We did not see it coming All of a sudden, we found ourselves In the middle of this Virtual civil war The powers that be Have managed to blind The masses hungry For entertainment and lies Viewing the world Through a distorted mirror That was made to mislead Those too lazy To bother Forging fake news To push their propaganda Not caring about The consequences Viewing the world Through a distorted mirror That was made to mislead Those too lazy To bother Open your eyes Refuse the garbage They try to feed you Stand up for yourself Deny the lies And make a difference Let’s end the madness And listen to the wise Let the light into our hearts
2.
Your moral compass Is clearly broken Or worse, you have Lost it entirely You have been acting Like some weather vane Changing direction with the Wind of money and fame Choosing the path Of least resistance Even though you should know It’s a slippery slope It is not too difficult To see where it will end Unless you decide to put Blindfold on your eyes How could You end up like this I pray it is not yet Indeed the end of you From the outside looking in, it’s easy to see What’s wrong with this picture of you But nothing will improve until you see it for yourself And decide to turn it all around I’m on the verge of giving up on you But hope against hope, I still long to see you change For the better, turning your steps Back to the narrow path that you’ve sadly left

Wake up! You are still Dwelling on the past Or rather, a version of the past You prefer to remember Wake up! You’re daydreaming Having come to believe The story you invented Is true You’ve surrounded yourself With men of weak will Who will agree with anything You happen to say They assure you that This make-believe world You’ve pretended living in Is real Applying double standards You’re ready to condemn others You have hardened your heart It is now like stone Where is your forgiveness For your supposed enemies? You are still carrying This heavy burden Of hurt feelings A damaged ego Applying double standards You’re eager to condemn others Refusing to forgive them the sin You too committed against them
4.
You replaced the sacred with the earthly The profound got replaced with the profane You exchanged heavenly insight With the wisdom of this world God is no longer in the center Man has been exalted on the throne The Spirit is now grieving He’s still calling you, you just have to listen The matters of the Spirit Have lost their significance for you Carnal motivations have taken their place In your internal kingdom now the flesh reigns You have not realized How you have fallen down From the hilltop on high Where you once stood You’re feeling high while just crawling on the ground Vanity has blinded your eyes, you cannot see this basic truth Heaven’s door is open still, it is waiting for you Bow down before the throne, let go of the old you

Lifted High 03:29
Under the limelight Elevated from the ground Lifted high above Your audience Staring at you With bright faces Thousands of skulls Sporting empty eyes They are ready to accept Whatever comes from you Just to fill the void Inside Your voice is soaring high Above the heads Your message is getting out Amplified Their minds are void Of clear, conscious thoughts What you do seems To be working on them You’re so full of yourself But what you fail to realize Is that God is not fooled And he will not be mocked
