Just an Idol

Just an Idol
(Jacob R. McGowen)

[1st Verse]
It is your treasure, It is your prize
It is your passion, it is your drive
But man it is faulty, and it can break
It cannot support and it cannot save

[Chorus]
Cuz, it’s just an idol, It’s just an idol
You’re in denial, the Nile
If you think it’s gonna save you
It’s just an idol, It’s just an idol
You’re in denial, the Nile
If you think it’s gonna save you

[2nd Verse]
It offers pleasure, no tears and no pain
It offers the world man, it offers all things
But it is a liar and man it is unkind
It will fight to kill and to destroy your life

[Chorus]
Cuz, it’s just an idol, It’s just an idol
You’re in denial, the Nile
If you think it’s gonna save you
It’s just an idol, It’s just an idol
You’re in denial, the Nile
If you think it’s gonna save you

[Bridge]
It does not love you, man it is not right
It cannot help you, though it really tries
It cannot lead you to walk out your grave
It cannot redeem you, bro it only brings pain

[Outro]
Cuz, it’s just an idol, It’s just an idol
Man you’re in denial, the Nile
If you think it’s gonna save you
It’s just an idol, It’s just an idol
It’s just an idol, It’s just an idol
You’re in denial, the Nile
If you think it’s gonna save you
