"Two Voices" lyrics by Chris McCabe
(Intro)
You don’t know my name
You don’t know my name
And I don’t really care
And I don’t really care
You don’t know my name
You don’t know my name
And I don’t really care
And I don’t really care I’ve got something to say
(Verse)
I gather up the energy to write the first line
I can’t feel a thing, then right on time
I feel it, I feel it, going inside my mind
It’s happening now, this music is coming alive
I can see it right in front of me, taking shape
Yeah I gotta say, hey, theres something that I gotta say
They hope in that American dream, and say they never pray
I think they do, they just do it in a different way
Hands high, yeah, we’re getting baptized
By dollar signs, believing a lie
Go to school get a job sell drugs don’t stop,
Chasing money, security; worshipping our paper god
Cuz all that money’s gonna fade
It can’t buy peace or release the chains
I’m going for it even though its hard to say
I gotta got this off my chest, whatever it takes
(Chorus)
I got two voices inside of my head
What needs to be said or what you want to hear
So many people throw it all, all away
With a mic and a producer, and nothing to say
I’d rather move one person than draw a crowd
Cuz I don’t care about what they care about
I don’t want to be rich, I don’t need any fame
And I don’t really care who knows my name
(Verse)
Yeah, so where my underdogs at
Overwhelming odds, you don’t care about that
Going hard in the paint, you’re attacking the glass
Waiting to rebound, but the ball’s not coming back
It ain’t right, ain’t fair, life doesn’t fight fair
Slip left, hands up but it hit you with the chair
Breaking apart, you’re end at the end of you’re rope
You’re up against the ropes though and you’re losing you’re hope
Yeah, the meds didn’t work, you can’t find work
No food in your stomach, can’t hide the hurt
Yeah, she never called back, never called back
Hung up on the things that you can’t have, yeah
But life is more, than money and status
It’s more than we’ve imagined, hands high like a fanatic
Listen to the music build scream with all your passion
We won’t shut up, we don’t care who’s asking
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
Breakthrough all your insecurities
Yes you, I know you feel the weight of
Trying to prove what you’re worth, you don’t understand
Breakthrough and reach to the Savior
I’m tearing down the walls
Smash those voices down like a house of cards
Lets go, where we’ve never gone before
Yeah, this is our breakthrough
I know what society says about you
You’re a reject you don’t matter, that ain’t true
God’s got a plan for your life, I wouldn’t lie
Look me in the eyes you won’t see dollar signs
I’m here to walk with you, not play for the crowds
I know those voices your hearing, tune ’em out
Your identity is not what happened in the past
Christ died for that, so be free, no more looking back
(Chorus)
(Outro)
Two voices inside of my head
What needs to be said or what you want
