Speak Your Truth

Lord before I lay my head down so I can sleep Please let me speak truth for you or silence me [Verse 1] I know the devil's got it's eye on me Influencing our will through society Coercing the part of it that's truly free An individual's eye can plainly see I was coaxed to lie about my frailty Poker faced the hands dealt to me supressed along with my sobriety Weighing my sins against my piety Only when I'm in need I cry to thee If I'm ignored I earned the right to be Never will you say goodbye to me [Chrous] When being born what gives you life to breath There's more to it than you and I can see Because it's hidden before us purposefully Truthful communication will set us free Caring for and protecting the earth as it be Pooled time and resources shared collectively May end war and poverty then tackle disease Lord before I lay my head down so I can sleep Please let me speak your truth or else silence me [Verse 2] Free will to learn spirit's inside of me Through my mistakes I abide with thee Learned my souls sake is right with me Good or bad right or wrong we sing Our songs create noise or harmony I'll fight for this life it's more than existing In the end it's all for another beginning we're intrumental in what we are making Or this is an oven who's doing the baking This could be ours it's for the taking Live by the truth or you're just faking [Chrous] When being born what gives you life to breath There's more to it than you and I can see Because it's hidden before us purposefully Truthful communication will set us free Caring for and protecting the earth as it be Pooled time and resources shared collectively May end war and poverty then tackle disease Lord before I lay my head down so I can sleep Please let me speak your truth or else silence me
