Somehow I fought back
Praying down on my knees
And if you're not a predator then, oh you better pray
And the true test is time
But there's still a danger there
For all I've done some good and some bad
Pain has prepared me for the moment of truth
It's still not over yet
When it comes my way, I won't be scared
And the true test is time
By now I've bled my share
Sell your mortal soul
Pain has prepared me for the moment of truth
Bet it all now or fold
Seemed the hand of God held my head underwater
Give all you have because you believe
See my whole life instead
When it comes my way, I won't be scared
No, it won't let me quit
I've been waiting all my life
Sometimes for faith you've got to bleed
Pain has prepared me for the moment of truth
I've been waiting all my life
Now it's my turn to redeem
Judge me not on one thing I've done
I've been waiting all my life
When it comes my way, I won't be scared
My search for answers only led to more questions
Found myself more than just once
Don't hang me just yet
Don't become one of them
