Quit knocking at the door with the plagues
My name's not Job, do you hear me?
The last I heard you buried most of his family
I'm not a token to be wagered in any bet of any consequence
Afflicted for obedience
"Why do you watch the faithless in silence?"
I was once dust without a mind to speak
But now I breathe
And my aching heart beats too
Either put me back into the dirt or let us be through
And this is not an invitation for the Devil to be standing on my door
Like a traveling salesman he's all sugar pills, cheap thrills and bullshit
Should your friend try his card tricks again I'll take from him his head
And bring to an end his miserable existence in this life
I want to be like Jacob
Standing in the face of the Almighty
Wrestling till day break
Let him know my name
Let them know my name
