Steppin Up To The Microphone
~Newsboys
...
steppin' right up to the microphone
i say hey man!
there's only one way!
one God one body one faith alone
if you don't know
then ya need to be told!
i say hey boy
it's a narrow road
i say hello to anyone who's listening
the message ain't nothing new
i don't decide what's true
so when the stones gets thrown
they either miss or they turn to glory
here's the story as far as i know
steppin' up
i don't step alone
the question is how do we know what we know?
the answer is so plain to see
so here i go
tap the mic "test 1,2,3"
Truth Be Known
~Newsboys
he nods a little too fast
talking illogic with a big bombast, he's
full on dead sure any way's true, and he
wouldn't wanna knock it if it works for you, he
heaves sighs a little too loud
so frustrated with the one-way in crowd
full on dead sure anything goes
until you go stepping on his own toes
Chorus:
hold on if the truth be known
truth is more than "to each his own"
if the truth be known
there'll be more to answer for
everybody gets a shot
it'll cost everything you've got
if the truth be known
do you really wanna know?
she tries a little denial
rolls her eyes like a jaded reptile
true/false questions make her uptight
opposites attract, so they both must be right.
what if there's someone up there?
shrugs it off with a "don't know, don't care"
hopes to God he doesn't exist
but ignorance here is less than bliss
Believe,
~Newsboys
as i lay me down
where do i begin
so simply complicated
the voice within
i hear it singing so clear
invisible like the sound of the wind
we all know
you are there
i just believe
i just believe it
and sometimes i don't know why
i gotta go with my gut again on this one
not just a feeling
it's the reason
we know a line is crooked
'cause we know what's straight
that little voice inside
as i lay me down
i confess
i'm a fool for you
no more, no less
and in this world turning gray
strikes a chord when i say
there is black,
there is white
there is wrong
and there is right
...
the evidence of things unseen
the more you look
the more you'll see
