YAH! Come be my self control!
YAH! Come be my self control!
I know
what’s on your mind
You’re fairing with the wind
I want to be kind
Closed off
Locked up chained deep inside
I’m piercing through your blockades
Impressive try
If you don’t
Trust anyone
You don’t
Trust me
I am the word (I am the word)
I am the word (I am the word)
I am the word (I am the word)
The loudest you’ve heard
All were dead
Awakened into this life
To leave the former behind
And be renewed in the spirit of our minds
Awaken my dear!
But if you don’t
Trust anyone
You don’t
Trust me
I am the way (I am the way)
I am the truth (I am the truth)
I am the light (I am the light)
And I’m wielding the spirit
As a knife
YAH
COME BE MY SELF CONTROL
YAH
COME BE MY SELF CONTROL
Onyx stones and red life lines
Yeshua the sacrifice
Read receipts and lies that hide
Don’t cast the corner stone aside
JOHN
I can hardly speak the words I did when I was young
My addiction and vocabulary flees
But if communication’s goal is being understood you see
I have accomplished what I’ve set out to complete
I am young but I’m still a live
Been undone but still I am kind
To be the human being I’ve worked so long and hard to be all that I need is to let myself be free
ABBEY
I’ll say sorry please forgive me all that I have done
My fiction and the estuary springs
I believe the humane thing would be to honor the deceased are we responsible to settle our defeats?
I am young but I am still bright
Been unsung but still I am kind
To be the useless thing would be dishonoring the chief
All that I need is to forget the past two weeks
I will be free (14)
No one comes before the Father but by me
No one ever sees the Father they see me
