“All My Role Models Went to Prison”
YEAH!!
(Verse 1)
They chained their hands but not their praise
Locked the doors but not their faith
From the courtrooms to the cell
They carried heaven through the hell
Jesus stood before the crowd
Silent, strong, and unbowed
Paul wrote letters in the night
Joseph dreamed by candlelight
(Chorus)
All my role models went to prison
For a truth they wouldn’t deny
Daniel prayed with the lions waiting
John saw glory in the sky
Peter sang in the midnight hour
Bars couldn’t hold the power within
All my role models went to prison
And I wanna live like them
(Verse 2)
They faced the fire, they faced the stone
But they knew they weren’t alone
Faith that stands when the world says “No”
Love that shines when the shadows grow
They didn’t bow to fear or shame
They lifted high the holy name
Chains would fall, the ground would shake
God’s kingdom rising in their wake
(Chorus)
All my role models went to prison
For a truth they wouldn’t deny
Daniel prayed with the lions waiting
John saw glory in the sky
Peter sang in the midnight hour
Bars couldn’t hold the power within
All my role models went to prison
And I wanna live like them
(Bridge)
If the day should ever come
When my faith is on the line
I pray I’ll stand like they have done
With a fire that will not die
(Final Chorus)
All my role models went to prison
For a truth they wouldn’t deny
Daniel prayed with the lions waiting
John saw glory in the sky
Peter sang in the midnight hour
Bars couldn’t hold the power within
All my role models went to prison
And I wanna live like them
