Kill The Messenger Video (MV)

I always thought I'd ride the line
Between holy and too far gone
Didn't think I'd see a time
When a prayer didn't seem so strong

I tried to never miss a sermon
I guess she wasn't trying to too
Bible studies at a fancy mansion
What's a guy suppose to do

Yeah talk around town blew through so quick
A man of God with another man's wife
I wouldn't ever of imagined it
I'd have to take the Messengers life

So I read a few chapters to know my soul
Wasn't running straight for a trap
Cause when I close that door to my old Ford
The golden road's the only way back

Lord forgive me
For I don't know what I'm bout to do
Guide my hand, let Your will be done
Cause the devil's sure on the loose
He's thumped more than his Bible
Just a little too hard
I must've missed that in mine
Didn't catch that part
He broke both our rules
Now I gotta act
And send him right back

That offering plate paid for a real nice house
It's a shame I had to kick that front door down
Got lost a few times trying to find that room
Where I knew I'd catch them two

When I busted in, it was a sight to see
Just her and him and God and me
Laid the hammer back on that 45
We said one more prayer before goodbye sayin....

Lord forgive me
For I don't know what I'm bout to do
Guide my hand, let Your will be done
Cause the devil's sure on the loose
He's thumped more than his Bible just a little too hard
I must've missed that in mine
Didn't catch that part
He broke both our rules
Now I gotta act
And send him right back

Thou shall not covet
And thou shall not steal
Shall not take another man's wife
Cause thou shalt be killed

I still read my Bible in this concrete cell
And feel right about what I done
Cause this town got word where I sent him to
Guess I was the messenger all along"
