American gospel-pop singer and songwriter Parson James, has finally returned to the music scene with brand new single called “Temple“.
This new track arrives after the global impact of his collaboration’s on Kygo’s hit “Stole the Show” and Audien’s “Insomnia”, and of course, after his subtle debut solo single “Sinner Like You”, released earlier in the summer.
Lyrics Parson James - Temple
[Verse 1]
Oh, lordy, I wish it was just some day
But it's another Sunday
Oh, lordy, the people here, they all say
That I'm making a mistake
Oh, lordy, they're whispering my name now
Putting it to flames now
Oh, lordy, what is it that I've done to become the bad one?
[Pre-Chorus]
I've been so shaken, grace ain't been amazing
Tell me what's a man to do?
I done heard your message
I ain't got no blessings
Fire starting on the roof
And it's about time to say
[Chorus]
Hold up, why is this devil on my shoulder?
Hell must've got a little colder
But, hell, I got bolder
Na na na, hey now
Been too quiet, I'mma get loud
You want me in the temple with my head down
But I'm up now
Singing like ooh, ooh, he-e-ey, he-e-ey
[Verse 2]
Oh, lordy, it's like I've done some damage
They think I went and planned this
Ooh, lordy, why should I seek redemption?
Why do I feel this tension? Tell me
[Pre-Chorus]
I've been so shaken, grace ain't been amazing
Tell me what's a man to do?
I done heard your message
I ain't got no blessings
Fire starting on the roof
And it's about time to say
[Chorus]
Hold up, why is this devil on my shoulder?
Hell must've got a little colder
But, hell, I got bolder
Na na na, hey now
Been too quiet, I'mma get loud
You want me in the temple with my head down
But I'm up now
Singing like ooh, ooh, he-e-ey, he-e-ey
[Bridge]
Hold on, hold on to your seats
Ooh, cause I'm up, I'm up on my feet
And I'm singing, no, I'm singing like
[Chorus]
Hold up, why is this devil on my shoulder?
Hell must've got a little colder
But, hell, I got bolder
Na na na, hey now
Been too quiet, I'mma get loud
You want me in the temple with my head down
But I'm up now
Singing like ooh, ooh, he-e-ey, he-e-ey
Oh, I'm singing like, singing like ooh, ooh, he-e-ey, he-e-ey
[Outro]
Oh, lordy, it's like I've done some damage
They think I went and planned this
