We Like That - Excommunicate

Designer pride hidden lies
Accustomed to hands held high
Front row status recognized
Yet no souls moved
Protest signs words online
Condemnation in our time
Opinions dismissed against mine
Cause you have truth
Why am I singing
Why am I screaming
Seems like everything you're seeing
Is everything I don't believe in
It's me versus you yours versus mine
The complication of our tribes
We're just the blind leading the blind
No ones foolproof
Why am I singing
Why am I screaming
Seems like everything you're seeing
Is everything I don't believe in
This is where I start to break
Where I take all I can take
Where I'm not something I ain't
Where I excommunicate
Oh come to the altar
Won't you draw nigh
Oh come to where interpretation must die
Where tradition and dogma
Contend for whats right
And where the messiah is painted as white
Historical context is lost to the past
It's where mysteries lungs have breathed in their last
Where science is treated just like a disease
Cause the only vaccine
Can come on your knees
It's where the cross is draped in the stars and the stripes
Where we forfeit our morals and instead claim our rights
To oppose who you love where you're from what you wear
Where we substitute action for our thoughts and our prayers
So come to the altar
Why wont you give in
Oh it simply must be because of your sin
Or because of your pride
Or because you're deceived
Not because we gave nothing for you to believe
Why am I singing
Why am I screaming
Seems like everything you're seeing
Is everything I don't believe in
Why am I singing
Why am I screaming
Seems like everything you're seeing
Is everything I don't believe in now
