Who are you trying to fool?

Who are you trying to fool? 

You paint your mask on

Thinking you can fool someone

But you can't hide anything from God

People you might be able to fool

and they think you have it together

But just ask Achan how hiding worked out for him

thinking nobody saw his sin

Just to be humiliated and stoned before all

Because God said who you trying to fool

What you sow you will reap

You plant a "fake Christianity" seeds

and you will reap the rewards of 

"I never knew you!"

Who are you trying to fool?

People can only see skin-deep

and maybe later on some might see your fruit

or lack thereof

But God knows what it is that you are planting

and He will reward you for what you sow

Because only He knows what is in your heart

Make right with Him for real, 

not by wearing a mask so fake

to fool people whose opinion don't matter

in whose nostrils is but a breath

and they themselves one day

will have to give account for their own masks or true fruit

Who are you trying to fool?
