Moment
of Truth
by Morgan Foster & Tim Haig
Oh that this flesh would melt and resolve itself into a dew
Then this nagging doubt and remorse would wash itself away too
The eyes of fear look outward through everything I see
And I’m held defenseless, controlled by the force of its
gravity
So I sit and watch the pages fly off of my calendar
Cause I just don’t have anything better to do
I could drive until the moon’s on the other side of the
world
Or sacrifice my comfort for a moment of truth
Was it Marcus A who once said the future cannot be seen through
any lens
And it seems when you want to make a difference you have to lose
all your friends
But instead I watch the pages fly off of my calendar
Cause I just can’t find anything better to do
I could drive until the moon’s on the other side of the
world
Or sacrifice my comfort for a moment of truth
I’m tired of holding on
I’m losing control
You can’t stop me now
I’m breaking the mold
But was it you who said there’s more to what I’m worth?
Or was it you who said the smallest can change the Earth?
Take this mind take this heart, I’m so sick of using them
for lesser things
This Prince of Denmark is through with these games cause none
of them lead to King
I’m tired of holding on
I’m losing control
You can’t stop me now
I’m breaking the mold
But was it you who said there’s more to what I’m worth?
Or was it you who said the smallest can change the Earth?
But was it you who said there’s more to what I’m
worth?
Or was it you who said the smallest can change the Earth?
Or was it you who said beyond this seek ye first?
Or was it you who said the meek will inherit the Earth?
