Against The World
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Come on lord, see our destiny
Was it written from the start
And now our time is just a layer...hidden in the dust
For we knew long that is was coming, the traitors they were running
But in the world so small you can only run so far
For we were now too many, disciples so aplenty
Not knowing it's the world that was the star
Too late to change we've play our part
Now we stand against the world
Invite the devil in as hell is what we need
This world of life what did it bring
Now an empty shell there's nothing left to bleed
A selfishness so hollow
Their children born to follow
Possession just a token of their minds
Why was our breed primed with weakness
This time there's no forgiveness
This path to God we may never find
Learn to face the challenge... Of our lives
The earth becomes another lonely star
The age of man that tried but then we went too far
Now the light that shines and see it fade away
Welcome in the kingdom of today
Now we stand (now we stand)
Against the world (against the world)
This world of life (this world of life)
What did it bring (what did it bring)
Now we stand (now we stand)
Against the world (against the world)
This world of life (this world of life)
What did it bring (what did it bring)
