(Concern about the issues we face and the hope that we can change things for the better)
This race we're running is out of control
The pace keeps changing are we losing our hold
Faster and faster still faster we go
There's only one thing that I want to know
Is this, is this the final hand
Are we living the life of the damned
Like a storm across the land
It's not what we had planned
Each passing day the puzzle grows complex.
The missing pieces could soon reflect
The love we have lost here could cost us our fate
If each passing day our greed grows with hate
Is this is this the final hand
Are we living the life of the damned
We'd better understand
It's not what He had planned
Ignorance masquerading as wisdom, something's gone wrong with the system
We compromise beyond all reason and never face the change of season
As the desperate hour draws near, the vision becomes so clear
We've stepped beyond that line, I can't believe my eyes,
Please tell me they're telling me lies.
Is this, is this the final hand
Are we living the life of the damned?
Like a storm across the land, it's not what we had planned
It's not, the final hand
We can break the chains of the damned
It's time we take a stand; we can change the final hand.
