In a shell of bitterness    Covered in self righteousness    In the wake of evidence    You're clinging to your stubbornness       Drinking from a dirty cup    Well you turn your head    And drink it up    But the nasty deeds you hide away    Will all be seen on judgment day       Chorus:    No letting go    Of the old traditions    Paving the road    With a strong conviction    And the blood flows    For a true redemption    But you cannot see that you've gone too far    Cause you live your life    With a hard heart       Were you looking for an angry king    To help you conquer everything    But the day will come    When you'll drop your sword and cry    Blessed be the One who comes    In the name of the Lord       (chorus)       Bridge:    Snake in the grass crack in the glass    You beat down the head    Of the poor and hungry    Whatever you do to the least of these    You do it unto Me, unto Me       Chorus:    No letting go    And the blood flows    For a true redemption    But you cannot hear    What the Savior said    Cause your heart is hard    And your faith is dead    And you cannot see    That you've gone too far    Cause you live your life with a    Hard heart       (1st chorus)
