Apologetix - Look Yourself lyrics
Look, if you have one God And one offer of eternity That exceeds everything you ve ever wanted With one opponent Would you ask for it? Or just let it slip? Yo He parks his Chevy, needs sleep, heart is heavy He's thought about repentin already, sun is setting This church is not having service it looks almost dead as he Drops by but they keep on the electric What a ghost town, he knelt down, don t know how He opens his mouth just the word "Help" comes out He's broken down, yet his heart is open now The lost one's found, winds up homeward bound Heads back to his family Look who's home, daddy And, look, he's so happy, he chose his own path but he Won't give up babbling, he broke his old habits they Don't seem so bad to me, hope it's some fad Like new Coke or Shaun Cassidy Don't need no radical holy-rollin' masochist quotin' old passages That's what'll happen then, though, he'll go fanatic-y Better go batten the hatches and hope it don't last Chorus: You'd better look yourself in the mirror You know that you wanted to get to Heaven when you're old Do you really want God or not? Is it yes or no? It's awful soon you say, but what is the right time? You'd better look yourself in the book since you own it In Romans, you never read it yet I know You only get one shot to God, here's your chance to go His offer to you may come once in your lifetime His soul's been saved even though his whole family's gaping This world is blinded by Satan -they can't see As he moves forward - it's true George Orwell The moral of the story is truth's ignored, emotion's most important He'll only cause problems, the Holy Ghost got him He blows him all over, he knows the call's on him Goes to go show his bro's at his Alma Mater, "Welcome Back, Kotter" They know he's just one of their own, so don't bother Said, "Go home you barely know the Our Father" Well hold the phones cause he knows it holds water If those don't want him no more he'll go farther And he moved on and he read the Romans Road till he knows it cold and shows others He's on his soap box and his tone becomes bold, I suppose he's no martyr But the weak grows strong and the dumb becomes smarter Chorus: You'd better look yourself in the mirror You know that you wanted to get to Heaven when you're old Do you really want God or not? Is it yes or no? It's awful soon you say, but what is the right time? You'd better look yourself in the book since you own it In Romans, you never read it yet I know You only get one shot to God, here s your chance to go His offer to you may come once in your lifetime No more names, I ve been changed, but you call it strange To tell my mother 'n father truth off the true God's page I was saying if you ve been sinning pursue God's grace I've been shooed off and spit at like Rudolph the Reindeer But I kept shinin' a lamplight that I can't stifle You best believe somebody paid for my revival Call the name of Christ and go find a Bible Fact is I can't deny that I'm liable To die if my plans collide with life's iceberg Like the Titanic cause man needs God and you can't go buy a lifeboat And it's no movie; there's no surprise survivors This is high tide and you're tryin to row hard And you're hittin' deeper waters tryin' to flee piranhas I see Plus seaweed's got ya caught up between PBJ Otter and Bikini Bottom Babe it's not a submarine you're on and you must believe the Son He'll save you on the spot, He's comin ready or not I've got to be to the point just like a nail on the cross I formerly was lost, horrendously frail and fraught With questions I know how Mother Hubbard's dog felt- famine, drought Mom, I love you but this world has got to know I cannot grow cold when Hell is hot So please don't go into shock Let the family talk This way is their only opportunity to find God Chorus: You'd better look yourself in the mirror You know that you wanted to get to Heaven when you're old Do you really want God or not? Is it yes or no? It's awful soon you say, but what is the right time? You'd better look yourself in the book since you own it In Romans, you never read it yet I know You only get one shot to God, here's your chance to go His offer to you may come once in your lifetime You can do anything if He gets inside you, man |
