I.N.X - Gold Plated Jesus [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Spoken Word]
He said, Jesus died like a G...
So to commemorate his death for me I’ma rock this Jesus piece
I think its crazy how God sent his only son to show us what peace is
And to commemorate his death for us we dawn his body in pieces
Where’s the logic?
Humans always seek to tangibilize whats cosmic
And turn things beyond physicality into product
And since we all made in his image, the way we sculpt Jesus says something about how we think God looks
It even tells us his depiction in the good book
But the good book ain't good enough for the masses
So somewhere along the lines his bronze skin became porcelain
And his hair of wool became permed
Then his head got chopped off, dipped in gold, and sold for half of the salary you earn…
Gold Plated Jesus…
Said niggas dying for that gold plated Jesus
See when a decapitated head can encapsulate the depths of your spirituality
It don't surprise me much when you lose touch with God's reality
When you lose touch with God's reality
See God made the world in seven days but it only took us one to turn his son into a casualty
And...
You see what really baffles me is, we say we praise him so much but we think wearing a sculpture of him dying on the cross is enough
Is enough....
To receive redemption for poor decisions
Dawning this caucasian savior on my chest I hide my sin behind religion
But my religion is sin
Cuz even in the bible it says there shall be no created image of him
No created image of him....
Cuz I guarantee the face you see on ya chains end, ain't gonna be the same face you see in the end
