Lyrics

JESUS

[Verse 1: M.I.A & Sunday Service Choir]

When you think M.I.A is done and Satan puts a full stop

God puts a comma and says, "To be continued"

Oh, Jesus, oh, Jesus

Set me free, set me free

I fight rulers of darkness, the diabolic and heartless

I didn't start this, but my fires light the bridges to where God is

God said, "Let there be light"

In the name of Jesus, I command the devil to leave you right now

Oh, Jesus, oh, Jesus

Set me free, set me free

Oh

[Verse 2: M.I.A]

Sword in my palms and my angels are arms

My mind, body, spirit is calm

And when God speaks, I downloaded thе psalm

I take by force what is mine, what is divinе

Ain't nobody gonna mess with it this time

Cannot retire, time for me to refire

And fight for my Eden and everything I desire

[Chorus: Sunday Service Choir]

Oh, Jesus, oh, Jesus

Set me free, set me free

Oh, Jesus, oh, Jesus

Set me free, set me free

[Verse 3: M.I.A]

Spend my days, prayer and fasting

Just to find the everlasting demons of masking

Set me free, that's all I'm asking

Turn me free, make me scream

Bury all the things that I have seen

Let go of all the things I've been, release me

This vision is not a dream

What I've seen, it makes me scream

I'm free, please don't ever leave me

[Chorus: Sunday Service Choir]

Oh, Jesus, oh, Jesus

Set me free, set me free

Oh, Jesus, oh, Jesus

Set me free, set me free

[Bridge: M.I.A]

I know I gotta change, I don't wanna die in shame

I wanna find the everlasting

Even if saying Jesus is the last thing

Yeah, Jesus is the last king

[Chorus: Sunday Service Choir]

Oh, Jesus, oh, Jesus

Set me free, set me free

Jesus, oh, Jesus

Set me free, set me free
