The Resistance

I was born into a system constructed for failure

It's a sinking ship manned by drunken sailors

An escape artist behind the bars of a jailor

An asthmatic attack when we forgot the inhaler

If the shoe doesn't fit what good is a tailor

In the midst of a crisis please cancel the gala

Without a symphony there's no need for a prelude

To foreshadow what's to come.

See the secret committees, commence with their meetings

To make red tape in response to simple questions

Questions threaten the perception of the beneficial systems

A pyramid scheme with it's cogs and it's pistons

Mechanization of men, making more and more

Live in a miserable exhistance

How can so few, claim so many victims

And this begs the question

My rest is a weapon against the oppression

Of mans obsession to control things

Look at the long line of make believe kings

The lord of the flies want's you to kiss his ring

Follow new rules with invisible strings

And become a puppet in the diabolical scheme

How do good men become part of the regime

They don't believe in resistance.

Hold fast like an anchor in the storm

We will not be moved

Lesson number one, overcome

Every fear of regret and confusion

It's all illusion, delusion

Sent to disconnect the holy fusion

Of spirit and the flesh

Every mortal breath, is meant to bring forth fire

But only when the fear of death, gets consumed

On the funeral pier

So let the flames rise higher

Let every man be considered a liar

If he doubts the goodness and faithfulness of God

Itching ears will compulsively nod in approval

When unbelief is taught in all our temples and schools

But God can restrain the madness of a fool

He can bring His truth through the mouth of a mule

You can move an mountain without any tools

It just takes the faith of a little seed

to make a way through what might seem to be

Impossibility,

And the ability will match the occasion

The outcome will defy explanation

The liberation will not be televised

When it arrives like lightning in the skies

Hold fast like an anchor in the storm

For your love, we will rise and overcome

Through the fire

Hold fast my people and sing

Through peace and through suffering

All for the joy that it brings, to be free

It's gonna cost us everything

To follow one Lord and King

True love endure everything

To be free

Hold fast, like an anchor in the storm

We will not be moved
