War on Faith - Christian Rock/Alternative - Lyrics Critique
by Jayson Blacksmith
(Nashua, New Hampshire, USA)
Zoned in on what you think is true
Afraid to look at what is askew
Despite the world that’s bending around you
The time for change is long overdue
We skip over what we think aint real
And keep our minds focused on our true ideal
Your soul sees what you think is surreal
But in time reality will be revealed
Hatred is rushing through our brains
Anger is rushing through our veins
For far too long we’ve been bound by chains
Break away and burn the remains
It’s time we march on what we truly fear
Until our true identity is clear
It’s time we march until we persevere
Until all our troubles will disappear
Chorus:
It’s a War on Faith!
Can we truly believe in what we cannot embrace?
It’s a War on Faith!
Chasing after tracks that left no trace.
It’s a War! It’s a War!
It is not something that you can simply ignore!
It’s a War on Faith! Yeah
It’s a War on Faith!
Don’t fall to the tricks not true
It will mislead and overtake you
And then it will control and subdue
The person that could have come true
Your soul is something they cannot steal
But your faith is one thing you cannot conceal
They’ll strike you at you Achilles’ heel
And disembody you without any appeal
The best way to avoid the eternal pain
Is to let it happen and do not strain
As they will fear and fear the reign
Of the one who no one can maintain
And now it’s time to win this game
Life and love is what we come to claim
There is no worry there is no shame
In the lion that may not be tamed
Chorus

I had a few more lyrics but after reading them through they seemed either cliche or just bad... so I sorted it into more of a song.
