Say Your Prayers

Look at you now just standing there like you think your something.

The lights are up and the crowd is looking your way,

just waiting for what you have to say.

So go ahead, bud, give a little taste of hypocrisy,

maybe a hint of blasphemy;

whatever you're preaching, it isn't Me.

You wanna walk with me, do ya'?

You wanna walk with me?

Well, if you love me then just love me.

Don't you give me pretty words.

Lay your life down at the altar.

Let me see how serious you are.

These people don't look to me no more.

They've got their idols and various poems.

With lust in their eyes, they crave for more.

Take the place with the corporate carnivores.

Keep your focus 'cause the day will come

when everyone will give account for what they've done.

Make me proud.

Make me proud, my son.

You wanna walk with me, do ya'?

You wanna walk with me?

Well, if you love me then just love me.

Don't you give me pretty words.

Lay your life down at the altar.

Let me see how serious you are.

Look at this broken world.

Look at my children go.

Look at this broken world.

Look at my children go.

'Cause they're already gone.

Sing to me the life song.

Look up.

Say your prayers on the steps of the capitol.

Look up.

Say your prayers on your knees.

Look up. Say your prayers.

Look up. Say your prayers.

You want it to be like you always thought it would;

all you seem to accomplish is the opposite.

You wanna walk with me, do ya'?

You wanna walk with me?

Well if you love then just love me.

Don't you give me pretty words.

Lay your life down at the altar.

Let me see how serious you are.
