BLOODMONEY Lyrics

What do you believe?
When everyone is watching, what do you believe?
What do you believe?
When nobody is watching, what do you believe?

Keep telling yourself that you've been playing nice
And go beg for forgiveness from Jesus the Christ
Beg for forgiveness from Jesus the Christ
Beg for forgiveness from Jesus the Christ
Keep telling yourself that you've been playing nice
And go beg for forgiveness from Jesus the Christ
Beg for forgiveness from Jesus the Christ
Beg for forgiveness from Jesus the Christ

I know what it feels like
To have my soul sucked out of my body
I finally know what it feels like
To be dead

Your soul can't be saved for all the sins you've ignored
And the devil is well aware he is adored
Never forget the excess of a man
Because the grabbing hands always grab what they can

What do you believe?
When everyone is watching, what do you believe?
What do you believe?
When nobody is watching, what do you believe?

Keep telling yourself that you've been playing nice
And go beg for forgiveness from Jesus the Christ
Beg for forgiveness from Jesus the Christ
Beg for forgiveness from Jesus the Christ
Keep telling yourself that you've been playing nice
And go beg for forgiveness from Jesus the Christ
Beg for forgiveness from Jesus the Christ
Beg for forgiveness from Jesus the Christ

What do you believe when no one is around?
What do you believe when no one is around?
What do you believe when no one is around?
What do you believe when no one is around?

What is the Meaning of BLOODMONEY?

In a world where beliefs are often dictated by the gaze of others, one song dares to challenge this notion. "BLOODMONEY" is a powerful critique of hypocrisy and insincerity, particularly in relation to religious faith and morality. The repeated question "What do you believe?" underscores the disparity between public persona and private convictions. It suggests that many people's actions don't align with their professed beliefs, especially when they think no one is watching. The lyrics also highlight the human tendency towards greed and excess, suggesting these sins can't be easily absolved through shallow repentance. Furthermore, the line about having one's soul sucked out could symbolize losing oneself in societal expectations or material pursuits. Ultimately, Poppy calls for genuine self-examination and integrity in both faith and action.
