Standing in the Fire

Standing in the Fire

Being different, being true, no one really sees you for you

Fitting in, can't be done, always on the run, baking in the sun

Woman against woman, man against man, all think they're the solution

Wrong is wrong, right is right, I will stand my ground until the desolution

Speak my faith, live right, can't fight it, can't hide it, it's only just begun

A different culture, a different religion, a different skin, shall this war never end

I will see the light, I will not be brought down, standing in the fire

Knowing my savior is waiting to bring judgement and justice for all who have faith

My every desire is to have my people free, free from the enemy in the shadows night

The raven will fly, as the sky swallows up the demons let the cool waters run, let them  sayeth unto thee

The slaves be free, no longer standing in the fire
