THE GUN SHOW LYRICS

1. An Overview

This restless heart step into light, breach the darkness.
A startled mind cease your sleeping, steady your breathing.

This restlessness longing for better circumstances.

(Bring me before whom I adore with a heavy hear and a trembling voice.)

"Being blunt is something that has never come easy for me and controversy
is not in me naturally. Conflict is a word I’d much rather avoid, but the
things I’ve seen leave me no choice. That the truth of the gospel cannot
be ignored. I will not sit back and watch the lies perpetuate. There are
problems that believers and nonbelievers in Christ choose to ignore. I am
tired of it sick and tired of it. So with this discontentment in my heart
I will do my best to bring these lies out of the dark and if it be Gods
will this restless longing for better circumstances will open someone’s
eyes. I am just a humble seed barer I can only plant those seeds. May the
almighty send many, many to water them for me."

2. Discontentment

I am so sick and tired of being tired.
This new trend of fitting God into our beliefs.
Screw putting God in a box
we’ve molded him into a scapegoat
that feeds our own selfish plots.

You have no excuse
your ignorance is nothing but a lie.
You claim to believe in the power of the Word of God but your actions show
their just children’s stories in your mind.

But the antichrist is among us.
You see them every day in every heretic
that tries to lead God’s people astray.

Now would you be so blind
and take the words of man as truth
without looking to Scripture to see if he’s right.

But what happened to seeing first the kingdom of God
and not trying to build up your own empires.

But salvation can’t be bought.
They will try and sell you his grace
for an extra fifty in the tithing cup.

They’ll preach and prophecy,
tell you anything
to feed their money hungry eyes.
You can travel the world,
spend every penny you have in every church on this globe
to believe in every word your told,
but hell is still where you’ll go.

The lake of fire will swallow you whole.
God owes us nothing.
UH!
BLECK!

Stop taking the name of Christ
as a way to amass your wealth.
How selfish must we be
if we think we deserve Gods grace
when the truth is that we,
we deserve nothing but death.
You claim to follow Gods will
but instead you follow a perversion of the Gospel brought on by mans pride
and selfishness.

I am so disillusioned by the fact that in such uncertain times
the modern day church looks more to the world then its trust in Jesus Christ.
You have become like a whore
only wanting to hear what tickles your ears.

Is not the Bible the complete inspired Word of God?
Its not just half-truth, half-story.
What would be the point?
You can’t just pick and choose what you want to follow out of it.
Take all of It or none of It.
Don’t be lukewarm.
Its that simple church.
Wake up and be the body of Christ.
Wake up!

When will the body of Christ shed its selfish skin.
When will the body of Christ be lead by the Spirit again?
When will we surrender all?
When will we surrender all?
When will we stop living life as if God isn’t watching.

3. Negligence

[feat. Andy Atkins of A Plea For Purging]

Take a good look at your life.
Stare long and hard into the mirror and tell me what you find.
Are we truly living the lives that we boast about all the time or is this just a status symbol like that cross on your neck that you hid behind?
What do I truly believe?
Am I living a lie?

What are we thinking?
Should we not hunger for Gods word more than once a week?
We are called to study more than once a week.
To show thy self approved, more than once a week.
We are called to study more than once a week.
To show thy self approved, more than once a week.

Know what you preach.
Don’t let your words be misleading or there blood will be on there hands.

Don’t take the easy way out.
Don’t let your laziness rule you.
What’s the point in believing in something?
Don’t let your laziness rule you.
If you don’t even search to find the truth.
Just like everyone around us.
You think your church is the only group of true believers.
You’ll claim you did all these things in God’s name, but in the end he’ll deny he ever knew your face.

Why is church tradition held onto so dearly if its not even rooted in the scripture we so desire for?
You say you really want to change this world.
Repent and get that plank out of your own eye first.

Pagan!
Christianity.
Pharisee!
Christianity.

But it’s all the same.
UH!

Your beliefs are rooted in false tradition.

I am rooted in a generation that is too ignorant to seek truth.
I am rooted in a generation where it’s the blind leading the blind astray.
Where was this relationship compromised and where did these lies come from?

Where did all these lies come from?
Where do we go from here?
History shows us the crooked paths that we now walk upon.
Come from?!

4. The Adegan System

My time ill spent!

So much wasted on the thought of, so much wasted on the thought of you.

So much wasted on this physical attraction
this filth that plagues my sight a deep asphyxiation from flesh and blood.
I have slipped so far away I have fallen to the wayside,
my flesh is the essence of weak but my spirit is made whole by Him.

What we don't realize,
what we don't see,
is that God has already set us free,
He has unlocked the chains,
using His blood as the key.

Oh Jezebel!
I will break thy spell!
Oh Jezebel!
you are done!
Oh Jezebel!
I will break thy spell!
Oh Jezebel!
you are done!

You are nothing more than a monster that infects the Earth,
you have taken the lives of many a strong warrior,
I have stood here long and had it up to here,
through much prayer will come my victory.

I stand because you have no power over me.
I stand because you have no power over me.
I rebuke you!
I rebuke you!
Your hold on me is no longer there.
I rebuke you!
I rebuke you!
you have driven a wedge between me and my Father.
RRRAAAWWWW...

You say we stand together,
but I fall alone,
but when we're together I feel like nothing can go wrong,
you seem so innocent,
with such contagious eyes,
but beneath the skin lies a monster inside.

A monster inside!
INSIDE!

You have lived as a prostitute,
with many lovers,
would you now,
return to God.
You have lived as a prostitute,
with many lovers,
would you now,
return to the Father.

Repent!
Beg for forgiveness
UH!

Repent, beg for forgiveness.
Repentance is completely turning from your sin,
to a life devoted to purity,
because the Father is pleased by your obedience.
So always keep your eyes focused on Him.
Heed my warnings.
Don't ever turn your back on God

5. The Girl

You are beautiful,
every curve and intricate detail is crafted in a delicate mold.
Form the softest touch of your skin
to the warmth of your gentle heart you are truly beautiful.
You were uniquely made
so stop judging yourself based off of other girls looks.
Wake up and open your eyes for your emotional insecurities will be the end of you.

You will let those negative thoughts in your head fuel your actions and dictate how your life is lead.
Founded on lies upon lies of how you think the world will view yourself.
The more see the more you think the more you find.
That you believe your self-worth is based off of.
The attention that you get from the people in the world around you.
But that leaves your self-confidence lacking.
With those painful emotions running away with you
but how can anyone like you if you can’t even like yourself?

So you look for attention in all the wrong ways.
Wanting love but lust is all you’ll find.
So what reaction do you expect to get from your lack of modesty?
Disrespect yourself and disrespect is all you’ll see from men.

You are precious in the eyes of God
you were never met to be the object of lust.
You are precious in the eyes of God
you were never met to be the objects of lust.

Please know that those insecurities are nothing but lies.
They come in many forms and they’ll lead you to believe you’re not good enough to have a happy life.

Don’t give in to lies!

Don’t put so much weight on seeking after relationships.
I charge you O’ daughters of Jerusalem.
By the gazelles or by the does of the field.
Do not stir up nor awaken love until it so pleases.

6. Apocryphal

Guard your mind
don’t let it guide your life.

Guard your mind
don’t let it guide your life.

I sing To The Heavens
without a though a thought without a thought.
Endless pointless preaching without a book to back them up.
What have we become?
A distressful one.

Who is this God we are lifting up.
Idols replace the sacred one.

Who is this God we are lifting up?!

Who is this God we are lifting up.
Idols replace the sacred one.

(Guard your mind
don’t let it guide your life.)

Who is this God we are lifting up.
Idols replace the sacred one.

(Guard your mind
don’t let it guide your life.)

Who is this God we are lifting up.
Idols replace the sacred one.

Idols replace...
Idols replace...

7. Currents

We come in the name of the Almighty,
and we ask that his presence is made known,
in this place,
Holy Spirit make haste,
let not one person leave unchanged,
so who all hear may know,
that the glory of the Lord is shown,
through the power and authority of His word.

So Lord let your Spirit flow through this place,
like the mightiest of rivers,
I stand here willing oh God would you please speak through me.

There is such an authority found in the name of Christ,
A power given to us that we are not worthy to posses,
So in the name of Jesus Christ I stand bold in that power and come against
anything that isn't of God,
and in His name anyone who hears this song with an open heart in
concordance with the mighty will of God is delivered,
from sickness, pain and depression or anything that Satan will use to bind
our minds and trip us up to detour our hearts away from, GOD!

So through the spirit we walk in His might,
because of Faith and not by sight.

How powerful is it when you believe,
in a love you can't quite comprehend,
with physical means you cannot abound,
But through the beautiful name of Christ,
an undeniable presence surrounds.
So now you shall, feel His presence,
as His name passes from my lips,
so now you shall feel an undeniable presence,
as His name passes from my lips.

YOD! (י)
HE! (ה)
VAV! (ו)
HE! (ה)
(יהוה)

Holy Spirit,
Make your presence known.
Holy Spirit,
mend the hearts that are broken from the pain that this life bestows.
Holy Spirit,
make us whole,
Holy Spirit,
make us whole again.

8. The Honest Truth

Where are you,
God why do I feel so alone.

And I find myself here yet again,
shackled, like a dog returning to his vomit.
Complacency has taken hold of everything that I am once again diluting my purpose of which I live with laziness.
Is how it begins the steady decline of the state of my mind has gone on so long that I don’t even realize that something is wrong.

My passion has gone.
My life has become the very thing I try so hard to help people get away from,
An empty hallow Godless shell.
My will is damning me to Hell.

My life my wants and my will are damning me straight to Hell.
My life my wants and my will are nothing without You.

As I drift away in thought my heart shows me,
dreams of how I wish things could be.
As complacency grips me my flesh regains its control.
Cause God you never left me but it was I who turned my back on you
when I got lazy and stopped spending time with you.

But how can a relationship stand when there is no communication.
I have become the very thing that is keeping me from,
feeling the mighty presence of God.
EERAH!

For I am the only thing keeping me from seeking God.
Nothing will happen if I am too lazy.
We must first learn to seek God before anything else in this world.
If we don’t wanna lose our mind,
in complacency.
Any longer!

It should be as His scripture says we must work out our salvation with fear and trembling before the Lord.
It is not once saved always saved,
that is the mindset of fools.

Work out your salvation with fear and trembling!
Work out your salvation daily before the Lord!

9. Founded Upon The Seas

The Earth is the Lord's and everything in it,
the world and all who live in it,
for He founded it upon the seas and established it upon the waters.
Everything in this world has meaning,
all life designed with a specific cause,
Order flows about in wait for the second coming of the son of God.
All with life believe in your hearts that the Lord our King has risen,
let everything that has breath come Praise his holy name.

And I heard the voice of the Lord,
Calling me to take up arms,
He said the time is at hand this is my Master's plan to not bring peace but a sword.

Brothers and sisters,
we must make war,
for how selfish are we if there is a disease but we don't share the cure.

Do not fret because of evil men,
or be envious of those who do wrong,
for like the grass they will soon wither,
like green plants they will soon die away.

Sing to the Lord your God,
Sing to the Lord your God,
Sing to the Lord your God,
Sing to the Lord your God,
Sing to the Lord ye saints,
Praise His holy name,
Praise His holy name for His anger lasts but a moment,
but His favor lasts a life time,
Weeping!
May remain for a night but rejoicing comes in the morning.

Oh how I love you,
Oh how I long for you.
Oh how I love you,
Oh how I long for you.
Oh how I love you,
Oh how I long for you.

I long for you,
Fall on my knees,
take everything,
upon my knees,
give life to me,

And He has written us a guideline,
the way to everlasting life,
He has come to bring us life,
more abundantly,
so let us not take for granted what you’ve done for us,
the prophecy,
You've paid the ultimate cost!

And He shall come riding on donkey's back,
and those who went ahead,
and those who followed shouted Hosanna,
and all the world shall proclaim Hosanna in the highest,

Hosanna in the highest
OOOHHH!
Hosanna in the highest
Ho-San-A
Hosanna in the highest,
Hosanna,
in the highest,
Hosanna.

10. Authenticity

Lets get this straight that everyone around you is not what they seem.
We are all living a double life,
what our spirit wants the flesh denies.

Why is it that we as Christians can go through the motions so perfectly.
That our speech is a well oiled machine and the lies just come so
naturally.
Wear that mask, like its who we really are inside.
Who are we fooling, this world can tell a fake from initial conversation.
We wear that mask, in hopes that no one finds out what a mess we are.
Who are we fooling, only people at your church believe you.

Wipe that smile off of your face, what’s the point of being so fake.
Everyone of us has pain, do we really trust in who we claim.

We need a transformation.

Your pride is bringing you to the point of lying to yourself,
pretending that your better than everyone who doesn’t believe like you.
But how does puffing up your chest portray a love you say you know.
A love that came to this Earth to live as flesh and blood.
So He could dwell with the same kinds of people,
you won’t even acknowledge,
we’ve got it backwards.
OH!

We must all learn to live transparent lives.
For we all are sinners by nature.

We’re no better than anyone else.
We all know where we've come from,
all that remains is a choice.

We all know where we've come from,
all that remains is a choice.

We all know where we've come from,
all that remains is a choice.

We all know where we've come from,
all that remains is a choice.
