Alethophobia

In seeking no counsel at the mouth of the Lord
The wisest men make themselves fools
Struggling to answer these questions themselves
Wondering why their end is so cruel

So think, are you fearful of hearing the truth?
Would you know it if it were so?
The ones that are there are not even aware
Their ignorance is all that they know

They're hypnotized by the light
And mesmerized by the sound
And paralyzed by the sight of what is going down
I see it clearly now
And I am not afraid
Of the truth anyway

If I wear the full armor of God
I'll find that faith is my shield
The sword of the Spirit, The Word of God
These are the weapons I wield

So if I stand upon the field of battle
With this one weapon in my hand
It's given me victory over my enemy
Even if I die where I stand

I'm not hypnotized by the light
Or mesmerized by the sound
Or paralyzed by the sight of what is going down
I see it clearly now
And I am not afraid
Of the truth anyway

So think, are you fearful of hearing the truth?
Would you admit it if it were so?
Will you break loose and acknowledge the truth
Or continue to go with the flow

And be hypnotized by the light
And mesmerized by the sound
And paralyzed by the sight of what is going down
That's not us anymore
And you never can tell
Who'll wake up from sleep and see the lies for which they fell
I see them clearly now
And I am not afraid
Of the truth anyway
