Not Fitting In

(High energy, driving guitar riff kicks in)

Verse 1
Goes against the grain, they say I’m a mess
Admit it, I don't know, but I know the address
The one who does, the one who knows the way
Rejecting the self for a better day
They try to lure me out, with every little sin
A whisper of poison trying to creep within
But there’s a presence here, a fire they can't drown
Wearing the holy armor in this ghost town.

Pre-Chorus
They've got their tricks, their malice and deceit
Their poisonous lies, the taste is so bitter-sweet
Gotta push past the desire, fight the urge to stay away
Need the discipline to meet you, every single day!

Chorus
(Edgy, shouted, fast tempo)
I'M CARRYING THE LAMB OF GOD, DON'T YOU GET IT?
YOUR DEMONS DON'T DISQUALIFY ME, I'M NOT FITTING
INTO YOUR FEAR!
YOUR LIES ARE CHEAP!
I'VE GOT THE SPIRIT IN ME, AND IT CUTS SO DEEP!
YOU'RE JUST A THREAT, GREAT OR SMALL, I DON'T FEAR YOU AT ALL!

Verse 2
The enemy’s within, yeah, I know the sting
But it never once changed the favor you bring
Millions walk with them, but the fight is still on
You're not afraid of a demon, from dusk till dawn
The communion is real, the conversation is true
I wouldn't be here if not for what you do
So I’ll keep coming back, keep finding the light
Throw off the shadow, and stand up and fight!

Pre-Chorus
They've got their tricks, their malice and deceit
Their poisonous lies, the taste is so bitter-sweet
Gotta push past the desire, fight the urge to stay away
Need the discipline to meet you, every single day!

Chorus
(Edgy, shouted, fast tempo)
I'M CARRYING THE LAMB OF GOD, DON'T YOU GET IT?
YOUR DEMONS DON'T DISQUALIFY ME, I'M NOT FITTING
INTO YOUR FEAR!
YOUR LIES ARE CHEAP!
I'VE GOT THE SPIRIT IN ME, AND IT CUTS SO DEEP!
YOU'RE JUST A THREAT, GREAT OR SMALL, I DON'T FEAR YOU AT ALL!

Bridge
You smile on me, you are gracious
You show your favor, and it's contagious
The peace you give, it is my anchor
Against the world, the tempter, the rancor!

Guitar Solo (High energy, frantic, then melodic, then back to power chords)

Chorus
(Edgy, shouted, fast tempo)
I'M CARRYING THE LAMB OF GOD, DON'T YOU GET IT?
YOUR DEMONS DON'T DISQUALIFY ME, I'M NOT FITTING
INTO YOUR FEAR!
YOUR LIES ARE CHEAP!
I'VE GOT THE SPIRIT IN ME, AND IT CUTS SO DEEP!
YOU'RE JUST A THREAT, GREAT OR SMALL, I DON'T FEAR YOU AT ALL!

Outro
I’ll keep coming back, Dad!
No matter what happens in this life!
