I'm There

If you think that you're alone on that cold dark night
If you've never found a home anywhere
If you turn to find you're holding the wrong end of the knife
Just know I'm there

Hey Black Jesus keep us all from dying
Send your spirit on the ones who seek the truth
Pick them up and put them in your pocket
And make sure that they never get the boot
There’s a place where no one is singing
Nothing is wrong if everybody’s free
No one pays for anything worth stealing
These people doing wrong
Should never find a home
Put ashes on their tongue
Cover up their sun
For me
Hey Black Jesus I can see you’re trying
To show us how to love upon that tree
Shame the will of crooked ones conspiring
To kill the poor and take from you and me
There’s a place where no one is laughing
Somethings wrong it’s plain enough to see
Folk will kill for anything worth having
These people doing wrong
Will never find a home
Put ashes on their tongue
Cover up their sun
Set their work undone
Kill their first born son
For me

I wanna feel like I’m floating in Eden
I wanna held to the spirit and the heat
I want to fight for the people I meet
But I don’t want to stay gone too long
I want to bust through the sun and the shade
I don’t want to cruse creators create
I want to swallow the wind and the rain
But I don’t wanna stay gone too long
I couldn’t come close
If I never looked back
My emperors cloths
Are under attack
I wanna speak to the plans that We’ve made
I don’t wanna live in a video arcade
wanna turn down and blow out the flame
And don’t wanna stay gone too long

Just trust me
You say
I take your hand
We go someplace
It’s wild I know
The weight of distress
And what lay unknown
Take it easy now
Take it easy for me
Take it easy now
And we’ll make this briefs
Jesus won’t change his name for nothing
There’s fire below
Fire outside
And Fire indoors
We’re all something to see
Just lying undressed
our head s full of leaves
Take it easy now
Take it easy for me
Take it easy now
And we’ll make this brief
Jesus won’t change his name for nothing

Trust You

I’ve felt brand new since my eyes have seen the light
I whisper in the night and I am heard
No more abused since you came into my life
I’ve given up the right to refuse you
Now when, when I see the stars swimming across a Black Sea
I’ll know my souls not in control, I can rest and take a nap in the backseat
Cause I trust you
I trust you
There have been times I didn’t want to carry on
I needed another song to fill the air
But in those times when my heart is filled with pain
I need only shout the name of one who cares
Now when, when I see the stars swimming across a Black Sea
I’ll know my souls not in control, I can rest and take a nap in the backseat
Cause I trust you
I trust you

You Found Me

When I was a young boy
The fields were soft and green
No cannon spark could wreck my heart
The night was torn into
My faith had legs to stand on
The poets made me weep
Twas off to die the heavens high
Had room at calvary
Then with the will of some would later
Call a mustard seed
I found you
Or you found me
The blood that surely bought us
had pennies left to spare
My clothes are torn but my spirits sure
There’s something at the end
A far off distant country
That darkness could not reach
Its crystal waves lay waste the things
We strive our lives to be
Then with the will of some would later
Call a mustard seed
I found you
Or you found me
