Unholy War
Jacob Banks Lyrics

Unholy war
The internal struggle he's facing is intense

My demons are coming
His inner demons are approaching

Boy, you better run
He warns himself to escape before it's too late

Go take your freedom, oh no
Emphasizes that he must take steps to obtain freedom from his demons

Wade in the water
Symbolizes the need to cleanse and purify oneself

Be gone by morning
He needs to be out of danger by morning

Don't you let them find you here
He must remain hidden from his demons

Let love lead you home, oh no
He needs to find peace and love to guide him home

Let redemption keep you warm
Redemption will bring him comfort and security

So, you better run
Emphasizes the urgency of his need to escape

Time has come
Now is the time to take action

Future is now, oh love
The future is in his hands, and he must act with love

Steady on
He needs to remain focused and determined

Go take your bow
He must celebrate his victories and accomplishments

Weather the storm
He must remain strong in the face of adversity

Good times will pass you by
If he doesn't act soon, he will miss out on good times

Hit the road
He needs to leave his current circumstances behind and move on

Leave your sorrows behind
It's time for him to let go of his pain and sadness

Oh, would you let love lead you home, oh please
He asks himself if he's really willing to let love guide him home

I know it's killing you, oh
The internal battle is taking a toll on him

You gotta leave, oh no
He has to get out before it's too late

You gotta leave (you gotta leave me there now)
He must abandon the old version of himself

You gotta leave here now)
He has to leave his demons behind

Oh save yourself, please
He's begging himself to save himself

You better run
He repeats his warning to escape from his demons

You better run
He repeats his warning to escape from his demons
