Priest Lyrics

Mm, mm, mm

Yeah, there are liars, but then there's you, mm
In retrospect, that's what brought me to you, mm
Guess I thought I could change you to the truth, mm
I don't know, I don't know what I was thinking, uh huh

Sometimes, I miss you and then I remember
That I deserve much better
Cover my tattoo about you with another
And now I'm feeling much better

Oh, you broke my heart and now you want some redemption
Oh, it's obvious that you ain't learned your lesson
Oh, you're owning up so you can get to heaven
Oh, but I'm not a priest, so fuck your confession

In my weak moments, I think about you, mm
But not in the way that you think that I do, mm
I've actually made up a game with my friends
To see how long until this one ends and the next one begins
I've got a hundred dollars riding on it, mm

Oh, you broke my heart and now you want some redemption
Oh, it's obvious that you ain't learned your lesson
Oh, you're owning up so you can get to heaven
Oh, but I'm not a priest, so fuck your confession

Oh, oh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh, but I'm not a priest, so fuck your confession
Oh, oh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh, but I'm not a priest, so fuck your confession

Sometimes, I miss you and then I remember
That I deserve much better
Cover my tattoo about you with another
And now I'm feeling much better

Oh, you broke my heart and now you want some redemption
Oh, it's obvious that you ain't learned your lesson
Oh, you're owning up so you can get to heaven (yeah)
Oh (oh yeah), but I'm not a priest, so fuck your confession (so fuck your confession)

Oh, oh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh, but I'm not a priest, so fuck your confession
Oh, oh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh, but I'm not a priest, so fuck your confession

What is the Meaning of Priest?

Ever had an ex who suddenly wants to play nice after breaking your heart? This song captures that exact feeling. Julia Michaels sings about someone who hurt her deeply and now seeks redemption, but she's not buying it. She remembers she deserves better and even covers up a tattoo that reminds her of the past. The chorus makes it clear: she's no priest, so their confessions mean nothing to her. It's a powerful anthem for anyone who's moved on from a toxic relationship and refuses to let their ex's apologies pull them back in.
