Bring out your angels and look to the sky
Me and my broken wings are tryin everythin to fly
Torn apart now I'm living in a nightmare
The end is coming soon cuz I notice the light's near
It's bright here but my sights ain't clear
People grin as they sin cutting life like a dull spear
Shed a tear, for the ones taking dives
Whispering out their fear as they missed half their lives
Tryin to get back what they think they lost
A tragedy, seems to me, like a personal Holocaust
"The Spirit" I adored, but as of lately seems I'm ignored
By the Lord, and I hoard all these feelin's
Infinite cowards roam doing their shady hurtful dealin's
Your past has bothered me but so does our future
Mental bleeding wounds needing more than a sutcher
Chorus (Sir Pure):
If you're afraid to be a zero
Then take the strides of a hero
Take a chance to make an impact
Do somethin positive that will always last
If you're afraid to be a zero
Then take the strides of a hero
Take a chance to make an impact
Do somethin positive that will always last
2nd Verse (Sir Pure):
All these shades of gray, my wings begin to fade
Harsh dealin's with harsh feelin's day after day
I continue to ask why, but now realize
It isn't the time for questions that I despise
Yet never the less life continues the suspense
Slow dispersal with a short reign
So much ground in front of me that is left to gain
I'm slippin at a moments notice
And I can't seem to reach the surface
For a short breath to inflate my confidence
That is slippin into the depths at a constant
Then I hear "never give up" take my hand
And feel the grasp that begins to lift
With these bright lights here to overcome the darkness
Buyin me a short window of good conscience
I need to keep up the fight in this plight
View it as a gift despite the fright
Chorus (Sir Pure):
If you're afraid to be a zero
Then take the strides of a hero
Take a chance to make an impact
Do somethin positive that will always last
If you're afraid to be a zero
Then take the strides of a hero
Take a chance to make an impact
Do somethin positive that will always last
3rd Verse (Sir Pure):
Gettin back in line and on the right path
With a mirror forcin me to see
What it is I believe
With myself starin right back
It's a moment that I really need to grasp
To my knees I fall and my eyes begin to rise
Lookin up to the sky
Thinkin back to what it was like in Christ's time
In the beginnin when he knew his demise
Yet, still went through with the sacrifice
Now in this day and age we all tend to whine
When we don't get our way, too many soft spines
Afraid to fight for what is right
And work for what we earn
We should Learn and destroy our flaws
So we can once again see some delight
Take the time to shine
Get rid of the crimes
Take a step up and trust, it'll be fine
Just choose to persevere and spread the word of the most high
