Defender
God, are you listening
Their unfounded fears have become my despair
God, are you even there
Cause I'm not feeling seen right now
By you or anyone else out there
Why wont they just listen to my story
Why does everything have to become a fight
It's just not right, it's just not right
God, please hurry to my rescue
God come quickly to my side
Those who are out to get me
Let them fall all over themselves
Those who would relish in my downfall
Lead them down a blind alley
Give them a taste of their own medicine
God, did you hear what they said
They say I play the victim
That this pain is self inflicted
But you are the only one
The only one who really knows me
The only one who can defend me
You know the deepest details of my story
You know this battle isn't mine to fight
Its just not right, its just not right
God, please hurry to my rescue
God come quickly to my side
Those who are out to get me
Let them fall all over themselves
Those who would relish in my downfall
Lead them down a blind alley
Give them a taste of their own medicine
You told me to pray for my enemies
But, you've got to know I'm just not there yet
You invited me to pile all my troubles on your shoulders
And you would defend me from assassins and traitors
You told me to pray for my enemies
You've got to know I'm just not there yet
You invited me to pile all my troubles on your shoulders
And you would defend me from assassins and traitors
But God, please hurry to my rescue
God come quickly to my side
Those who are out to get me
Let them fall all over themselves
Those who would relish in my downfall
Lead them down a blind alley
Give them a taste of their own medicine
God, are you listening
God, are you listening
God, please hurry to my
God, come quickly to my
Those who are out to get me
Let them fall all over themselves
Their unfounded fears have become my despair
God, are you even there
Cause I'm not feeling seen right now
By you or anyone else out there
Why wont they just listen to my story
Why does everything have to become a fight
It's just not right, it's just not right
God, please hurry to my rescue
God come quickly to my side
Those who are out to get me
Let them fall all over themselves
Those who would relish in my downfall
Lead them down a blind alley
Give them a taste of their own medicine
God, did you hear what they said
They say I play the victim
That this pain is self inflicted
But you are the only one
The only one who really knows me
The only one who can defend me
You know the deepest details of my story
You know this battle isn't mine to fight
Its just not right, its just not right
God, please hurry to my rescue
God come quickly to my side
Those who are out to get me
Let them fall all over themselves
Those who would relish in my downfall
Lead them down a blind alley
Give them a taste of their own medicine
You told me to pray for my enemies
But, you've got to know I'm just not there yet
You invited me to pile all my troubles on your shoulders
And you would defend me from assassins and traitors
You told me to pray for my enemies
You've got to know I'm just not there yet
You invited me to pile all my troubles on your shoulders
And you would defend me from assassins and traitors
But God, please hurry to my rescue
God come quickly to my side
Those who are out to get me
Let them fall all over themselves
Those who would relish in my downfall
Lead them down a blind alley
Give them a taste of their own medicine
God, are you listening
God, are you listening
God, please hurry to my
God, come quickly to my
Those who are out to get me
Let them fall all over themselves
