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' 'cuz 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
'cuz 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
