	Story Behind the Song Lately I have been feeling down and my spiritual walk has been a struggle, and this song has come of the back of that. If I wanna have a close walk with God then I gotta take up my cross. It's as simple as that, because I've found that when I try to do things my way then I fall into depression - but my joy comes when I look unto the Lord. Thanks again to Math for the chorus - it sounds ill - fits the song perfectly!! Thanks also to Aaron (A-Ron) Wiebe for production - http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/268/beatshackproductions.html Lyrics A public outcry, I'm out by, the church gates, it's Thursday So what am I even doing here in the first place? Amidst commotion, I sit quoting, the daily news If you can't save yourself, how'd you hope to save me too? I'm making do, with scraps I receive Relapsing into dreams, that all colapse into the sea Perhaps I'll be, someone to look up tp I'm stuck too if it wasn't for me it'd be just you My pride denies those about to curse me Do I hide or reside in a house of mercy? Let me name perish, this fame is devillish To me life and music's the same, I'll never quit I claim benevolance, my claims hold no weight Don't they, now you know, seem so fake Hope may, be all I've got left If I were to try to climb, you could watch my death You can't see me, you can't be me Til you take up your cross, you can't believe My stand is weak, my hands diseased Take up your cross, if you believe me I'm all alone now I've got no home now My whole world has stopped, still I need to slow down Close round, listen I got a story to tell About religion and fiction, gory and hell What about Tha Pastor? Well you know he's Welsh But have you ever seen him at his lowest ebb? I'm lost without the Lord, slaughtered by the swords Of self greed, help me, cornered by it all Finally I gotta face it find my place and take it Hide my face, it's wasted denying faith is hatred Still, chasing dreams, still chasing nightmares If I find what's mine, I'll take it right there Saying silent prayers do you hear me Lord?? Awakening blindly scared, I'm clearly caught On barbed wire, my hands are bloody Outstreched, found blessed, if someone could love me You can't see me, you can't be me Til you take up your cross, you can't believe My stand is weak, my hands diseased Take up your cross, if you believe me I got responsibilities, sailed foreign seas It's quiet, pause to breathe, hear God caling me Dear Lord, do you even know how much I suffer? My son, do you even know how much I love ya?? Are you telling me you're so narrow minded After all I've done for you, you now show blindness Lord, it's alone I'm blind, alone I find Well to be honest, I'm alone most the time My son, you ain't alone, your concern's misplaced I'm right here with you, you just turned away I've heard you pray, you've got the church to save And I'll give you the power if you search my ways My faith's refreshed, questions gone The Lord's given blessings and lessons in this song I don't deserve you Lord, why'd you keep me alive? No you don't deserve, that's why Jesus died You can't see me, you can't be me Til you take up your cross, you can't believe My stand is weak, my hands diseased Take up your cross, if you believe me
