In the Wake Lyrics
In The Wake
Often when I try to define the line, I just find a margin that extends so wide
I confide in just relating the distance, missing the point, “so the gap is big”,
How are we trying to unite the difference, crying to be united, it’s this
Defying the force that keeps us apart and I know it’s just a start
That will grow, it’s got to unfold
Living in the wake of a brand new age
We’ve got much to show
I hope we can be what we want to be, guided by the virtue that’s inherent in you and me
Seeking to make better the world and humanity, give back to the world what has been sent providentially
Come be what we are all called to be, follow the path that you seek
Remember you learn from somebody’s lead, nurturing inside a seed
Chorus
I know it won’t be as it used to be, living in a time that we find in its infancy
Defining itself within the pages of history, Jump into the wake were you can dive in the mystery
I see coming a great future and its coming trying to make us all see
Potential that manifests what is best and I hope along your quest, you will…
Chorus
Hey
Tell them no lie, tell them no lie
For they will inquire what’s behind you weary eyes
You must tell them why, you must tell them why
For they will require from you honesty and truth
We search to find a reason, we search to find a proof
Your look’n for healing and find yourself confused
Put your mind back at ease, now let’s take it slowly
We’re in this together, you’ve always got me
Open their eyes, open their eyes
So they can awaken to the beautiful and wise
Open their minds, open their minds
There is no limit to the boundless and divine
Chorus
We will find our way, our way
If You Really Want It
If you really really want it, really really want it
I know you can get it, if you really want it
You must give your all, get back up when you fall
If you really want it, I know you can get it
You must be cool collect and strong
You must be sure the path your on is truly the right one
get ready here we come
Chorus
You mustn’t sleep on it my friend
You must stay on it till the end, to destiny attend,
receiving what’s been sent
Chorus
Now just remember, You must be patient and be clear
you must walk the path with care, keep pushing be prepared
see now we’re almost there
Chorus
You must be cool collect and strong
You must be sure the path your on is truly the right one
get ready here we come
Chorus
What Have I Done
Such two extremes, how good and bad seem
And stuck in between, you and everything
Long you’ve observed, all the facts confirmed
However long you stare, you’re never quite prepared
What have I done
Tell me what have I become
Pressures I feel
Pressures that I must relieve
You’ve got your pride, so many choices to decide
And as they stack up high, they still must be made right
Every knowing is a matter of foresight,
But un-prophetic eyes are left in the night
Chorus
What have I done, I’ve sealed my fate
It’s already done but this I must face
What penalty or measure disciplinary
Can reconcile this
Chorus
Let me hold it up right hear while I’m filled
And I know I haven’t been quite clear now I will
There was once a life here and now it’s gone
Still things just keep moving on
Chorus
No Council
No council no, how can you determine what should stay or should go
No Council no, how can you determine this one
Nicodemus gone, Enoch gone, cast in the fire and flames
James and Thomas gone, Mary gone, lost in the pages of time
What is your reason for your deceiving yourself and everyone?
Whacha thinking, you are believing and are conceiving what’s best for everyone how conceited
We see your writings in such a crisis thanks be to the reformation, how revealing
Now they are reading, and they are seeing war against the opposition
Chorus
Treaty of Resurrection, all gone
Roman Constantine, great king presiding, leaving us his great donation
Falsified when Lorenzo read them and saw the problem leading to intense division and revision
Pages start bleeding when you are reading seeing how the tables were turned throughout history
Years of deceiving, cover up mystery in the name of orthodoxy
Chorus
We see the reason in your decision given your position and pomp and your vision
Sabbath on Sunday, Christmas, your Vulgate changes that remain to this day, pagan mysteries
John twenty-one, Mark sixteen nine on, ecclesiastical redaction filled with faction
At top we see an archon revealed, concealed so much more we won’t know
Chorus
They would burn this song, this song cast it to the fire and flame
If they had heard this one, this one, silence to the opposition
Open Up Your Soul
Things are getting hard to judge from what I see
Things are hard to judge from what I feel
Every sense seems to be just some vain notion
But when I look within the veil opens
Please opens up your soul
Then we can finally know
Please open up your soul
Then we can finally know
The way that things appear are not as they seem
The things that people say and don’t really mean
As for this masquerade it plays out commonly
But what we really need is some honesty
Chorus
Find what you have seeked
Make your soul complete
Don’t let the system get you down
You are on the brink
Chorus
War Monger
People people are we, stricken to be at the feet
Of some malevolent leader whose dressed like a sheep?
He smiles and waves to great cheers, and everywhere he’s revered
But if caught in the right place he’d tell you straight to your face.
I am a war monger.
I stand stronger, watch me conquer.
War is my intellect, my sole regard.
Prepare for war.
Spread out, spread out I am the new man in town
You must of hear my renowned, you see it’s all over town.
Premeditating his crime, he waits for just the right time.
Believing that it’s his fate he descends on the place.
Chorus.
Now he takes his place among the birds of pray.
He compares himself to the pinnacles of history.
He makes his way, even forces of today
Cannot stop him yet, and here he comes again
Why didn’t we see this thing, why didn’t we see this coming?
How could we forget all of the symptoms showing?
It’s some kind of denial that has made us blind.
How could we forget, how were we fooled this time.
Chorus.
