the man who never thought - jake wishard lyrics

[verse 1]

a lot of us agree that talk is often cheap
get to watching how you speak
or pay homage to “the chief”
not “i” do i mean
but “the god and nazarene”
got me dropping to me knees but there’s a lot of room between
“the supreme” and i, so i scream at night
with tears in eyes that will stream as i
go to greet the sky with a, “i believe but i, might believe a lie!”
why? its seems that i, never got to see “the light”
cause it’s hard to hit the mark shooting darts in the dark
it’s stark but it’s been that way from the start
so i split my heart apart upon the stage and call it art
in an attempt to find “the man” who’s hand is handing out the cards
and if we met i would ask him a question that troubles my head
what was he thinking when he decided how he’d shuffle the deck?
i’ve seen some in the depths without a ladder or steps
drown to death, they were only given half a breath
yet, this is what i was given
but how can i say that to you if i’m still living?
an answer i’ll supply so try and listen
i died to myself and like the messiah risen
but can i talk to god like this and say that i’m a christian?
does me tryna get to know myself defy religion?
no, knowing ourselves and him is what supply’s the mission
so we can truly care and love, that defines the ending…

[chorus 1]

in these pastures i’m afraid that my shepherd won’t come for me
in these pastures i’m afraid that my shepherd won’t come for me
did i do something wrong? have you noticed i’m gone?
i’ve been lost for so long…will i ever be found?
how many times i gotta knock upon the door before you open it?
(before you open it)
how many times i gotta knock upon the door before you open it?
(before you open it)

[verse 2]

as i was saying, asking is praying and if not
i’d be in a plot, in a box laying, with a tomb stone on top
naming a nameless criminal claiming
“a threat to humanity”…‘the man who never thought’”
so if i ain’t thinking you better bet i’m a threat
if i don’t think you have value why do you deserve respect?
if i don’t think you have purpose why do you deserve a breath?
the things that make us human we neglect and then in turn learn to forget
so, i’ll admit my guiltiness, i was a filthy mess, thinking that this kid was limitless
only because of the fact i didn’t care if you exist
unless i could use you as means for me to be lucrative
so no need to be friends, you were just means to an end
had about a dollar in my wallet so people i spent
with evil intent, didn’t see my offense but now i’m seeking amends
and i might have changed my ways but i can’t erase the days
that my tongue cut like razor blades
every cell in my body emitted hate and rage
but at that age i didn’t know how to face the pain
i felt it but at the same time it was hidden from me
but not from the eyes of those who really loved me
they could see the good in me but all i could see was ugly
made me sick in my tummy if they hug me or call me honey
i didn’t understand how people could treat me well
cause i was the one who pierced their hands and feet with nails
then i looked at my hands and feet
they started to bleed as well
i admitted defeat that i needed to be freed of h-ll

[chorus 2]
