No Excuses (feat. Greg Minier & Mike Phillips) 03:35
lyrics
buy track
Verse 1 You always turn around When things don’t go your way Problem solved and you move on You forget a price was paid Chorus There’s no excuses in the Games that you play Self-serving motives, spineless You walk away Verse 2 You and God, you get along If he answers your prayers You call it grace, but spit in his face You’re gone; you never really cared Chorus There’s no excuses in the Games that you play Self-serving motives, wake up Don’t walk away

Last Breath 03:05
lyrics

Verse 1 I live this suicidal dream Ingest the chemicals Cause they’re all that I need Inhale the poison deep into my lungs The hangman is laughing As the noose is strung Chorus Addicted, convicted Sentence me to death I’m gonna be so high When I take my last breath Verse 2 Freedom, I celebrate in chains I’ll drag you down Til nothing remains Mama, aren’t you so proud Another needle in my arm There’s no escape now Bridge God, are you there? I’m at the end of my despair Save me, save me I’m so deserving of death But still you gave up your life I’m so deserving of death Chorus My savior, redeemer Bring me to life Christ has set me free I don’t have to die I don’t have to die I don’t have to die

As Far As The Eye Can See 03:11

Verse 1 Love ain’t blind To the seeds men sow Ignorance is the logic of control Bridge Through the glass I darkly see The human tragedy Chorus As far as the eye can see Blind is humanity Verse 2 Selfishness In us all Final motive Since the fall Can’t you see

Blow The Past Away 03:52
lyrics

Verse 1 If I could take a shotgun To these memories Like a high dose of chemo To eradicate disease Maybe an AK Let’em bleed out on the floor When peace of mind is left behind What good are these thoughts for Chorus Blow the past away Erase these yesterdays Blow the past away Nothing left to say Verse 2 If you can line’em up please I can mow them down In the sea of forgetfulness Where I can watch them drown Staring out of vacant eyes I’ll bring you to your knees On the inside you die And no one hears you scream

Time Bomb 04:17

Verse 1 Temptation in my veins Like I’m playing some losing game One misstep into misery The painful truth comes Crashing on me, yeah Chorus As I pay for my father’s sin I find myself in the lion’s den As I pay for my father’s sin This ticking time bomb, time bomb Comes back to haunt me again Verse 2 There’s nowhere for me to hide I can’t escape this thorn in my side The loneliness is all I see I pray once again Oh God, save me, yeah

Just Like Home 03:24

Verse 1 How many times have I stumbled And you’d catch my fall How many times have I ran away Then back to your arms Chorus I’m holding out my heart again Longing to be healed I’m running to my father And it feels just like home Verse 2 Why do I keep looking backwards To where I’ve been I must keep pressing onward I won’t get fooled again

Redeeming The Time 04:26
lyrics

Verse 1 Falling on deaf ears Staring into the sun A heart that’s grown so cold It can’t feel Is it foolish pride Or pearls before swine But still they all cry For something real Chorus Redeeming the time In this evil day Seek and you’ll find Only one name Redeeming the time In this evil day Screaming out life Never ashamed Verse 2 His spirit calls Out into the fields Calling for his children To come home He breaks every chain Frees every slave A love that always stays You’re not alone

Songs In The Night 03:30

Verse 1 I hear the voices Whisper my name They’re clothed in darkness Leading to flames You won’t leave me here to die Your word is true I’ll sing praises in the night to you Chorus Holy, holy is the Lamb My Savior, my God Verse 2 How many times You’ve rescued me From my own self I fall on my knees I now offer up my life I am renewed I’ll sing praises in the night to you Verse 3 Called from shadows into light The chosen few I’ll sing praises all my life to you

Shine On Me 03:18
lyrics

Verse 1 The darkest of nights were upon me No shelter from the midnight sky Did you hear the voice that was calling Into the light Chorus Shine on me Let the glory of heaven Shine the light to see Shine on me Like the dawn breaking open Makes this life complete Shine on me Verse 2 The demons that haunted my past When pitch black covered up my soul The mystery that those shadows cast Are now exposed

Say Goodbye 03:51
lyrics

Verse 1 A day is coming This flesh in which I dwell I will lay it down Just an empty shell For those who are left grieving You know I must move on God will dry your tears After I’m gone, yeah Chorus I hate to say goodbye When the end’s before my eyes When my time arrives And I lay down this life I’ll have to say goodbye Verse 2 Will it even matter Will anyone still care Will someone shake their head And say that life’s not fair For those who are grieving For a loss in your life Lift up your weary hearts God can dry your eyes, yeah Bridge Eternity’s coming The chains falling from me and you Set your eyes to the one who Eternally loves you It’s true Yeah, it’s true I’ll kiss this world goodbye

Human Being 04:20
lyrics

Verse 1 The unknown road before me My past behind So tired of my misery The choice was mine It was mine Chorus Let me take you back again Show you all that I’m feeling Steady as it goes to ten I’m a human, being me Verse 2 I let my world grow small But I had to breathe Make a stand or take my fall I had to believe to be free Bridge You tried to tell me I was wrong Like I had been the fool all along But then the light shined down on my face There wasn’t enough room for me and you In this place
