The Apprehended - No Blood, No Gospel lyrics

Artist: The Apprehended

album: Defining Home


The way I see it, I've got three choices, each with their own sacrifices, but my life is my own.
Naturally, I can't use this for my own selfish gain.
But this path has been too cold, this internal war is breaking me down
I'm no messiah, but for you I can try
This is why I'm...
()
...Taking the steps towards something new, brothers behind me it's me whose got something to prove
Give up your life, (Only one can be true) Just do what's right (Fight or they'll destroy you)
All for this family, this pursuit never ends. They are the reason I'm endlessly seeking the truth
I'll carve my own path. Dogmas are meant to be broken not shared; yours hold me back and this is why I'm...
I'm no messiah, but for you I can try
Indecision doesn't work on the frontline
It's hard to think with a sword in your hand
I'm scared, I'm tired and I'm stronger than before
On my side I've got the right to defend
The Great Commission
This song was written on the cusp of two great bands and role models Set Apart and Sent by Ravens choosing to call it quits. These bands are kind of heros for us as a band and I'm sure for many other bands all over the southeast. This song is sort of a declaration of our ministry as a band. It's not one of preaching or telling you why you should love God. My goal as a song writer is to share my struggles and problems (many faith related; asking God for guidance and such) in hopes that someone out there identifies with them and can maybe hear some assuring words come from me. We don't preach our faith because we don't want to misguide anyone. This song is basically saying "I love God, but holy crap I am NOT perfect. Lets hang out." The "city" is christian music. The "titans" are guys like SA or SBR. The "brothers" are guys who carry the torch far better than I, specifically the fellas from My Brothers Keeper, Me and the Trinity, and Come What May. Examples amongst my peers. Kay done. Enjoy.
I'm so sorry, I mislead you...
I fear there's something that should be said before I get too ahead of myself.
There's been a demon on my back since this whole thing started.
I'll tell you right here, right now, this was never about my pride.
If I was called to stop this train, I would, but my city still needs me.
"Don't give up on yourself my son, solid resolve will get you through this one. But you've got a good heart and thats all i ask..."
How can I assume to speak for the Lord? I went to sunday school, I know what he's looking for.
If the boy i was met the man that I am, what kind of questions would he have to ask me while I'm alone in this filthy alleyway?
"Your clothes are new but they don't fit quite right..."

I am a "Little Christ." I am a little bit off course.
I am a lion in a city of angels
A place of peace and I'm a child of war
I'm so sorry, I mislead you...
I'm a coward. Is this what you need from me?
I'm a coward. I was everything I swore I'd never be.
When the titans of the city found me alone, they took away my sword and they took away my pride
But they took me in...
This role, heavy as it is, weighs lightly upon my unworthy head.
I have brothers to carry this with me. They remind me to stand eternally.
I'm so sorry, I mislead you...
I'm a coward. Is this what you need from me?
I'm a "Bad Lion." And you'll know me when I grow my wings.
