You've lulled yourself into complacency But the safety you feel is all in your head Step down from your pulpit Look and see the generation that you've left for dead Look and see the generation that you've left for dead Tear the veil from your eyes And see that this is a war of attrition No Father, tear the veil from their eyes Give me strength to light the flame that will burn their world (Tear the veil from your eyes, and you will see the generation you have left for dead, you have chosen to sit and watch from the sidelines, you have forsaken your purpose. Everywhere I turn, my brothers, my sisters, all your children have closed their eyes, they have Lost their focus, their hearts have grown cold, just say the word and I will light the flame that will burn their world) You have fought the battle and bear the scars And they turned you away cause you're dangerous But look around, you are not alone You have fought the battles and bear the scars And they turned you away because you're dangerous But look around, you are not alone We will live forever! Too many times have I seen someone come to you for guidance Only to find a congregation who have turned their backs Have you forgotten it's not your place to turn his children away? You cast judgment on the scars that mark them YOU WILL BURN Father, everywhere I turn, your people have closed their eyes
