There were times when I questioned my reasons
Thought I wouldn't last
Seemed the hand of God held my head underwater

Somehow I fought back

It's still not over yet

No, it won't let me quit

Found myself more than just once

Praying down on my knees
My search for answers only led to more questions
Sometimes for faith you've got to bleed


By now I've bled my share
Now it's my turn to redeem


When it comes my way, I won't be scared
I've been waiting all my life

Pain has prepared me for the moment of truth
And the true test is time


Give all you have because you believe
Sell your mortal soul
And if you're not a predator then, oh you better pray

Bet it all now or fold

But there's still a danger there

Don't become one of them

When it comes my way, I won't be scared

I've been waiting all my life
Pain has prepared me for the moment of truth
And the true test is time


For all I've done some good and some bad
Don't hang me just yet

Judge me not on one thing I've done
See my whole life instead


When it comes my way, I won't be scared
I've been waiting all my life
Pain has prepared me for the moment of truth

And the true test is time
