  • You give us dreams to wake us up
    You say, take pride in the provision
    When all we see is the face of defeat you say
    Take pride in the provision
    My future's finally found me, figured me out
    It's painful, it's tough, I never saw it coming
    Come as it may, because all of this life is a lesson
    I'd rather learn than end up in a cold covered up dark grave

    These are the words of a man who finally let go
    These are the goals of a man who's laid it all down,
    Losing it all made me realize

    I am the victim, the culprit, the casualty, and the 'cause
    Losing it all led me to you, to you
    Losing it all led me to you, I'm sick
    I need sight, I need help, I need you, and I'm not getting any better

    I am the deceiver, I'm not getting any better
    I'm the thief, the whore, the murderer
    It's times like these, It's times like these
    you forget to remember who you are
    The way up is down, truth is found when life throws you out
    And kicks you to the curb
    I'm just as much the problem as the man behind bars
    He did with his business what I do in my heart
    You wronged me, you crossed me, I'll never let it ruin me
    Lessons are learned deep down within my heart, in my heart
    The worst men make the best stories come true
    The past is a part of me
    But not who I am

    I realize my identity is not in
    What I've seen but in what I believe to be true
    I know what I need now
    All that was lost is not lost
    Even the worst of mankind can't disrupt sovereignty

    You've given me this nightmare to wake me up
    You say, Take pride in the provision
    You've given me more than enough
    You say, take pride in the provision Writer/s: BRENT GERALD RAMBLER, DUSTIN CHAD DAVIDSON, JOHN BENJAMIN BRUBAKER, MATTHEW WILSON GREINER, WILLIAM JACOB LUHRS
