Reverse
C lite Lyrics

Why is the monster taller than ever, while the weak fade away?
Why do those who are powerful and monstrous seem to be growing stronger while those who are weak and vulnerable continue to decline?

When justice storms, and darkness flees, I'm reminded on that day
When justice is served and darkness is eradicated, I am reminded that there will come a day of reckoning.

The last shall be first, the first shall be last
Those who are considered the most insignificant will be elevated to greatness and those who are great will become insignificant.

The last shall be and everything's in reverse
Those who are last will become first and everything will be turned upside down.

Livin' with the end in mind, something like the president
Living with the awareness that the end is near, similar to how a president faces the realization that his term will come to an end.

I was livin' for the moment, tryin' to own it, residence
I used to live in the present, trying to possess it, and make it my permanent dwelling place.

Believe in Him, that's the last thing I'd ever chose
Believing in the Lord is the least likely option I would have chosen.

Gimme that red top, that sixty seven Chevy my cousin drove on them coldest
I want that red convertible, the same sixty seven Chevy my cousin used to drive during the coldest days.

Life is short, I hope I make it down the road
Life is brief, I hope I am able to make it through its journey.

But where I'm from hope was that girl who flirted, flaunted
Where I come from, hope was the girl who would tease and flaunt her attractiveness.

You never got it, but she was the one you always wanted
You never quite understood it, but she was the one you always desired.

How good a picture perfect image front and tell you lies
It is amazing how someone can present a perfect image while simultaneously telling you lies.

My version of perversion did it every day alive
My own twisted version of sin was something I indulged in every day I was alive.

And man that burden got me hurtin' lookin' for some answers
And that burden caused me pain, I was searching for answers.

Endless searchin' just leave you burnin', Jo Jo Dancer
Continuously searching will only leave you burned and hurt, similar to how Jo Jo Dancer felt in his movie.

But mine ended when I saw the Lord would choose to hang
My search ended when I realized that the Lord chose to be crucified.

That type of love got me coming back, call it boomerang
That kind of love keeps drawing me back, it's like a boomerang effect.
