For people who are trained to know better
Conflict is a positive thing
Airing out the changes needed to be made
But when lies overshadow
No truth can be seen
But it exists to those who tell it
Even to those who are oblivious
To the lies fed to them
Building up daily
Until the next attack strikes fast
A day's wage for a day's work
Apparently that's old news for old views
As today's world takes everything it can
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick......
Let the torture begin
If that doesn't work, let's try again
Something more devious
Let's lie and swear to it
That's the new game
Only the ill willed will fall to it's use
Stand tall and be you
His truth comes forward
It rushes not for there is more to be told
The crumbs lead back to the liar
Eat not from the toxin
Prayer is what keeps you close to His truth
Pray for you and also for them
Absolve yourself from their sin
Restore yourself
Hold your shield high
His Truth surrounds you
Let God deal with this as only He can.
