Soul on the loose

Nothing is free, even salvation has a price

Silver letters on a plaque
blood stained dreams
an't no lookin back

Salvage a nightmare
words written in que
an't nobody dream'n
were just look'n for you

Stand alone on the platform
tell your song to the crowd
just look'n for heaven
face to the ground

Heard my daddy say'n
don't nobody win
if your look'n for forgiven
then you must except the sin

saw the pastor
look'n heaven bound
knew he was scream'n
hell and fire go in down

Children talk'n to gold
old man say'n it is time to go
water a float'n body soft
baptism of the reborn soul

Saw the silver letters
shining black on black
if your preach'n redemsion
just an't no look'n back

Muddy water can lift a body high
you don't know who you are
if you never try
blood stained dreams

Fire floating in the sky
floods left a rainbow
even God can cry

Man he has been here
left his mark upon ground
listen to the pain
even children will drown

Flesh is the day
Burning morn'n sun
all of us marching
to the sound of the gun

Cross planted on hill
just a few drops of blood
outcome of the kill
water tastes like wine

Child of salvation borne
its Christmas time
