[Verse 1] Hands on the table Dust on the prayer book Boots by the doorway Same cracks in the floor Mama said, "Choose wise" When the night gets hungry I keep my head low But my heart wants more [Pre-Chorus] If I kneel, will you hear me? If I run, will it save me? The room gets smaller When the truth comes close [Chorus] God and weapons God and weapons What do I trust? God and weapons God and weapons Which one lifts me up? (Which one lifts me up?) [Verse 2] Iron in the basement Salt on the tongue now Paper on the window Wind in the chain link I seen good men shaking I seen bad men praying Same hands reaching For a way to breathe [Pre-Chorus] If I kneel, will you hear me? If I bleed, will you name me? The room gets smaller When the truth comes close [Chorus] God and weapons God and weapons What do I trust? God and weapons God and weapons Which one lifts me up? (Which one lifts me up?) [Bridge] I don't want a kingdom Built on smoke and grief I want a door open And a life I can keep Say my name softly When the dark comes near I was born for mercy Not for fear [Final Chorus] God and weapons God and weapons What do I trust? God and weapons God and weapons Which one lifts me up? (Which one lifts me up?) God and weapons God and weapons Take this fear away (Take this fear away)
