Peering out his window into a massive crowd
He could see a million faces screaming hate out loud
Without a clue or reason he held his sword up high
He tried to fight the masses, then laid his head to die
To die, ohh!!
Hung above the city like the smoke that fills the air
Arms stretched out above us and no one seemed to care
His death was planned to save us, but the blind have not yet seen
The evil that 's around us, the evil that 's between
And though we cannot see him
We know that he 's still there
Fighting for our freedom
To show that he still cares, oh!
(Solo)
He 's coming back to take us to the promised land
He 's not gonna stop the pick the lawyers from the bands
He knows if we 've been waiting paying for our sin
And he 's the one who will lead us there and god will let us in
I 'm not saying you should go to church
Or listen to the priest
Just remember he 's still out there
He 's gone to fight the beast
