i repent
i repent.
i repent of my pursuit of america's dream
i repent.
i repent of living like i deserve anything
of my house, my fence, my kids, my wife
in our suburb where we're safe and white
i am wrong and of these things i repent
i repent.
i repent of parading my liberty
i repent.
i repent of paying for what i get for free
and for the way i believe that i am living right
by trading sins for others that are easier to hide
i am wrong and of these things i repent.
i repent judging by a law that even i can't keep
of wearing righteousness like a disguise
to see through the planks in my own eyes.
i repent.
i repent of trading truth for false unity
i repent.
i repent of confusing peace and idolatry
by caring more of what they think
than what i know of what we need
by domesticating you until you look just like me
i am wrong and of these things i repent.

I totally dig this song too. By the way this is Jason at Heart of God Ministries. We are going to have a special guest at Nomads too, that I think you might be interested in, Benny Prasad. He is Indian's most traveled musician and is awesome. Watch some of his videos at Bennyprasad.com.
