You're Not My God

It's just a piece of paper, it says, "In God We Trust"
And a little sure felt good
But a lot was not enough
And everybody loved me when I was on a roll
And I thought I had everything
When I held the gold

But you're not my god
And you're not my friend
You're not the one that I will walk with in the end
You're not the truth
You are a temporary shot
And you ruin people's lives and you don't give a second thought
You're not my god

Little white lies on a mirror
Cut neatly in a roll
Medicine that kept me from lookin' in my soul
I thought you were the answer
To all of my despair
And you almost had me six feet down
But I'm still breathin' air

Oh 'cause you're not my god
And you're not my friend
And you're not the one that I will walk with in the end
You're not the truth
You are a temporary shot
And you ruin people's lives and you don't give a second thought
And you're not my god

From the cradle to the grave
Temptations all around
But no matter how good the fix
It's gonna take you down
Now some call it a weakness
And some call it a sin
But it's all the same behind each game
I see your evil grin

But you're not my god
And you're not my friend
You're not the one that I will walk with in the end
And you're not the truth
You're a temporary shot
You ruin people's lives and you don't give a second thought

Whoa, you're not my god (you're not my god)
And you're not my friend (you're not my friend)
And you're not the one that I will walk with in the end
You're not the truth (you're not the truth)
You're a temporary shot (temporary shot)
Hey, and you ruin people's lives and you don't give a second thought
'N you're not my god

'N you're not my god
Oh oh oh you're not my god
You're not my god (not my god)
Mmmmm not my god
Not my god
You're not, you're not, you're not my god
No you're not
