Song #4 An Endless Struggle

How long

Will you stand there?

Get up and walk

Stop collecting dust

This nation

Has stood still for to long

When will you break free?

I am yelling the truth

Yet everyone walks right by

This was once a sacred nation

Lead free by the One who saves

Now you sin to His face

Do you feel no remorse?

I know

What they will face

I've seen their acts myself

My heart is breaking

My bones are aching

Your land will be undone

When will you burn your statues?

How long can you live in denial?

I've seen this city corrupt over time

It blackens everyday

Can you not hear the sounds of the army?

They've come to take what's yours away

Even as you repent

You do what you've done before

Time and time again

You're not fighting it off

You welcome your own demise

You've kept in your homes

I've warned and my voice has grown hoarse

How can I mourn for you?

When you never even cared

I cannot find one honest person

Nobody lives by the Word

And you given up your God

Traded life for death

Why can't you see through the lies?

You can't turn back you've had your chance

Your defeat will be short

The graves won't

Have the time to be filled
