The funny thing about faith is that
You don't really get the tests you take until long after the fact
You don't know why the storm is brewing, or why your character is under attack
Why is it my life that's being broken down? They deserve it because I'm not like that!
But you try to stretch those muscles of faith knowing someone, or something has your back

So you put on a brave face and soldier on
Despite not knowing how much longer it's in you to hold on
All seems lost, you're finally going to break
It's like being trapped in San Andreas during a massive earthquake
And suddenly someone pays you back more than what life had to take
Its like life evens out, a balance that's impossible to break

Now I'm not advocating any particular religion
But read this closely so you know the point is before you,Β  so listen
to that voice in the back of your head saying it may be dark now but there's brightness on the way
It may be hard to stand up now, but that adrenalin shot will come tomorrow, if not today
As long as you learn to stretch those muscles of hope and of faith

You can make it through the night to that brighter day
