Honest Mistakes
Triumph Over Honest Mistakes: A Journey of Redemption
Lyrics
All hailing their god of persistence
All are praising their persistent deity
Anyone could have been there
Anyone could have been present
I've got a hold of myself
I have regained control of myself
And I'm bringing in some other ways
Introducing alternative approaches
To bury my honest mistakes
Intending to conceal or overcome my sincere errors
Abraham man your fire's burning
Addressing Abraham, noting his burning passion
The sun is setting away from you
The sun is setting in a direction away from Abraham
I was called here to bring us out of this
Feeling a calling to lead others out of a difficult situation
And I will not fail
Expressing determination not to fail in the endeavor
And I will not fail
Reiteration of the commitment not to fail
Burning stares in the back of my head
Experiencing intense, critical gazes behind
All that I can be is my own
Embracing selfhood as the only possibility
I've got a whole dictionary of words that I'd like to be using
Having a rich vocabulary but choosing to express only well-being
But all I say is I am OK
Despite having many words, stating that everything is okay
Abraham man your fire's burning
Speaking to Abraham again about his fading enthusiasm
The sun is setting away from you
The sun continues to set away from Abraham
I was called here to bring us out of this
Feeling called to guide others out of a challenging situation
And I will not fail
Reaffirming the commitment not to fail
And I will not fail
Repeating the determination not to fail
Suddenly I have fallen into your plans
Suddenly finding oneself entangled in someone else's plans
They're burrowing into last week
Plans digging into the past week
Abraham man your fire's burned out
Addressing Abraham, noting that his passion has extinguished
Your son is sailing away from you
Abraham's son is moving away from him
I was called here to bring us out of death
Feeling called to lead others out of death or despair
And I will not fail
Reiterating the determination not to fail
And I will not fail
Reaffirming the commitment not to fail
And I will not fail
Repeating the determination not to fail
And I will not fail
Reiterating the commitment not to fail
I was called here to bring us out of death
Feeling called to lead others out of death or despair (repeated)
But I have failed
Acknowledging personal failure despite the calling
