Digging deep, I feel my conscience burn
I need to know who and what I am This hunger jolts me from complacency Rocks me, makes me meet myself Jacob walked a limp to remind him Of the greater gift of the greater one But when I fell, I fell to my own resources How can I carry the truth, if I can't even crawl to you? : I wanna feel something sweeter than this sin Cover me in leaves roll me over again I've been everybody else now I wanna be Something closer to myself Paint me in a different light Shed me yet another coat of skin Mark me with ash until I'm clean again Cause I'm so sick and tired Of being sick and tired I know I can love you, I know that I can : I wanna feel something sweeter than this sin Cover me in leaves roll me over again I've been everybody else now I wanna be Something closer to myself |

The summer sun has come to stay,
Bikinis, tans, outrageous legs, They're all retarded and they all look the same, And barbie's body is melting down, On her face a big fat frown, 'cause Mr. Cellulite just moved into town. Well me and B we hate supermodels, It's not that we know anyone personally, It's just that I'm tired of being compared. The boys they come here, With expectations for the summer, And I refuse to take any part of this barbaric ritual, 'cause God has given me a mind, That I will use from time to time, And I got more on my head, Than what's made by Paul Mitchell. It's just that I'm tired of being compared Was it worth the tears you cried... to fit the size? Think it over once or twice, What lasts the longest in this life, Character, or rock hard thighs? And in the end do you believe, That beauty lies in what you see? 'cause if you do, then baby Youve been deceived. |

Hey, Alice are you completely
Satisfied with Wonderland And all it's wonder? Cause if you're not, you know I've Heard that they're handing out a money-back guarantee at the door. Going blind to the pain, Going deaf to the sight, Going dumb to the cries, Of the innocent life. I read the paper, And I drank all the juice In my refridgerator, now I'm Starved for knowledge, And thirsty for the truth. And in the pages I could Sense all the longing in the world I close my eyes, cause I'm longing too. Going blind to the pain, Going deaf to the sight, Going dumb to the cries, Of the innocent life. Who knows your name, anymore, anymore? I'll say your name, forever more, forever more. Blind to the pain, Going deaf to the sight, Going dumb to the cries, Of the innocent life, Of the innocent life. |

40 days in Hollywood 40 nights in hell
How's life in your comfort zone? Out here on sacred ground I'm doing swell The new word is I'm crazy could have told you that before But if you've got the guts to join me leave your sandals at the door Because there's no turning back, no wasting time No giving up on what I know is mine No way I'm stopping not a chance I'm backing down I've come to fight for mercy and take this angel town I hear it so clear it pounds upon my heart Who will give ear, and sacrifice to start Am I alone? If so, it is well with me Do you know that the truth will set you free 40 days in Hollywood, 40 nights in Hell Sweet seduction plagues the streets I know now why she fell But there's no time for distractions and I will not close my eyes I'm hunting for the hurting, desperate in their cries |

Boy know your place.
Lies do not become us. Real is more attractive than a slick and polished mask. Girl dig down deep, I know there's more between us. There's bound to be a question You're just dying for me to ask. If you can be honest I can be too. If you'll take the first step I'll follow you through. But no one wants to bleed. No one wants to hide. No one wants to hurt alone inside. Child don't close your eyes The truth contains much beauty And though it scars your soul It can heal the wounds it makes You've been deceived to think That pain is to be dreaded, And you've got nothing left. It'll give more than it takes. If you can't find a peace I'll help find it for you I don't know how, But one thing that's sure Is I won't leave you now. If you can be honest I can be too If you take the first step I'll follow you through No one wants to bleed No one wants to hide No one wants to hurt alone inside. |

It's not the time, it's not the place I am afraid ( ) They keep telling me, I'm not alone They're all standing by me, but I am not my own This thing is growing like a cancer I must kill I am so confused, I don't know what I feel I refuse to believe this is a child It's not a person yet it takes quite a while And guilt is great on my shoulders tonight Could someone please tell me what is wrong and what is right What is wrong and what is right, what is wrong and what is right But I know it's life, I can't deny that it's life Oh is it life? Can I deny this its life? I am afraid |

What these years have brought me
What these years have taught me Heartache and fame A chance to change A Hope to be stronger That beauty can smolder A stage and a curtain That nothing's for certain Oh these years have been hard on my bones What this world has brought me What this world has taught me Senseless spinning Never tie instead of winning Ice cream for licking The clock's always ticking No one is free Someone must have a key Oh this world has been hard on my bones All this time I'd been seeking my own Oh this road has been hard on my bones What this love has brought me What this love has taught me Patience in battle Who's in the saddle? Joy and dispair That I really do care Uncertain desire The risk going higher Yeah this love has been hard on my bones What this God has brought me What this God has taught me Passion and grace How to stand in one space Laughing at lillies What truly fufils me Death on a cross It was I that was lost Oh this God has been life to these bones Oh this God has been life to my bones Yes this God has been life to my bones |

a modern day moses, waking the streets
with shouts of glory, blistered feet hes met the maker, hes met the reason hes alive and hes on fire inside a modern day mother, living in the slums feeding the hungrey, making sure the race gets run, always asking if we fought with steady feet she fights on her knees let my people go a modern day martin in a world of civil words exchange but dreaming bigger, he thinks maybe he could make a change hes heard the stories, he wants some of his own and hes not alone. the time is not the moments here, walk in faith or stand in fear change the course of history, did you ever think no one ever though --- who would have believed? let my people go a modern day me what have i become, what can i be? if there is greatness out there to be acieved i want to be more than someone who just passes through this lige i want to stand up for what is right |

Good week I've got
Gonna see him once again Been working out, reading up Be all smart and slim Who'd knew I'd be this anxious Who'd have guessed this horrid fate? All I know is I Have to be perfect by Thursday Perfect by Thursday I rarely get to see him And his name is all I know He smiles like a king And that's all he'd dare to show I'm faithfully attending My motive almost pure Reckless in my thinking But it's his that I'm not sure Perfect by Thursday I'm planning the evening I know what I'm wearing And what I'll be singing Perfect by Thursday One day left And it's not looking very good I haven't seen much progress To perfection like I should But now I cannot quit Because today could be the day That all the effort All the work decides to finally pay. And then you will fall in love I smile when you walk by I laugh even louder You don't even bother I hold every memory As sweet as a lemon As loose as a fire So now he's on the TV screen He's catching for some man Moved away and left me here I don't understand But I'm convinced that he'll be back When I do least expect Despite my opposition I fear that I am correct Perfect by Thursday I'm sprinting to make it If I have to fake it You know I can take it |

I'll tame this lion of flesh before the night is over
My love will not let me rest until my mind is sober Reputations from my past chained so tight You break free you break fast on my decision tonight Formerly known as nothing and and no one Formerly known as lost I've been sold to lies I've been told by former generations Who tell me what's worth having a hold on for cheap sensationss But you ask me at this moment who I say I am A new creation they don't have to understand I will not be bound by what they tell me I can be I will not stay silent I will speak my liberty |

In the midst of my darkest hour you see my tear-stained face
This broken form that no longer feels power with no apparent place But even when this world has turned her back on me When it's cold where it once had burned When my thoughts are frightening You will never leave me When I fail at living and loving when I fail you Lord I want things that I know very well I cannot afford When I feel like I have no purpose except to live and die Or all they tell me is that I'm worthless why even try I cannot be sure of my love for you But in the midst of my doubt...you are true |

The winds came by and they carried me away
At least that's what your momma said she'd say Of course I knew that you would never believe But baby sometimes even big girls are allowed to weep Oh Brenda Gene my peanut butter queen Innocent and bright don't think of me as mean Sweet Brenda Gene for all you haven't seen You know I hate to leave you fatherless at fourteen I'm sure you think I've left you alone Torn apart our happy home But love, I never planned it this way Never this soon and never this day Heaven's quite a sight to see I'm sure you'll be here too And though it's beautiful my dear it can't compare to you |
