Intro Track to Painful Inhabitance.

lyrics

(Verse 1)
First we must begin with the obvious…
All of us have been born into this consciousness.
Thrust into the realm of existence, like grains of dust that can’t really say from where the wind carried us.
Free to examine how this bondage has managed to bind us in chains made of lies from the past.
Now as time shutters past us, we strive just to utter simple words capable of aptly describing something that we can’t fully picture, remiss to deduct what the sum total is, of the pieces we’ve been given.
Eager to move forward, marching ever toward a destiny characterized by mediocrity.
Shades of monotony stain all that we’ve strained to achieve. Leaving a path scattered with broken pieces.
Hoping that we can rebuild some of the things we’ve destroyed but alone there’s no way we can fill the void.

[Chorus]
Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
The enemy can’t steal my breath. I bleed and sweat.
Need to get to the end of this road. I can’t see it yet.
I will fear no evil as I press deeper through trials with no regrets.
My joy remains as I glance through the lens of this painful inhabitance.

[Chorus]


[Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
The enemy can’t steal my breath. I bleed and sweat.
Need to get to the end of this road. I can’t see it yet.
I will fear no evil as I press deeper through trials with no regrets.
My joy remains as I glance through the lens of this painful inhabitance.

(Verse 2)
Born into innocence, or is it just we’re born with intentions we haven’t committed yet?
And if we’re destined to eventually sin then is it coincidence or deliberate?
We step into it, learning to walk, but we often stumble and fall like little kids.
So ignorant, we lead lives that literally define what it means to be hypocrites!
Anger, rage, pride and hate are the primal emotions we show by the time that we come of age.
So wrapped up in what we want that we forget to be thankful for what we’ve got.
Taking for granted, even the breath in our lungs, ignoring the one who gave life to Adam.
Knowing right from wrong, we choose lies over truth, and despise anyone who tries to show us proof.

[Chorus]


[Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
The enemy can’t steal my breath. I bleed and sweat.
Need to get to the end of this road. I can’t see it yet.
I will fear no evil as I press deeper through trials with no regrets.
My joy remains as I glance through the lens of this painful inhabitance.

(Verse 3)
Voices scream for equality & justice for all but our concept of justice is busted & flawed.
We justify everything constructing laws to fulfill all of our lusts while we just ignore God.
We rally for minorities & lobby for women, while we’re murdering millions of innocent children,
The streets are flooded with the blood all of our victims, while at the push of a button we fill our minds with filthiness.
HD screens filled with pornographic images, we’ve twisted the definition of what a marriage really is,
We’ve transposed America with the Kingdom of Heaven like poisonous bread grown from our own leaven.

[Chorus]


[Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
The enemy can’t steal my breath. I bleed and sweat.
Need to get to the end of this road. I can’t see it yet.
I will fear no evil as I press deeper through trials with no regrets.
My joy remains as I glance through the lens of this painful inhabitance.
