Jesus Says Lyrics

This is my body
This is my blood
This is my mobile
These are my drugs
Eating egg and bacon in my flat
Ripping up paper making wraps

Because it's all about the profit
It's all about the profit
And I'm a prophet
And I'm a prophet
It's all about the profit
It's all about the profit
And I'm a prophet
And I'm a prophet
I'm a complex system
I'm a line of code
You're a complex system
You're a line of code

Brothers and sisters
Jesus says leave your cars and offices
Brothers and sisters
Jesus says leave your cars and offices
Brothers and sisters
Jesus says leave your cars and offices
Brothers and sisters
Jesus says leave your cars and offices

This is my body
This is my blood
This is my mobile
These are my drugs
Eating egg and bacon in my flat
Ripping up paper making wraps

You idiot
I'm a liar
I'm the robot from Isiah
See the sky freeze
The ocean boil
I baptise you with crude oil
Oh I synthesize dreams
Synthesize dreams
Your dreams
Your dreams
I synthesize dreams
Synthesize dreams
Your dreams
Your dreams
I'm a complex system
I'm a line of code
You're a complex system
You're a line of code

Don't you want to save your soul
Don't you want to save your soul

Don't you want to save your soul

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I think this is a very interesting song. The lyrics are very subtle, just like the lyrics of all The Servant's songs. I think most of this song is about making drugs, particularly the part about "synthesizing dreams," which I think refers to getting people high on the drugs. I think it's also really interesting how all of this is next to lyrics about Jesus, which I think could possibly be comparing religion to the modern world. Nonetheless, I think that due to its subtlety, these lyrics can be interpreted in many different ways.

Dan Black said it was just a supposition of 'what if Jesus was alive today and selling drugs?' It can also be about a crazy pusher thinking he's Jesus saving the people with his drugs.
