Superficial by Apologetix
Superficial lyrics
Very superficial � whitewash on the wall
Very superficial � letter of the law
There�s too much obeying, no one�s looking past
Leaven�s in the breadbox spreading pretty fast
And do you really think that the Lord judges man on the surface
Superficial change your ways
Ooh, Pharisee official � wash your face and hands
Sifting out the small bugs, swallowing a camel
Keep doin� the same things, even though they�re wrong
You don�t want to change things, you�ve had �em so long
When you receive these things that you know come from man
And you're stubborn
Your traditions taint your faith
There is true forgiveness � nothing more than grace
Carry your traditions to 29 Isaiah
Thirteenth verse, oh baby, go and look into that
7:6-9 in Mark � put it in your past
And do you really think that the Lord judges man on the surface
Superficial change your ways
Mark 7:6-7
He replied, "Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you hypocrites; as it is written: 'These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. They worship me in vain; their teachings are but rules taught by men.' You have let go of the commands of God and are holding on to the traditions of men."
