Listen to the tales and romanticize
How we follow the path of the hero
And boast about the day of when the rivers overrun
How we rise to the height of our halo
Listen to the tales as we all rationalize
Our way into the arms of the savior
Feigning all the trials and the tribulations
None of us have actually been there not like you

Ignorant fed within the congregation
Gather around spewing sympathy spare me
None of them can even hold a candle up to you
Blinded by choices hypocrites won't see
But 'nuff about the collective judas who could deny
You were the one who would've made it
You little piece of the divine
This little light of mine a gift you passed onto me
I'll let it shine to guide you safely on your way
Your way home

What are they gonna do when the lights go down
Without you to guide them all to Zion
What are they gonna do when the rivers overrun
Other than tremble incessantly
High is a way but our lives are upon the ground
You are the light and the way they only read about
I only prey heaven knows when to lift you out
10,000 days in the fire is long enough
Your going home

Your the only one who can hold your head up high
Shake your fist at the gates sayin
'I have come home now
Fetch me the spirit the son and the father
Tell them their pillar of faith has ascended
It's time now my time now give me my wings'

You are the light a way that they will only read about

Set as I am in my ways and my arrogance
Burden of proof tossed upon the believers
You were my witness my eyes my evidence
Judith Marie unconditional one

Daylight dims leaving cold fluorescence
Difficult to see you in this light
Please forgive this bold suggestion
Should you see your Maker's face tonight
Look Him in the eye look Him in the eye and tell Him
I never lived a lie never took a life but surely saved one
Hallelujah it's time for you to bring me home
