Lyrics

Under microscope again. are you my family or friend?
Good intentions, I'll accept it, but these are unqualified judgments
5 minutes strong and you've known me life long
5 minutes strong
You've known me five minutes and my life is slipping
So tell me about my life because the clock is ticking
My first impression is all I'll give. take it and run. I know the deeds I've done
The prayers of the righteous availeth much
Much more than their "guiding" touch
Have you ever been faithful when you're under fire?
Shunned, but still remained the martyr?
Is this the integrity that you seek?
Experience it, please, before you speak
Thank you for being there for me, in all honesty
But could it be that my heart bleeds with the same sincerity?
I love when I'm feeling tall as I smile at the crowd that claims my fall
I love when I'm feeling tall, because I stood up through it all
