Sanctification Parade - Dying Generation Lyrics
Verse 1Jake was a Christian from a Christian schoolHis life began to change as he entered public schoolHe thought it would be fun, but instead it was cruelHe didn't think the stuff going on was very coolIt seemed okay as the first month went byBut time went on, he watched as people diedHe felt his Christian dignity start to subsideAs they constantly tried to make him want to hidePre-Chorus 1All they did was lied and try to misguideAnd all he could do was just attempt to abideBut the pressure just got strongerAnd the pain just lasted longerThe hurt was unbearableAnd his life was just terribleChorusWe've gotta stand up and form a vocationWe've gotta reform this dying generationResist the temptations and restore the foundationsKilling all the lies from these misinterpretationsX2Verse 2All the drugs and the violence, Jake had no clueOf what in the world he could doThe ways of his school were so much different from hisHe didn't want to stand out, his life was being quizzedThere'd never been a time like this in his lifeBut now he had to give up everything and fightNo matter what, he wasn't going to give into their ways'Cause he knew that in the end, they would all have to payPre-Chorus 2All they did was lied and try to misguideAnd all he could do was just attempt to abideBut the pressure just got strongerAnd the pain just lasted longerThe hurt was unbearableBut God made it repairableChorusWe've gotta stand up and form a vocationWe've gotta reform this dying generationResist the temptations and restore the foundationsKilling all the lies from these misinterpretationsX2BridgeThe world wasn't always this Satanically twistedBut, because of the world, righteous ways were not persistedThis generation transformed these truths to fictionAll these addictions have caused so much afflictionAs Christians, we need to stand and lead an exampleAnd repair the things which the devil has trampledRestore the world's values to what they used to beAnd save this dying generation so it can be freeGuitar SoloChorusWe've gotta stand up and form a vocationWe've gotta reform this dying generationResist the temptations and restore the foundationsKilling all the lies from these misinterpretationsX2
