Redemption

When I look into the faces
Of the people that surround me
I look into the faces
Of a fearsome enemy
When silhouettes do clear up
I look into a smiling face
I feel surely that I am
Facing a jaw with devilish teeth
The seed is spread
The time has come
The harvest shall begin
Only when you see them clear
Their slaying can begin
Redemption’s what I’m longing for
Restoring justice is no sin
Too long did I deny
What the world’s become to me
Too long have I been blind
Not seeing who betrayed me
Too long did I just watch
What they made of me
Too long have I been
The fool they made of me
