You say that nothing’s going on
That every lie is normal
Ever felt like everything you do is a lie? Like it's all a big farce? That "fake it 'til you make it" just means that you have done a lot of faking it?
Friend, I feel you! Imposter syndrome... I'm not who they think I am, and if they really knew who I was, would they still like me? Would they think I'm worth being in their life?
And you thought you knew all there was to know
Then a spirit wakes to rattle your window
We can't know all there is to know. And maybe that realization is as freeing to you as it was to me. That my job is simply to know what I do know. To testify to that.
So testify
Like a prophet with a vision
See through the world you're in
You testify
And tell the modern jury
Don’t lose the truth again
Our job is to tell our story and nobody else's. Our story of how we met Jesus. And the truth of Jesus is all that is needed to carry through. Because that is the truth. The person of Jesus Christ and what He has done in our life. Testify to that.
There’s a rending of the air
That always goes unnoticed
And fluorescence holds your stare
The wind will break your motives
When the city’s in a slumber
It’s sailing down the highway
You hear a sudden mutter
Roaring up a Sunday
So testify
Like a prophet with a vision
See through the world you're in
You testify
And tell the modern jury
Don’t lose the truth again
You say you live a simple life
As if nothing’s significant
If you just stay inside the pain will never mobilize
And when they open up their eyes
Watching every nightfall
You’re wrapped up in the sight of a thousand little white lies
And you thought you knew all there was to know
Then a spirit wakes to rattle your window
So testify
Like a prophet with a vision
See through the world you're in
You testify
And tell the modern jury
Don’t lose the truth again
You say that nothing’s going on
That every lie is normal
You said that all along it’s nothing that you did wrong
But the temple’s tearing down again
To shake around the shadows
Your heart begins to bend with the sound of every amen
Then a spirit wakes to rattle your window
So testify
Like a prophet with a vision
See through the world you're in
You testify
And tell the modern jury
Don’t lose the truth again
There’s a rending of the air
That always goes unnoticed
And fluorescence holds your stare
The wind will break your motives
When the city’s in a slumber
It’s sailing down the highway
You hear a sudden mutter
Roaring up a Sunday
So testify
Like a prophet with a vision
See through the world you're in
You testify
And tell the modern jury
Don’t lose the truth again
