Lyrics
I’m Not Sure
© November 3, 2005 Stanley Loh.
VERSE 1
You always wanted the springs of the Nile,
But murky waters, came from denial,
You always say “unfair”,
To everything…
CHORUS
I’m not sure what you want,
But I can already see,
That anything I propose
Is pure heresy…
To your God,
To your faith,
Can’t obtain your honest praise, you fear disgrace,
Why must the world endure,
You say it’s pure?
I’m not sure, I’m not sure.
VERSE 2
You always wanted the victory stand,
Suppressing friendships, binding their hands,
You always took from them,
It’s how you think…
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE
The black gold you withdraw will pay for all the guilt inside,
Your templars blare the sound of your God preachin in the light,
Let non-believers taste your might.
INTERLUDE
VERSE 3
Now at the lectern you lash at the laws,
Suspending lifelines of those that you clawed,
You’re tempting practiced science,
You’re bending their minds…
CHORUS - OUTRO
I’m not sure what you want,
But I can already see,
That anything they propose
Is pure heresy…
To your God,
To your faith,
Can’t obtain your honest praise, you fear disgrace,
To your God,
To your faith…
FADE OUT
