That Old Dirt Road by Philip Pinckney.wav

America First -- it ain't just a trite phrase! Oh say can you see we've gone sideways...

Common Ground

I need to try to find a way
To break these chains that bind me
To wash my worries down the drain
To leave these pains behind me
I just need some time to pray
By His grace He guides me
He walks right beside me
In His wings He hides me

Chorus 
He’s the lion and the lamb
The Messiah, the Great I Am
He slayed a giant -- by a shepherd's hand
I think I can’t -- He says I can.

Feel like a white rat in a maze
Oh, please lead and guide me
Keep comin’ back to the same ol’ place
Oh, please stay beside me
No one will say it to my face
So, friend, please remind me
Can’t go where He won’t find me
He can break these chains that bind me

Chorus 
Cuz He’s the lion and the lamb
The Messiah, the Great I Am
He slayed a giant -- by a shepherd's hand
I think I can’t -- He says I can

Break these chains that bind me
Leave these pains behind me
So, friend, please remind me
Can’t go where He won’t find me
He walks right beside me
His Spirit leads and guides me
In His wings, He hides me

Chorus
He’s the lion and the lamb
The Messiah, the Great I Am
He slayed a giant -- by a shepherd's hand
I think I can’t -- He says I can

Outro
He’s the lion and the lamb
The Messiah, the Great I Am
He slayed a giant -- by a shepherd's hand
I think I can’t -- He says I can

He Says I Can

Time to get up from your nappin'
Somethin' drastic's 'bout to happen
So grab the hand of the Captain n hold on tight
Gonna go from bad to worse, before it's set to right

Prophecy's bein' fulfilled
Right before our eyes
Keep an eye on Israel
And Palestine

Chorus
Seek His kingdom first
And don't believe the serpent's lies
Gonna go from bad to worse
Before it's set to right

Get set for war, drought and famine

Chorus 1
He’s the lion and the lamb

He’s the one who understands
I think I can’t -- He says I can.

Bad to Worse

I Can

I recognized you from our talks on Zoom
I walked up to you from across the room
You were hanging with your posse
Thought I heard you singin' softly

Are you Sofie? I shyly asked
How do you know me?
From that online class.
You showed me your empty glass

Perhaps we've talked at the gym?
No, I'd have remembered if we had
Somethin' sweet, with salt on the rim
A strawberry margarita -- perhaps?

Chorus
I said you look prettier in person
Tryin' to be witty, I wasn't flirtin'
I said I can barely hear you over the band
You asked if I was sober enough -- to dance

SO WE HIT THE DANCE FLOOR AND EXPLODED
LIKE TWO SHOTGUNS, LOCKED AND LOADED
I WAS TRYING TO KEEP UP WITH YOUR MOVES
FELT LIKE A GEEK, TRYIN' TO GET IN THE GROOVE

Pretty soon we were so hot, we had to take a break
I thought we oughtta take a walk, down by the lake
Got a couple stops to make, then yeah, that'd be great

My heart was beatin' fast and my head was buzzin'
We talked n laughed, said I don't do much clubbin'
Finally we relaxed over coffee and a muffin
By the time we got back, we were huffin' n puffin'

You looked up at me with those deer in the headlight eyes
Like you got a box of crackerjacks, and I was the prize

Chorus
I said you look prettier in person
Thought that was fitting, but I wasn't certain
I said I can barely hear you over the band
You asked if I was sober enough -- to dance

WE HIT THE DANCE FLOOR AND EXPLODED
LIKE TWO SHOTGUNS, LOCKED N LOADED
STILL TRYIN' TO KEEP UP WITH YOUR MOVES
HEAD SPINNIN', BEGINNIN' TO FEEL THE GROOVE

You looked up at me with those deer in the headlight eyes
Like you got a box of crackerjacks, and I was the prize

Chorus
I said you look prettier in person
Tried to be witty, but it wasn't workin'
I said "I can barely hear you over the band."
You asked if I was sober enough -- to dance

WE HIT THE DANCE FLOOR, CAUGHT THE BEAT AND RODE IT
I MUST'VE PASSED THE TEST, CUZ WITH YOUR FEET, YOU VOTED
YOU WERE TRYING TO MATCH MY SPIDERY MOVES
HEAD WAS SPINNIN', I WAS FINALLY IN THE GROOVE
YEAH, AND YOU WERE GETTIN' IN THE MOOD

I said you look prettier in person
Tryin' to be witty, it was finally workin'
I said "I can barely hear you over the band."
I'm just glad I was sober enough to dance
Glad I was sober enough to dance
Sober enough to dance

Sober Enough to Dance

You can feel a change in the atmosphere
The future's calling, dissolving lack n fear
Can you sense it, can you sense it too?
What we wished for, is finally comin' true!

Heavenly voices are filling the void
Building back what bad choices
have killed and destroyed

Ohhh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Can you hear the Spirit calling?
Ohhh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Our cities are eroding n falling

Rise again, rise again
Like a Phoenix -- rising from the ashes
Rise again, rise again
To the zenith -- like a rite of passage
(Rise again, rise again)

This country is burnin', we've waited too long
For the tide to start turnin', to right what's wrong
Simple truths are comin', back to life
Cutting thru lies, like an axe or a knife

Ohhh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Can you hear the Spirit calling?
Ohhh-oh-oh-oh-oh
A new day is here n dawning...

Rise again, rise again
Like the sun on the horizon
Rise again, rise again
Like Neptune or Poseidon

Rise from death, in a state of change
Nothing left, will stay the same
Hand in hand, we'll pave the way
To the promised land, to a brighter day

Ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh
Ohhh-oh-oh-oh
Rise again, rise again
Mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm

Rise again, rise again
Like a Phoenix -- from the ashes
Rise again, rise again
To the zenith -- a rite of passage

(Rise, rise, rise)
Like a fiddler from the ashes
(In spite of MSM lies)
We ain't Hitler, we ain't fascists

(Rise, rise, rise)
Like a fiddler from the ashes
(In spite of MSM lies)
We ain't Hitler, we ain't fascists

Somethin' drastic's bout to happen
Bringin' changes that are massive
Take time to be active, not passive
Important documents will be redacted

Rise again, rise again
Like a Phoenix -- rising from the ashes
Rise again, rise again
To the zenith -- like a rite of passage

Rise Again
