In a shell of bitterness 
Covered in self righteousness 
In the wake of evidence 
You're clinging to your stubbornness 
Drinking from a dirty cup 
Well you turn your head 
And drink it up 
But the nasty deeds you hide away 
Will all be seen on judgment day 

No letting go 
Of the old traditions 
Paving the road 
With a strong conviction 
And the blood flows 
For a true redemption 
But you cannot see that you've gone too far 
Cause you live your life 
With a hard heart 
Were you looking for an angry king 
To help you conquer everything 
But the day will come 
When you'll drop your sword and cry 
Blessed be the One who comes 
In the name of the Lord 
 
Snake in the grass crack in the glass 
You beat down the head 
Of the poor and hungry 
Whatever you do to the least of these 
You do it unto Me, unto Me 

No letting go 
And the blood flows 
For a true redemption 
But you cannot hear 
What the Savior said 
Cause your heart is hard 
And your faith is dead 
And you cannot see 
That you've gone too far 
Cause you live your life with a 
Hard heart
