But I [C#] said I'd rather die than get mine, now I'm here.
No [G#] fear, one man with a story to tell.
Dear [D#m] God, where were you when I needed it?
When I fucked [F#] up and repeated it?
When they set the bar and I [C#] exceeded it?
My life is like a book that they've been judging by a [G#] cover, but I've never took the time to fucking read the shit.

[C#] How do I believe in a concept where I speak to a [G#] man I've never seen with my own two eyes?
[D#m] How do I know that religion wasn't made just to [F#] separate the world and create a world of God just to [C#] keep us in these chains
