STRAIGHT THROUGH THE LIPS OF A BASTARD
WHO CAN COUNT ON ONE HAND THE TIMES
HE’S EVEN SEEN HIS FATHER’S FAAAAACE!
SRAIGHT FROM THE HEART OF A CHILD
FORCED TO GROW UP IN THE WIIIIIIIILD!
I’M GONNA’ RISE ABOVE THIS DISGRACE!
THIS BASTARD SWORD WILL GET THROUGH!
I MAKE THIS PROMISE TO YOU!
I’M CUTTIN’ UP! AND WHEN I DO
I’M CUTTIN’ A PATH FOR MY BROTHERS TOO!
What kind of world are we living in?
Fathers forget their own sons they begat!
What kind of place are we living in?
You weren’t there to answer me these questions, MY DAD!
What kind of times are we living in?
Looking back on it now, I’m kind of glad!
What kind of space are we living in?
You might have drifted me farther away from LAND!
The only father that I ever had to emulate…
Was my Creator, my Lord and Savior, Redeemer of my faith!
STRAIGHT THROUGH THE LIPS OF A BASTARD
WHO CAN COUNT ON ONE HAND THE TIMES
HE’S EVEN SEEN HIS FATHER’S FAAAAACE!
SRAIGHT FROM THE HEART OF A CHILD
FORCED TO GROW UP IN THE WIIIIIIIILD!
I’M GONNA’ RISE ABOVE ALL THIS DISGRACE!
THIS BASTARD SWORD WILL GET THROUGH!
I MAKE THIS PROMISE TO YOU!
I’M SINKIN’ IN! AND WHEN I DO
I’M SINKIN’ ONE FOR MY BROTHERS TOO!
What kind of world are we living in?
Fathers go off to work everyday!
This tragedy never occurred to me…
I didn’t HAVE A DAD ANYWAY!
But now that I’m older and learn’ed
I keep seeing this cycle repeat!
I see the symptoms of sickness!
That system’s BROKEN, DON’T YOU SEE?
What do you say to your children when they
Want to get to know “Dad” better at night?
Do you tell them you’re tired (all by yourself or)
Do you hide behind your wife?
As I am growing older and looking in the mirror
Can I say that my future’s looking any clearer?
Not if I lead the same life that my parents lead!
My children won’t have learned much about life from me before I’m dead!
Know you and I are blessed… no matter what they say we are.
We have a clearer focus… All we have to go by is one Star.
Our Father didn’t leave us… like everybody says he did.
He gave us the greatest family… of brothers and sisters under Him!
Know you and I are blessed… no matter how they look at us.
We have been tried and tested… Somehow He knew we’d rise above.
So tell me, why were we made… to live this life without our father’s help?
It’s an internal question… I hope you answer yourself.
Why were we made to be so hard? Why were we trained to cope so well?
What kind of children will we guard From the very fires of Hell?
You know what they say about us… They call us “Generation Why?”
I think we’re challenging a nation… To change to allow our own children to fly!
What kind of world are we living in? What kind of world is it you can see?
What kind of world are we living in? One day it will belong to you and me!
What kind of world are we living in? What kind of world is it YOU CAN SEE?
What kind of world are we living in? One day it will belong to YOU AND ME!
What kind of world are we living in?
The kind that I AM AT WAR WITH!
What kind of times are we living in?
The kind that I WILL NOT FORFEIT!
What kind of place are we living in?
‘Cause I am THROUGH WITH PLAYING GAMES!
Straight through the LIPS OF THIS BASTARD!
THE KIND OF WORLD I AM GOING TO CHANGE!
STRAIGHT THROUGH THE LIPS OF A BASTARD
WHO CAN COUNT ON ONE HAND THE TIMES
HE’S EVEN SEEN HIS FATHER’S FAAAAACE!
SRAIGHT FROM THE HEART OF A CHILD
FORCED TO GROW UP IN THE WIIIIIIIILD!
I’M MAKING SOMETHING FROM THIS DISGRACE!
THIS BASTARD SWORD WILL GET THROUGH!
I MAKE THIS PROMISE TO YOU!
I’M BLOWIN’ UP! AND WHEN I DO
I’M BRINGIN’ MY BROTHERS WITH ME TOO!
THIS BASTARD SWORD WILL GET THROUGH!
I MAKE THIS PROMISE TO YOU!
I’LL SHOCK THE WORLD! AND WHEN I DO
THEN THE REST IS UP TO YOU!
If you died today, are you absolutely certain that you would go to heaven? You can be! TRUST JESUS NOW
