Lyrics
Hey man, please don't make a sound
Take a look around
Can't you see what's right in front of you
Have a little taste
No more time to waste
You don't wanna get left behind cause it's all coming down right now
How hard is it to see
Put your faith in me
I sure wouldn't want to be chained
To the wrong piece of wood
You should get where you belong
Everything you know is wrong
Come on, sing along, everybody now
God given
And He gave us sight
And you'll see the light
And it burned so bright
Now you know we're right
In His kingdom come
And thy will be done
We've just begun
We're the chosen ones
Wait, step into the light
How can this be right?
I'm afraid we're gonna ask you to leave
Guess you cannot win
With the color of your skin
You won't be getting into the Promised Land
This is just another case
You people still don't know your place
Step aside, out the way, wipe that look off your face
'Cause we are the divine
Separated from the swine
Come on, sing along, everybody now
God given
And He gives us sight
And you'll see the light
And it burned so bright
Now you know we're right
In His kingdom come (and the Father and the Holy Ghost)
And thy will be done
We've just begun
We're the chosen ones
