Sweatshop Union - God Bless Lyrics lyrics

rate me

"Do you believe, in God?" {*echoes*}

[Verse One]

Man the world's on it's end and somethin gotta give

How do we spawn so much evil from somethin so positive

Pick a side is your prerogative

Or we can just sit in here bickerin who God is

Love, change, life all the above

Far more than the three letter word we speak of

But we judge, discriminate and hate

But pray to wash it all away every Sunday

There's no escape from your own devices

Even with blind faith in Jesus Christ kids

And far greater than any saint or savior

Safe to say it takes more than faith to save ya

Born and raised through honor thy neighbor

While we wage another war, worship in the name of God

[Chorus: repeat 2X]

Like the sun up above the trees (bless)

These trees allowin us to breathe (God)

Whether yours, whether him or hers (bless)

These people let 'em sing the words (God)

[Verse Two]

God it took my whole life to meet you again

Forgive me those years, I didn't know how to speak to you then

I speak to you now, through the ink that bleeds from this pen

To seek counsel, and I think I need to repent

I speak to my friends and reason with them

And seek to find a way to try to stay free from the sin

And yet, even if sin excedes the weed and the gin

We drink not believin in the freedom within

I think I believe we can win

I believe it like I know I hear you breathin the wind

Through the speakin of streams, the people that sing

and birds beating their wings, please believe that you can speak through me

And when I speak to people let my voice be love

and praise and faith and hope and all that

And when I've reached the speak, let 'em say my life

was light and truth until my soul was called back to God

[Chorus]
