Verse
Collarbone slick where the low end lives
Tongue finds salt like the body forgives
Spine keeps time with the kick drum's law
Shoulders unlatch every bolt and flaw
Knuckles unclench on the count of four
Kneecaps humming against the floor
Throat tilts back for the air to pour
This is the pulpit, this is the door
Pre-Chorus
Let the salt line spell your name
Let the burn turn into flame
Give the body back its say
Preach it out the only way
Chorus
Sweat is the sermon
Rolling down the spine
Sweat is the sermon
Read it line by line
Sweat is the sermon
Skin will testify
Sweat is the sermon
Amen with the sigh
Verse
Jawline drips where the hi-hats climb
Ribcage opens on borrowed time
Wrists go loose like the choir's hands
Body answering the beat's demands
Hairline soaked, the sermon's read
Nod of the neck where the verse is said
Palms turn up like an offering plate
Nothing left now to hesitate
Pre-Chorus
Let the salt line spell your name
Let the burn turn into flame
Give the body back its say
Preach it out the only way
Chorus
Sweat is the sermon
Rolling down the spine
Sweat is the sermon
Read it line by line
Sweat is the sermon
Skin will testify
Sweat is the sermon
Amen with the sigh
Bridge
No words left, just the drip and the drum
Congregation of the overcome
Every drop is a verse we keep
Preached out loud while the body speaks
Chorus
Sweat is the sermon
Rolling down the spine
Sweat is the sermon
Read it line by line
Sweat is the sermon
Skin will testify
Sweat is the sermon
Amen with the sigh
