Capo: 2nd fret
[Intro]
Em Am(2x)
[Verse 1]
By the Emword and command, mortal man can stand, son of man is the manna manifest
In the flesh and the Amblood, and the bones and the rocks, in the valley of the dead
The dry bones are gonna walk and talk
EmTo the rhythm of the saints y'all, to the rhythm of the saints
And AmI paint it red to remember the dead, who layed down their lives for the truth
And the Emseed that is buried takes roots, and this ignorant world will have proof
See I reAmmember the sins of my youth, the path and the madness of unrestrained pleasure
The Emheavier trip it made the heavier debter in the deepest of dark without a wing or a feather
The Amspiral closed in like a cage, like a cage
A Emmaze that's amazing for days turns to rage if the page it refuses to turn
And the Amhopeless will hope the book burns when the lesson it returns, but the lesson is still unlearned
See I Emyearn to discern if a life can be earned or is given as a gift to the dead
See I Amread and I bled and I fed to the full my soul on the sickest of sickness
EmSeeking the light of a saviors witness, a way that one day that I might forget this
AmBut slave master won't permit this cause I'm a hooker I'm his mistress
And wEmhen I look for freedom he puts more chains on me, strangles my hope so that I live like a zombie
Am (Em second time)
What masters house can this be, that when I look for freedom he still deceives me (2x)
AmIf there's a God I scream, "Answer me!" I didn't expect an answer to be received,
EmWoah oh oh yAmeah (He received me)
[Chorus]
He saidEm, you must die, to be set free, living in the kingdom of God eternally
AmOpen up my eyes so that I can see, and die with a cry revolutionary
EmEvery man and woman is a witness, and we will never forget this
TAmruth, Truth
Em C G D Em(2x)
Woah oh yeah, Woah oh yeah aah aah ah ah (truth)
[Verse 2]
UndiEmluted, undisputed, never to be substituted, or uprooted, fully suited for the war
AmIt's a modernization of a timeless metaphor, and by the boomerang, we bring the beats back more
What Emfor man, do we work exterior to core, or begin it in the spirit of the Lord
Now Amyou could pull the chord, but the people still sing it acapella
Marching to the beat I hear their feet are in the Emcellar
Fear, not the world cannot stop what must begin within you and Amme
A fire wind, holy hymn, beautiful diadem, hidden within positively pure prism Emrefraction
Every color's broken down, harmonize with my eyes spectrum
In the Amend bleeding into the One, to the source, to the beautiful father of light
All the Empressure and pain produces perseverance it's purged by the flames, without interference
ProAmduces a hope, in the glory of God
My God, I Emam your son, and I know that you will finish the work that you've begun
Homespun, grassrAmoots, spontaneously suits the purpose, and we don't deserve this
LEmife, Life!
EmWoah oh oh yAmeah hmm
[Chorus] (2x)
He saidEm, you must die, to be set free, living in the kingdom of God eternally
AmOpen up my eyes so that I can see, and die with a cry revolutionary
EmEvery man and woman is a witness, and we will never forget this
TAmruth, Truth
Em C G D Em(3x)
Woah oh yeah, Woah oh yeah aah aah ah ah

A maze that's amazing for days turns to rage if the page it refuses to turn

And the hopeless will hope the book burns when the lesson it returns, but the lesson is still unlearned
