Keegan MacLeod - i bare the flame. Lyrics

(And we need to realize that the Holy Spirit will aead us into all truths)
(Can you see how this stuff can work in your life?)
(One last principle and we bring this to a close)
(We said that situations and circumstances can determine our behaviour and our actions, but what we believe about them does. Our beliefs determine thoughts and emotions and then our actions)
My mother said"I raised you better than this"
But her words cut deeper than a serpent's kiss
In the darkness, I hide my true face
Living a lie, in this cursed place
In this cursed place
In this cursed place
With a Bible thrown, told I'd burn alive
In the name of love, they took my pride
They took my pride
My pride
My pride
My pride
My pride
Raised by fear, in the name of the divine
Told my love was a sin, a twisted crime, crime
Now I carry the guilt, the weight of the shame
In this dark world
I bare the flame
I bare the flame
I bare the flame
Raised by fear, in the name of the divine
Told my love was a sin
Telling me things like"God won't accept you, no"
He won't accept you, no"The devil's waiting for you, to gut you out. And pull you in the river to drown"
Because of who I am
Raised by fear, in the name of the divine
Told my love was a sin, a twisted crime, crime
Now I carry the guilt, the weight of the shame
In this dark world
I bare the flame
I bare the flame
I bare the flame
(I raised you better than this!)
(I raised you better than this!)
(I raised you better than this!)
(I raised you better than this!)
