Lyrics God Given - Nine Inch Nails

God Given

Hey man, please don’t make a sound
Take a look around, can’t you see what’s right in front of you
Have a little taste, no more time to waste
You don’t wanna get left behind cause it’s all coming down right now
How hard is it to see
Put your faith in me
'Cause you wouldn’t want to be nailed
To the wrong piece of wood
You should get where you belong
Everything you know is wrong
Come on, sing along, everybody now
God given
And they gave us sight
And you’ll see the light
And it burned so bright
Now you know we’re right
And the work we’ve done
We’ve just begun
We’re the chosen ones
Hey, step into the light
How can this be right?
I’m in front of you
Now ask me to This you cannot win
With the color of your skin
You won’t be getting into the Promised Land
It’s just another case
Still don’t know your place
Step aside, look away, wipe that look of your face
Defiance
Raining from the sky
Come on, sing along, everybody now
God given
And they gave us sight
And you’ll see the light
And it burned so bright
Now you know we’re right
And the work we’ve done
We’ve just begun
We’re the chosen ones
