Pray for me
Dehydrated - we're isolated
In a blind mind state - it's why I'm debating
As a hypocrite
Spitting the politically indiscriminate scripts
That simply miss the intricate root of issues
Treat the symptoms and hope to fix 'em
But neglect the inner workings of the system
Blame the victim but insist we're sinless
'Cause the truth is ruthless and hard to ingest
They're screaming, "God ain't really given me anything on my wish list!
I quit givin' Him my time until He listens!
If He's omniscient, omnipotent
And all good then isn't it logical to submit that
He wouldn't just dismiss this situation?
I'm understandably pissed and anticipate more than your hesitation, Christian!
I need an answer deeper than your mission statement"
Tied up, dried up, grounded, bound
Lord, help us
Tides of lies surround and pound
They've held us
Idle driving, blind reciting
Fall upon my knees while the demons await in hiding
Broken down - I need You now
Broken down - I need You now
As I'm seeking balance like the gods of Mortis, I can see the fallacies that I've imported
If I reap the battlefield the pawns of war will think they're Kingdom's Calvary, but God's ignored
I'll let these dreams devour me like bronze in forges
If it keeps empowering, then my thoughts conform
But they leave us cowering to compound the norm
Until the Beast that's prowling overpowers the poor
All these sheep be leaving church in droves
Believing words we spoke deceiving - seems then
The hypocrisy disease is seething
Preachers deem heathens irredeemable
Searching for a suitable pharmaceutical remedy
While churching more immutable disreputable tendencies
The curse is indisputable - evident 'cause we tend to see
Our sin as irrefutable - prevalent in the pedigree
Tied up, dried up, grounded, bound
Lord, help us
Tides of lies surround and pound
They've held us
Idle driving, blind reciting
Fall upon my knees while the demons await in hiding
Broken down - I need You now
Broken down - I need You now
We put upon a pedestal a multitude of idols
Peering through the reticule of Biblical recital
This cycle drives us while we pine for revival
Claim Christ guides us and reside in denial
Essentially attempting to excuse each and every
Individual instance of insolence against
His holiness
Still screaming "I miss the Christian country
Founded on Biblical principles"
Ignoring integral introspection
Hyping hypocritical
Hurt, hiding, and cynical
Fighting for the pinnacle of
Self-righteous principles
Effectively neglecting the abused
Speaking severed we're
Recycling rhetoric - reciting what we receive
Comfortable cultural Christians
Horrified and rigid when the
Course of our country continues counter
To conservatism
Caught up in the politics
Forgot the point of service
I'm the target of my criticism
Tied up, dried up, grounded, bound
Lord, help us
Tides of lies surround and pound
They've held us
Idle driving, blind reciting
Fall upon my knees while the demons await in hiding
Broken down - I need You now
Broken down - I need You now
