinner

I was the sinner
I was so little
Your reputation was at stake
And you said that we made a mistake

I wore the scarlet letter
So you didn’t take the fall
You said it would be better
Better for us all

I did everything I could just to have you
Even when it meant a life of hating my own skin
I did everything I could just to please you
I became the outcast again

Bishop sent to set me free, made me believe again
Kissed me till I felt His love
Speaking scripture all over me
I came to you, broken and bleeding

Made me think you were what I was needing
Help me see, I pleaded
I told you my secrets, did you keep them?
Confessions felt like intimacy to me

Tell me your best kept secret
Is free will really free?
I said Bishop please forgive me of my sins
I think I get pleasure with the pain

Yeah, I think I like the praise as much as I like the shame
But now I see at 22
What you don’t see that young
You were in power, I was hurting

Begging for love from someone who should’ve known better
Now I tear off this scarlet letter
Because I’ve already been through hell
You were the bishop, but I was the sinner?

I was the sinner?
No, I was too little
You were the bishop, but I was the sinner?
I was the sinner?

No, I was too little
God complex doesn’t mean that you can take
Advantage of little ones, who don’t know the stakes
Stop writing these scarlet letters

And using the vulnerable
And if you don’t do better
I hope you’re miserable
