I used to believe the one true church was the key
To feeling happy and being truly free
But now I have learned the truth
My happiness doesn't come from a pew
Whoa
I know this is true

I know I used
To be a big believer
I know, I never thought
I'd stop being one, either
I know that I gave
The credit to God
For the good that I did
The good that I thought
I know I testified
That I knew this was true
I know I went out
And taught the word, too
I know I believed the scriptures
And what I thought was the truth
I know I trusted in
What I had been taught in my youth
I know I used to think
The Mormon church was the way
I know I had
Committed to stay
I know I believed
In a Savior
To save me, change me
Transform my behavior
But now I know this church
Was built on a lie
It was made up
By a so-called prophet guy
I wrote a whole rap
About the story I was told
But now I know a bit more
Sit back and behold

Joseph Smith was a boy
Looking for what was right
At least that's what it seems
At the first sight
He said he went
Into a grove of trees to pray
And when he did
The Father and Son came to say
That no church was true
They were all in apostasy
But that's not how he first told it
Screw honesty
The first account
Was about finding redemption
Joseph only saw the Lord
That's the only one he mentioned
Then the story
Continued to change
Each version was different
Isn't that strange
Adding angels, two personages
And a different motive
When you compare the accounts
It can get explosive
But the problems
Don't end there
That's only the surface
If we keep going, that shelf will tear
An angel later told Joseph
To find an ancient record
Buried in a hill nearby
Wow, that's absurd
This Book of Mormon
He was told he couldn't relinquish
And that he would translate
The ancient book into English
He placed a stone into a hat
And put his face inside
Then the translation
The stone would provide
He claimed constant
Godly revelations
Including polygamy
And rituals from Freemasons
He died as a martyr
And of course that's tragic
But this church he created
It's based on folk magic

I used to believe the one true church was the key
To feeling happy and being truly free
But now I have learned the truth
My happiness doesn't come from a pew
Whoa
I know this is true

I don't need to be beholden
To a set of rules
For the "learn to be a good person"
Grade school
This church
Breaks up families
Instead of keeping them together
What a catastrophe
That's not morality
That's not centrality
Not a good reality
Not a good mentality
You don't need an invisible god
In the sky
To tell you what to do
To tell you what is right
If you think that people
Who don't believe like you do
Are led astray
By the devil in a dark suit
Take a pause; ask yourself
"Is that really true"
If you stop to think
You might make a breakthrough
Life is not black and white
I used to think that way
But that wasn't right
Now it's clear as day
In this church
The terms of salvation are set
Any criticism or doubt
Is seen as a threat
But now I'm free

It's hard to let it go
(I never thought I would leave)
Even though I know
(But now I'm finally free)
It's for the best
(I can just be me instead of a copy)
It's hard to let it go
(Of what the church thinks I need)
I used to say I know
(It's great to actually see)
That in this church I had been so blessed
(Life is more lovely)
It's hard to let it go
(I never thought I would leave)
And I hope you know
(But now I'm finally free)
While I was in, I tried to pass the test
(I can just be me instead of a copy)
It's hard to let it go
(Of what the church thinks I need)
Now I finally know
(It's great to actually see)
I can safely jump and leave the nest
(Life is more lovely; now I am finally free)
It's hard to let it go
