[Talking]
|
Please give me the strength I need to live...
|
Bear with me
|
Amen
|
|
We each walk the path, that we've chosen
|
|
[Chorus]
|
I'm ready to meet him
|
We're I'm living ain't right
|
Black hate whit
|
White hate black
|
It's right back
|
To the same fight
|
They got us suspecting a war
|
But the real war is to follow the law of the lord
|
|
Lord, you left me stranded
|
And I don't know why
|
Told me to live my life
|
Now I'm ready to die
|
Ready to fly
|
I cry, but I shed no tears
|
You told me you would dead those fears, it's been years
|
Snakes still coming at me
|
Just missing
|
Sometimes I think all you doing me is just listen
|
I thought that I was special
|
Thats what you told me
|
Hold me
|
Stop acting like you don't know me
|
What'd I do so bad that it sent you away from me
|
Not only sent you away, but made you stay away from me
|
(My child I'm here, as I've always been, it was you who went away,
|
And now are back again, what did I say?)
|
Follow your word, and be true
|
(What did you do?)
|
Well:what I wanted to do...
|
(What have you seen?)
|
Darkness and hell at a glance
|
(What do you want?)
|
All I want is another chance
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
(Just because you went away, my doors are not locked, wanna come back home, all you gotta do is knock)
|
Ya see, I left home a boy, I returned as a man
|
Full grown, and I'm still not able to stand
|
(I gave you a hand)
|
Well...but I was looking the wrong way
|
Figured out the plan, then I started to pray
|
And that prayer, took me from here to over there
|
Back to over here
|
Now they got me like where?
|
Do I belong?
|
Do I fit in?
|
Things on my mind, where do I begin?
|
It's easier to sin, but it hurts my heart
|
I'm really tryin' to win, so where do we start?
|
(Thou shall not steal)
|
But, what if he stole from me?
|
(Thou shall not kill)
|
But what if he's tryin' to kill me?
|
(Thou shall not, take my, name in vain, no matter how hard it rains, withstand the pain)
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Our father, who art in heaven
|
I'm not ashamed to ask for guidance, at 27
|
No longer afraid to knock on your door
|
Not scared anymore to lose my life in the war
|
After what I just saw, I'm ridin' with the lord
|
Cause I really can't afford to lose my head by the sword
|
And now that I've seen, what I need to see
|
Please take me, where I need to be
|
(What have you learned?)
|
It's better to tell the truth than to lie
|
(What have you learned?)
|
To love my life until I die
|
(What have you learned?)
|
Violence isn't always the key
|
(What have you learned?)
|
You can't always believe what you see
|
(What have you learned?)
|
It's better to forgive and forget
|
(What have you learned?)
|
Give as you expect to get
|
(What have you learned?)
|
That I can't go on without you
|
(What have you learned?)
|
I must've been a fool to ever doubt you
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
I'm ready to meet him
|
