Damaged by Design

We cannot be moved
We've stood by for too long
Watched as friends became enemies and tore us apart
Complacently we watched our country dissolve
No longer one nation under God
We took it in through a looking glass
But now we're taking it back
Step aside we've got nothing to lose
But we've got everything to prove

Wait for the love of God
Before we go and throw it all away
It won't fix itself in time
It was damaged by design
This is what we've made

Smoke lines the horizon
Proof of what we have done
Enemies line our borders evidence of what's to come
We have dug too deep, we can no longer see the sun
The smoke from these fires is killing everyone
The gravity of our mistakes brings us to our knees
Praying for forgiveness from a god in which we don't believe

Together we can move mountains
But we have squandered our strength
Overpowered by the bonds of corruption
Prisoners of our mistakes
So now we fight the rising tide
And the waters are getting deep
We've got numbers on our side
And we will not retreat

Wait for the love of God
Before we go and throw it all away
It won't fix itself in time
It was damaged by design
This is what we've made

Rise

Open up your eyes
See what I see
Put your fists up in the air and rise with me

Wait for the love of God
Before we go and throw it all away
It won't fix itself in time
It was damaged by design
This is what we've made
