The Message Lyrics by Archetypes Collide

Foundations

2014

[Verse 1]
This is who I am
Take it or leave it; my life's in your hands
I won't delay and hide
Remove this mask that's hiding what's inside
No more gimmicks, no more hyping it up
I'll step forth and show what I've got
It's time to face the music, or better yet
Let the music face it's life or death

[Pre-Chorus]
Hype will fade, substance stays
Hype will fade, substance will stay

[Chorus]
Hear me out on the words that I say
You've gotta give up this life to save your own life
To give yourself is to gain everything
To cut off the branches that won't provide
To die to yourself and be made alive inside

[Verse 2]
I've waited long enough
I've waited long enough
I've waited long enough
It's come time to put it all on the line
And if the road gets rough
Just know this dream will never die
Will never die

[Chorus]
Hear me out on the words that I say
You've gotta give up this life to save your own life
To give yourself is to gain everything
To cut off the branches that won't provide
To die to yourself and be made alive inside

[Breakdown]
This is my message to the world
This is my message to the world
This is my message to the world
This is my message to the world
Yeah!
All I want if for you to see the life I live and to live it vicariously

[Chorus]
Hear me out on the words that I say
You've gotta give up this life to save your own life
To give yourself is to gain everything
To cut off the branches that won't provide
To die to yourself and be made alive inside

[Outro]
Oh-woah-oh
Make me alive inside
Make me alive
Make me alive
Make me alive
Make me alive
Make me alive!
Make me alive!
Make me alive!
Make me alive!
(Make me alive!)
(Make me alive!)
(Make me alive!)
(Ma-...)
