“I need some answers! I need reasons to believe You signed your name on this And threw me overboard You always were my solid rock Unwavering foundation Ball-and-chain on my ankle It’s pulling me under the tide.” Hot stone in cold water It gathers sons and daughters “O Father, let walls come crashing down now.” The walls then start bleeding And Solomon is singing He’s singing, oh but you got the words all Wrong This time, she’ll make him proud To be the enemy Lock himself in cell And throw away the key He’ll bow before the God But God, he can’t come clean And that’s just how it is That’s how it’s gonna be “I got some answers I got reasons to believe,” (I’ve got no reason to believe!) “You got your head up in the clouds And your feet caught in the window We’ll burn right up unless we pay for sins And set your world on fire Pack your hopes and dreams and aspirations Come and kiss the sun and then run.” They started a fire Built to burn all inspired Inspired by all buy complacency Witch trial in misplay; She burned for him And he looked away Turned and whispered “You gotta learn somehow.” This time, she’ll make him proud To be the enemy Lock himself in cell And throw away the key He’ll bow before the God But God, he can’t come clean And that’s just how it is That’s how it’s gonna be This time, she’ll make him Proud to be the enemy He’ll bow before the God, But he’s got no reason to believe “Oh father, I just wanted to Let you know You might be running from the bush But I haven’t lost my hope So, when you turn your back And head for the road Just know that I forgive you But, SHE won’t.” (But, SHE won’t!) This time, she’ll make him proud To be the enemy He’ll bow before the God He’ll bow before the God! This time, she’ll make him proud To be the enemy Lock himself in cell And throw away the key But God, he can’t come clean And that’s just how it is That’s how it’s gonna be This time, she’ll make him Proud to be the enemy He’ll bow before the God But he’s got no reason to believe
