[00:00.00] The People Who Share My Name -Being As An Ocean
[00:06.761] Listen Up
[00:07.742] These are the things I've been dying to say to you
[00:12.490] I won't engage in conversation
[00:16.669] Littered with self-righteous rage
[00:18.701] Because before the words were out of my mouth
[00:21.547] You already judge what I have to say
[00:24.533] If you ripped me open
[00:27.625] Instead of judging my surface
[00:30.852] Through pretense and hidden purpose
[00:36.471] You truly find a heart
[00:38.307] Stamped with the name
[00:40.442] Of whom I give my service
[00:54.184] Division
[00:56.823] Despite best intentions
[00:59.972] Dissonance
[01:02.153] None truly exists
[01:04.239] Except that
[01:06.641] Which was created
[01:09.685] By biased hands
[01:18.642] Love has called me out
[01:20.761] Of who I've been
[01:24.336] To bring me to the right hand
[01:26.869] And dine with Him
[01:30.461] So keep slander from your tongues
[01:33.605] Lest you be wrung
[01:35.75] And found to be wanting
[01:38.98] Of the Love that has redeemed everything
[01:42.110] Division
[01:44.812] Despite best intentions
[01:47.972] Dissonance
[01:50.54] None truly exists
[01:52.241] Except that
[01:54.738] Which was created
[01:57.579] By biased hands
[02:08.256] Give grace freely away
[02:10.299] Instead of claiming for yourself the blessings of YHWH
[02:14.399] You twist the tool that was meant to light the way
[02:18.58] Into a creature of your own
[02:20.483] Peddling hate
[02:23.889] The only abominations are those we create
[02:29.876] You have ripped apart the broken limb from limb
[02:32.953] You have separated parents from their own kids
[02:37.556] How dare you speak of grace
[02:39.605] While you wave your signs of hate right in our face
[02:44.611] All the lives you've ruined
[02:47.818] The souls you've turned away
[02:50.173] How are we supposed to fly
[02:52.135] If you clip our wings
[03:08.266] This is not Ecclesia the way He meant for it to be
[03:12.37] Keep bastardizing his name
[03:14.264] One day you'll be set free
[03:16.822] From this religion
[03:18.513] All the false glory and fame
[03:21.213] Look in the eyes of a broken man
[03:22.939] And keep telling him he's the one to blame
[03:27.57] And you wonder why I'm hesitant to share your name
[03:29.957] Because you've missed the point completely
[03:32.107] And I hate your hate
