Lyrics
Intro – whispered / gritty
My God's not dead
(Ah… ah…)
He's alive and...
Walkin' through the black market in a red cloak
Blood-soaked like a saint, even angels cutthroat
If I die, I'm on my way to Zion
For all my faith, it's gonna take me higher
My God is a refiner, He made me in the fire
In the catacombs I roam
Readin' letters from Paul to the church in Rome
They tried to kill me, I didn't die
They said that I would burn, but I survived
Verse
They think I'm crazy (yeah, crazy)
When I talk about my God, I know it offends them (ha)
The devil hates me (uh, He hates me)
Rev 12:11
Verse
They don't want the truth to get out
They just wanna cut your head off
'Cause they know the church too devout
They just wanna persecute the children of the Lord God
Verse – call & response
I ain't scared to lose my life
For the One who gave me life
They could take away my rights
And I'd still live my life
What you mean, boy?
I just wanna preach the Word
‘Cause when they see the church
They know that they are redeemed, boy
I ain't afraid to lose my life
If I give my life to Christ
They'll say it's suicide
The new religion is consumerism
A place where a noose is tied - please don't crucify
I'm on my knees, but I'm only prayin' to the King, boy
Don't know what you think
But I ain't gon' kneel to no king, boy, kiss no ring, boy
Pre-Chorus – tension
I feel a change in the atmosphere (ha)
See the end comin’ soon like a fast career
There's too much goin' on in the stratosphere
I'm a lamb to the slaughter, I have no fear (ha)
When I lay my head down, I can hear the world comin'
When I look up in the clouds, I can hear the Lord comin'
I'ma wait 'til He touch down, they gon' be astonished
At the sword comin' out His mouth, comin' down
Takin' down all the lies - no surprise, every knee gon' bow
They think I'm crazy (yeah, crazy)
When I talk about my God, I know it offends them (woo)
The devil hates me (uh, He hates me)
Rev 12:11
They don't want the truth to get out
They just wanna cut your head off
'Cause they know the church too devout
They just wanna persecute the children of the Lord God
