Front

You got so many emotions that don't click

So much hate you let pile up so thick

You kick and scream for things to change

But then you're all out of breath and everything's just the same

Because you're tryin' but dyin' cause you're denyin' the facts

You're puttin' up the act to fill the hole where your life lacks

Purpose, conviction, fulfillment, and likewise

The confidence behind the sweat that stings your eyes

All that anger and all your fear

All those questions you got caught up in here

Are there for a reason, you're young, you're alive

But the answers are there if you'll just open your eyes and see

God came into our lives, and He changed us

Gave us a reason to fight and forgave us

In Christ we're united by the blood of The Lamb

The blood from the nails in His feet and His hands

You're only as strong as the chain's weakest link

So you might not be quite as hard as you think

A nation divided against itself will fall

And you can't pull it together, so you're nothin' at all

Bad boy standin' with the clenched fists

(Give him any lip kid, you're gonna get hit)

Can't tell me you're complete, that being tough is enough

Cause we see right through your front and we're callin' your bluff

You claim to hold your own but you're defending your weak spot

The hole in your heart where you know you need God

Your eyes open wide, your skin grows pale

Because you're face to face with the truth, and it's hard as nails

You say, how can I say what I say

How can I suggest what you might need

You say, I don't know a thing about you

Or how you think

You say, I am pushing my beliefs on you

And I'm wrong for doing so

You say, I should shut my mouth

But there's one thing I know

Your eyes, they see the same as mine

I know you've got to feel the pain like I do

I just want you to know

There is shelter from the storm
