SINNERS TO SAINTS LYRICS

1. Altar Ego

Hate consumes me, hate is the disease

2. Angels & Demons

Lifeless, alone, deprived.
I lost all sense of innocence when
success enticed me to the roots of my sins.
Failure to grow, a lack of inspiration.

How can we grow?
How can we grow if we starve the roots that we made?
How can we grow if there’s nowhere to plant a seed.

These thoughts are resonating as I lay on a bed of nails.
Fragile hands, blinded by my ego,
pondering how I accessed these two shades of grey.

I can hear demons fighting for me.
I’m laying on my death bed and now I see
I can hear angels fighting for me.
There’s a war for my soul, and this is what was said.

“Give in”. I hear the demons calling,
“Give up, You’re not worth His love.
You’re life means nothing to Him.
He’s a liar and your life he’s ruined."

"Enough". I hear the angels calling,
"His Love, is what kept me going.
Your existence is the proof I need.
My God’s alive, and you’ll never break me."

So long
my body shakes and quivers
while faceless entities surround this deathbed I’ve made.
It’s hard to act when faced with all my mistakes,
but His love washes my past away.

Am I no better than demons?
His love, His Grace, His constant, everlasting reign.
I’ve failed to live according to His will.
I stand before my King as judgment’s placed on me.

Build up your kingdoms and hide your treasures.
You decide the life you lead, but you can’t take it with you.

3. The World's Collapse

We sought to find you as we called out your name,
but you'd run, run, run, always pushing away your home.

This life means so much more than your pride.
True love opens the door.

Running back and forth.
Confused uneasy eyes.
With Him in sight, live the life you’re supposed to live.

Are you content with yourself? [x2]
Are you alive?

This is love when needed the most.
This is love, it won’t fade away.
This is love, when needed the most,
we're calling out your name.

Rise up from below
in this desolate place where you sit all alone,
for you’re not dead inside.

Love lost in the gravity of animosity.
Fall to your knees!

I've seen the world fall around me. [x2]

Fall to your knees and embrace your humility.
You made your world fall collapse.
Are you proud of yourself?

You've run away from your faith.

This life means so much more than your pride.
True love opens the door.
Running in circles won’t redeem the lies that you hide.
There's hope in love.

This is family, this is love.
This is what we're made of

4. Fractures

Stop living so safely.
Tear down your walls.
There's a world outside of them
waiting for you to conquer it.

Stop living so safely.
Love, and forget what it's like to break.
Learn from your mistakes
and let the world crumble in your wake.

These are the remnants of my ideology for you and I
(for you and I)

I swear it'd be perfect
I swear it'd be worth it
If you could see like me! [x2]

You say you're a dreamer,
that you live for your dreams,
but you don't stay awake
long enough to chase them;
long enough to make them happen.

My eyes are getting heavier
And the lights are getting brighter
with every second we wait;
We waste.

Stop hiding behind the safety of mediocrity.
The world is yours to take,
so love, and forget what it's like to break.

I don't wanna wait for you
to realize that what we've got going
is something much better than the lies you hide behind [x2]

Live your life!
Live your life,
don't let the world decide for you.

5. Vanquisher

Everyday I wake up and I thank you
for what you have given to me,
For what I am has nothing to do with me!

In a sea of endless love
these waves come crashing down on me!

Today everything we have made will go to waste.
But, in Him we are everything we need to be.

Take away what I've made, I will stay faithful.
Take away what I've made, I will stay faithful.

You took away everything I am, I will stay faithful.
I am stronger than the greatest army you could mount against me.

Hallelujah, I'm saved by Your grace [x2]

Hallelujah saved by Your grace
by your grace (woah)
Hallelujah saved by grace
By Your grace! [x2]

6. Life, Like Statues

I never said goodbye.

I anchored vessels with silence
thinking i had time, but i was wrong.

I watched the sunrise.
And the stars, they watch me sleep at night,
so safely, they keep me from forever fading.

And I'll pray you're in a better place.
And i swear that i don't wanna be the one to bind you,
i don't wanna be the one to hold you back.
You're worth so much more than that.

I never said good bye,
and it's the last time
i build up walls just to pass time.
Reel in the anchor and chart the waters.

Open your eyes
and learn to breathe when the air sets fire.

I watched the sunrise.
And the stars, they watch me sleep at night,
so safely, they keep me from forever fading
and light the way back home.

Go

I swear you'd be proud. [x2]

And i'll pray you're in a better place.
And i swear that I don't wanna be the one to bind you,
i don't wanna be the one to hold you back.

Rest in peace!

And i'll pray you're in a better place.
And i swear that I don't wanna be the one to bind you,
i don't wanna be the one to hold you back.
You're worth so much more than that.

7. Testify

[Instrumental]

8. Vessels

Say when,
tell me go and i will go
to wherever You send me.
You are my everything.

I live by faith and i'm ready for anything.
Until you break you will stand for nothing.

How many times will you
conquer the world looking for purpose
only to find that you've
lost your soul?
And you still think it's worth it?

So you wanna run your mouth?
Well I'll give you something to talk about

The earth will tremble at the sound of his voice.

Every saint has a past,
every sinner has a future.
I will not let the things i've done
define the man i know i'm supposed to become

My God, make me a vessel anchored by faith.

9. Peace//Keeper

Salutations
to the one who
made a pact along the lines of a fashion vice.
With jewels so cunning saints cower.
Behind the eyes of the blind
there sits a portrait on the stand
with a label that reads
"a sodomizer with no hope of a family."

There's nothing left
The bandages of the broken have come undone
There's nothing left
Why do we bow before lust?
Rip your eyes out
Outer beauty’s guilty pleasure is so, a sin.
Lusts the thread that will sew us in to bondage.

Your disposition leads to disbelief (Disbelief)
A cold deceit flows through your eyes, despite disaster.
The seams you’ve reaped have been sewn.

Congratulations
to the one who
carries his cross in the midst of failures.
Trial after trial we succumb to stumble.
There’s no erasing time.
But turn away from our troubled faces
bearing His mark in the darkest of places.

I surrender myself
to something greater.
Show me peace of mind.
Peacekeeper, faith over fear,
I hear You calling.
This is my prayer.

Illuminate the darkness.
With this I start inside.

Eyes open wide.
Illuminate the blind
The key is in who you believe
We bow to one God
Surrender all your pride
And see the promise of eternity

10. The Greatest Of These

How can we love when
apathy runs through society's veins?

Pouring champagne
just to watch a drug addict
lead his wife and kids to a broken home.
That's no way to raise a family.

They separate and force the vows they took
to fracture like bones,
leaving the kids on their own
to live in a fatherless home.

How did we end up like this?
We kiss with deceit on our lips.
The whispers, the secrets,
we act like it's natural
but I don't believe it.

I don't believe it,
that there's no hope
for those who feel defeated by a broken home.

A whore and the attention she craves
to fill a void that a loveless father made.
Revenge is the sweetest of things
when there's hate on your lips

I don't buy it.
No, not for a second.
This isn't who you are
You're better than this

Hidden bruises to cover the fact
that a father abuses his children.
Hiding bruises to cover the fact
that your daddy still beats you.

How did we end up like this?
We kiss with deceit on our lips.
The whispers, the secrets,
we act like it's natural
but I don't believe it.
I don't believe it,
that there's no hope
for those who feel defeated by a broken home.

11. Charisma

This is an endless struggle.
You put your life on the line.
We've run for miles and miles,
losing ground and wasting our time.

Oh Great Healer!
Can you raise us from the dead?
Our hearts are hardened.
We've been misled!

I feel like giving in.
I feel it slipping away.
I feel it under my skin.

So show me the way!

We turn to You in times of sorrow,
when desolation fills the air!

I am the prophet of salvation!

He controls the movement of the mountains.
He commands the creatures of the ocean!
Repent or perish with this nation.
Transcend yourself to find salvation.

Only with true faith will you walk upon the ocean.

12. In Spite Of You

Lonely and broken,
I've found that
silence was golden
in the age of kings.
But you'd stay silent
to withhold the pain you were feeling

I'm sick of watching
you sell yourself short.
Together, we'd take a city like Rome.
But i'll take the world,
i'll take the world alone.

You're walking a thin line
Stonewalling closure with evasive accusations.

Stop testing the waters and just dive in.

You were my best friend [x2]
Don't look back it's in the past.
You knew this wouldn't last.
Your silence broke me in the end.

Your actions spoke louder than your voice could scream.
The only thing you taught me was how to leave you.

Take a look and maybe you'll see.
The difference between you and me
is that I kept trying, and you gave in
you left me rotting so I don't wanna see you again.

I for one will never see the point in
just forgetting everything about us.
But you have shown me
that nothing's worth waiting for you!
