Can't Take God Away
Unshakable Faith: Defying Attempts to Remove God
Lyrics
You can take God out of my school
You can remove references to God from schools, but it won't affect my personal belief.
you can make me listen to you
Even if you try to influence or persuade me, it won't change my commitment to God.
You can take God out of the pledge
Despite excluding God from official pledges, it doesn't diminish my devotion.
but you can't take God out of my head
God remains a constant and integral part of my thoughts and beliefs.
Listen to me closely, lend me your ear
The speaker requests focused attention to convey a sincere message.
the substance of my statement lets you know I'm sincere
The speaker asserts the sincerity of their statement.
Government officials, shapers of the land
Addressing government officials as influential figures in shaping the nation.
I've to to tell you something you need to understand
The speaker feels the need to communicate an important message.
You can't take God away from me
No external force can separate the speaker from their faith in God.
you can take my life, my land, my liberty
Even if personal possessions, freedom, and life are taken, faith in God remains.
Lock me up, I'll still be free
Even imprisonment cannot negate the speaker's sense of spiritual freedom.
'cause you can't take God from me
Reiteration that God cannot be taken away despite external circumstances.
You can take God out of the law
God may be excluded from legal matters, but it doesn't affect personal belief.
you can make me listen to ya'll
Despite attempts to influence, the speaker remains steadfast in their faith.
You can take God out of the start
Even if God is removed from the beginning or origin, it stays in the speaker's heart.
but you can't take God out of my heart
Reiteration that God is an enduring presence in the speaker's heart.
Listen to me closely, lend me your ear
Request for focused attention to emphasize sincerity once again.
the substance of my statement lets you know I'm sincere
Reaffirmation of the speaker's sincerity in their message.
Government officials, shapers of the land
Addressing government officials as key figures in shaping the nation.
I've to to tell you something you need to understand
Restating the importance of the message the speaker wants officials to understand.
You can't take God, you can't take God away
Emphatic repetition that God cannot be taken away, reinforcing the central theme.
You can't take God, you can't take God away
-You can't take God, you can't take God away
-You can't take God, you can't take God away
