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 to preception 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 existence.
How can so few, claim so many victims?
And this begs the question;
My rest is a weapon against the oppression
Of man's obsession to control things.
Look at the long line of make believe kings,
The lord of the flies wants 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 endures everything
To be free.
