1. Blow It All Away
You're the pricking of my skin
The crawling of my flesh
I can feel you spreading yeah
Like the hand of death
I have a gun, and I won't run
When two worlds collide on the edge of time
Once I was a man with lost identity
Now I lift up the Christ that lives in me
Maybe this is heaven, I don't know
Was it really me that you loved the most?
Did I make you cry I won't compromise?
When the New World comes, like the rising of the sun
Blow it All away
Blow it All away
If my Kingdom were of this world today
I think I'd blow it All away
2. To The Sky
There is a hurting place where feelings are not spared
This is a selfish world we come unprepared
You saw me fall
You seen me crawl
You wish me dead
But that's too easy
To the sky where the devils can't fly
These are the killing fields' illusions of my mind
This is an angry place I seek all that's divine
I ran alone, with my candle burning
Sweet Christ came with a light to shine
I can see it was perfect design
I thank God that I'm not blind
The fire was sweet when I was tried
3. More Than Human
Devil in your head
A serpent in your tree
Soaring through the heavens
of your lost soul
You believe every lie
Jump from every shadow
Listen to them you will live
in guilt and shame
We are,
Here to Save your Souls
More than Human
Your crime is never waking
from your mortal sleep
I do not condemn you
Twisted duality
Jesus never condemned
Jesus He forgave
Never took revenge
Christ we will be saved
7
I tried to tell you the truth
To share my heart with you
But it comes by revelation
To those who hunger and thirst
Against hope believed in hope
I am not ashamed
I do not live in guilt
In my world there is no pain
They say I am going to burn But they will never learn
I'll never be like them I'll never be like them
They all dress in white to cover the flesh on their back
I'll never be like them I'll never be like them
4. Drop D
I'm blind from coughing up blood
Crippled, broken, damaged in love
I'm starving from a fractured jaw
My hate from the dogs that maul
I SCREAM just to be heard
I PUSH because life is a blur
I'm tired cause I can't sleep
Misunderstood Teenage Freak
GOT THE RIGHT!
To be loved and be loved
GOT THE RIGHT!
To be loved and be loved
EVERYTIME I'M UP YOU WANNA BRING ME DOWN
Anger, Hate, Revenge it makes me feel ill
Rage, Aggression, Vengeance, no one left to kill
I am sick of feeling sick
I can't take any more conflict
I SCREAM just to be heard
I PUSH because life is a blur
Hell on earth and Hell within
Life is a battle fight to win
GOT THE RIGHT!
To be loved and be loved
GOT THE RIGHT!
To be loved and be loved
EVERYTIME I'M UP YOU WANNA BRING ME DOWN
When you think you know the answers
Don't believe that you're so wise
Cuz' all it is, is your opinion
And then life passes you by
It's judgment day when you step in with me
Tell the Lord Jesus just what you have done
Made me promises, it seems so cruel
But, what you've done to me comes back on you
5. Head Lookin' For A Bullet
I was born into this world no identity of my own
So, I believed every word that my sweet mother told
When I was a child, I learned the devil ways
I could fight with the best of them
I could resist the pain
As I became a man, I learned life's mysteries
But there was always something hidden away from me
Head looking' for a bullet, loose your head!
Looking for a bullet.
This deceptive place lies and politics
I've been on the edge agitation has set in
I see the trouble is coming again
Minds of wrath are rising within
When the worlds were framed
I was standing there
The things that are seen were not made
Of things which do appear
In the desert of my mind in the in-part realm of time
At the Place of the Skull count all my bones
In the valley of decision on the island of despair
Cut off my way of thinking I will see you there
6. Best I Expect To Do
Remember when I was larger than life; everyone wanted a piece of me
You stood there right there in line to take your cheap shots hurting me
What if I came back? And the lights were brighter than before?
You are in denial
Cause I'm the King of the World!
That's the best I expect to do
Is to walk all over you
Every drop of sweat that pours from my skin is the salt of my soul
You don't expect me to trust, eyes as black as coal
I'm going to fly through the crack in the sky
Through the hole in the sun
To the center of the earth
I'll never be outdone
You wanna know why the change when everybody knows my name
Don't you worry your not to blame I just can't remain the same
Do you believe in torment?
I'm the touchstone of your soul
I just can't believe
In your hell any more
7. Evil Geniuses
To All my critics the cynics who want me want to go away
What keeps me going why don't I quit?
I'm not a looser like you a reviewer like you
A liar or a hypocrite like you
I'm not a frustrated beaten musician like you
I would rather be a Has Been than a Never Was
The public is funny
They love you one minute
In the same breath, they hate you your old news
Then they beg you to play old school
Then they want it back like it was / what to do?
Like before, they get bored; keep score, your ignored, strike a chord
The cycle is you reward.
Then they hate you again, then they hate you again
They buy God they sell God, I'm numb
Baby Jesus Love Dolls, Everybody wants one
They rob God, create God I'm numb
I dropped the BOMB!
These are my words
That make you burn, that cleanses your soul that wakes the dead
The same fire you condemn me in, I've been baptized in,
Purged in, matured in, not hurt by, been blessed by, been purified
Just because you don't understand me, Don't mean I ain't justified
Maybe you have a learning disability I am sanctified
You wouldn't come to me when you had a problem with me
You took it to the press, like all the rest
To the promoters, my manager
even my mom, You created a mess
If your life is so redundant, so boring so routine, so bland,
Uninspired, that you got to invade mine,
Get into my affairs, infiltrate my beliefs
Get out of me, away from me,
Stop terrorizing me
Watcha you wanna email me, rail on me, accuse me, cut down on me
I give my heart to you; I'm not your therapist
You say I'm in sin, you judge me,
you stone me I can't help it if you are blind; you act like you own me
I preach the same Christ, the same grace, the blood saves,
abundantly above all that we ask or think, freely,
don't grieve me, Pain me with self righteousness
You won't be there to cry with me,
You won't be there to bleed with me,
You won't be there to rise with me;
You won't be there to die with me.
8. Revolution
I'm looking for the Sons of God
Manifest the inner light
First Fruit Company stand on your feet
Salvation comes to history
Your sound goes out to all the earth
Your words to the ends of the world
There is no speech nor dialect
Where your voice is not heard
It's A Revolution
It's A Revolution
It's A Revolution
YOU don't get the point
I can see it in your eyes
The cross is the door, You are the promise
Every thought is captivated
Bringing obedience and revelation
Appearing in us for every eye to see
Transformation and Resurrection
Free from death hell and the grave
Watch me wade the flames of fire
I will suffer for your sake
I am that I am
I am sent me
I am blots out transgressions
I am that I am
I am sent me
I am who comforts you
9. Baren River Blues
10. Microphone
The truth, the hurt, the Spirit, the Word
The Voice, the choice, who will you serve
The Life, the Blood, the tree the Love
I've paid my dues, below and above
The race, the prize, the in outside
The fire, the crier, the flames expire
Abounding in hope the anchor my soul
Jesus the Christ, All enter the light
The first resurrection, mercy and truth
Remember the life imparted to you
They come they go like a river they flow
The first, the last, the future, the past
YOU CAN HEAR ME
YOU CAN HEAR ME
YOU CAN HEAR ME
Cuz I have a microphone!
11. Short Time In The Grave
I will not go mental
when you spit in my face
There's no reason for your violence
or this war you wage
You've never seen me panic
When your living life enraged
I can't say that you are in control
while your banging on your cage
And the devil burns in the pits today
Forever seems like a short time in the grave
All my sins are purged away
And the devil burns in the pits today
I know what its like to burn
I'm in flames every day
Are you still afraid of me?
Cause I can feel your pain
Judge nothing before the time
Until the good Lord comes
Brings to light the hidden things
There's nothing left undone
12. Universe
No more curse in the Universe
No more death in the Universe
No more hell in the Universe
No more sin in the Universe
Won't cast off forever, won't leave my soul in hell
Won't cast off forever, won't leave my soul in hell
Not maybe, not some not a few
Not maybe, not some not a few
He above All, through All and in you All
He above All, through All and in you All
He above All, through All and in you All
He above All, through All and in you All
Free gift came upon all men
Shall be saved yet so by fire
Grace abounds Worm is dead
They shall see and understand
All concluded in unbelief
No condemnation cleansed by blood
Consigned all men disobedience
There is one power it is love
13. White Elephant
