Iniquity: An Offering |
How will you measure your value? |
I have heard the scholars, they provide no truth. |
We’ve turned away from what we were meant to be, |
Trading in conviction for a dollar’s worth in dreams. |
We’ve blurred our sight with stagnant eyes, |
And then we pass the blame so we can cover up our lies. |
New revelations are your new trend. |
A self-absorbed enlightenment. |
Words of worth have become slander and deceit. |
Open up your eyes. |
We were meant for so much more. |
Have we lost ourselves? |
Forged from providence but so far gone. |
Have we lost ourselves? |
I’m not giving up on me. |
How easily we mistake chaff for the grain. |
We are more than flesh and blood. |
Look how far we haven’t come. |
We’ve been playing God. |
Reveal in us the failings of the ones who walked before us. |
Reveal in us, the truth that we all have lost our way. |
Reveal in us, our strength because our backs cant hold the weight, |
Show us the flaws in everything that we create. |
To live walk and breathe. |
We all want to believe. |
But can’t we offer up a new song? |
Can’t we offer ourselves? |
