This is about someone who always got along with everyone. Everything came easy for him, but he was not whole. He comes to faith and loses a lot of those around him that he knew.
Faith has a worldly price....but is well worth paying....
Anyways...any critique would be welcomed. In my mind it has a kinda Incubus feel...kinda chilled in the verses and Heavy in the chorus.
Verse 1
Since I was a young boy
I played the part
Star of the show, charades and acting
Nothing from the heart
Verse 2
Easy come with a worldly mind
Thoughts were filled in reverie
Now I dream of a life fulfilled
I'll show you brother that I kneel
Chorus
Please excuse me, while I pray
I hope I do not offend you
Please excuse, me while I pray
If none go with me I'll still choose
Verse 3
Friendships fold (the truth revealed)
No time for courtesies
No more hiding what I feel
No aiming to please
Verse 4
He has led me by example
Driven nails, the Blood, the thorns
Crowds will gather don't conform
Time to shine and be transformed
Chorus
Please excuse me, while I pray
I hope I do not offend you
Please excuse, me while I pray
If none go with me I'll still choose
SOLO
Chorus
Please excuse me, while I pray
I hope I do not offend you
Please excuse, me while I pray
If none go with me I'll still choose
Chorus Out…

Cool song,easy to understand and truthful. Take care Nite......
lyrics belong in songs, poems bolong in bookstores
it's all there, I like it, but I did have to read through twice to really take it all in, which isn't always the best quality in a sung lyric
I don't follow my dreams, I just ask em' where they're going and catch up with them later.
