Lyrics

I'm Just Sayin'

If I say, "Hey! I'm going in for tests, hoping for the best."
Someone will say, "Hey! I'm hoping for that too. Here's what I can do:
I'll send my thoughts and prayers."
But they aren't aware
That it does as much good as knocking on wood
Just because you believe
It doesn't mean it is real

I'm Just Sayin'
If you're just prayin'
You're not swayin' anything

And if I say, "Hey! I've got an update: things are going great."
Someone will say, "Hey! God is so good. I knew that he would
Hold you in his healing hands."
They don't understand
It was the doctors who they should give credit to.
Just because you believe
It doesn't mean it's real.

I'm just sayin'
If you're just prayin'
You're not swayin' anything

And if God is omniscient
I don't think he's missin'
Whatever you are praying for
And if there's a perfect plan
Then I don't understand
How a prayer can do something more
I'm Just Sayin'

God you're great, God you're good
I tell all my friends like I should
That you are love and I love you
And that they all should love you too
'Cause you are awesome
You're the best
I'd never put you to the test
But can you show them that you're real
And let my friend be healed?he
Hello? God? Are you there?

Thoughts and prayers, they go nowhere
You might as well be casting a spell
Just because you believe, it doesn't mean it is real

I'm Just Sayin'
If you're just prayin'
You're not swayin' anything

And if God is omniscient
Maybe he isn't all powerful
Or doesn't care
That he lets so many suffer
With disease and hunger
Despite the many thoughts and prayers.

I'm Just Sayin'
