Lightning strikes, not once, not twice
But three times in this heart of mine
Storm clouds slowly gathering for months on end
now the black clouds no longer hide
the violence and ugliness inside
the wind begins its lofty howl
inside I am bruised and battered
clinging as I hold on but for what?
More emptiness, more boredom, more self pity
more questions, more loneliness, more of the same
less of everything I need
More restrictions
less freedom
more control over me
less always less, taking without ever giving
You are not a government for the people
but the master of your slaves and
I am no slave
Carve out your careful plans
make your selfish laws
I will not bend and I will not break
no matter how this storm rages on and on
I will stand
barely stand
but stand as long as my life will let me
I will not cower at the sight of your face
I will not hate you
I will pray for your soul
although you are dead to me
I will stand and live free as God meant me to be.....
Send your thunder
send your rain
send your fire to consume me
when all is said and done
I am here and you are gone
and love, surely love will live on
your insanity is met with sheer defiance
you and your alliance are no match
for freedom, liberty and love
send your storms
I spread my wings
you lost the day you plotted this course
I won the moment I saddle my horse
I get to ride out in a blaze of glory
you get to stand in the stench of your death
You burn down our homes,
send your vultures to pluck the flesh from our bones
You think you are innocent that we will buy your lies
The truth
it does not scare you, ah but it should
The Truth
will haunt you and expose you and take you to your grave
we are not human slaves
we are born to be free
our hearts will sing a new melody
our hearts will rise in perfect word
the heartbeat of Heaven the drumbeat to which we march
Do as you will, that much is clear
only as in Heaven so on this Earth
God has the victory and Jesus comes first.
Lightning strikes, not once, not twice
But I feel no fear,
I see the cruelty as you dream of mass death
Thou shalt not kill never mattered to the likes of you
evil is a bottomless pit and the pit is open
wage your war with the God of all Creation
wage your war with nation against nation
go ahead and do what you must do
Jesus Christ of Nazareth is watching you.
So much pain and too many tears
