Song lyrics

It burns deep down inside of me
We have ourselves to blame
Not questioning
Accepted as the truth

Debate this fight it's just cause
The facts do not support theirs
To liberate a people
And rid them of tyrant rule

Is it time to make a change?
Are we closer than before?
Can we help them break away?
Are we profiting from war?

It's time to make a change.
Intrigued, got your attention
Deceived, since the inception
Our brave fight for what reason

Compelled, can we clean up this mess
The loss of loved ones a perverse request
They continue the same rhetoric
These derelicts that profit, win or lose

Is it time to make a change?
Are we closer than before?
Can we help them break away?
Are we profiting from war?

It's time to make a change?
Time for change
Fight the fear, find the truth
Time for change

The only thing that I believe
Will help us see this through is faith
Pray they will forgive, forgive our arrogance
So we can make it right, right what they have wronged

See you sweat. Unexpected, controversial?
Get used to it, things are gonna get personal
Your sympathy, a pitiful display you stutter
Your empathy means nothing if there is no honor

Responsible of this you are incapable
We implicate, incriminate, exacerbate, too much at stake
Our fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers, sons and daughters
Forced, perpetuating their ideals, a mindless act to stay the course

Is it time to make a change?
Are we closer than before?
Can we help them break away?
Are we profiting from war?

Is it time to make a change?
Are we closer than before?
Can we help them break away?
Are we profiting from war?

Is it time to make a change?
A change from what it's been?
Can we help them break away?
Is our patience wearing thin?

It's time to make a change?
Time for change
Fight the fear, find the truth
Time for change


Prophets of War

It burns deep down inside of me,
We have ourselves to blame.
Not questioning,
Accepted as the truth.

Debate this fight it's just cause,
The facts do not support theirs.
To liberate a people,
And rid them of tyrant rule.

Is it time to make the change,
Are we closer than before,
Can we help them break away,
Are we profiting from war?
It's time to make the change.

Intrigued,
Got your attention,
Deceived,
Since the inception,
Our brave,
Fight for what reason,
Compelled,
Can we clean up this mess,
The loss of loved ones,
A perverse request,
They continue the same rhetoric
These derelicts that profit,
Win or lose.

Is it time to make a change,
Are we closer than before,
Can we help them break away,
Are we profiting from war?
It's time to make a change.

Time for change,
Fight the fear,
Find the truth,
Time for change...

The only thing that I believe
Will help us see this through is faith.
Pray they will forgive,
Forgive our arrogance,
So we can make it right,
Right for they have wronged.

See you sweat
Unexpected,
Controversial,
Get used to it,
Things are gonna get personal,
Your sympathy,
A pitiful display you shutter,
Your empathy,
Means nothing if there is no honor,
Responsible,
Of this you are incapable,
We implicate,
Incriminate--Exacerbate,
Too much at stake...
Our Father, Mothers,
Sisters, Brothers,
Sons and Daughters,
Forced
Perpetuating their ideals,
A mindless act,
To stay the course.

Is it time to make a change,
Are we closer than before,
Can we help them break away,
Are we profiting from war?

Is it time to make a change,
Are we closer than before,
Can we help them break away,
Are we profiting from war,

Is it time to make a change?
A change from what it's been
Can we help them break away,
Is our patience wearing thin?
It's time to make a change.

Time for change,
Fight the fear,
Find the truth,
Time for change.
