Until the Smoke Clears (Remix)

[Intro - Speaking]
Let the real be revealed when the smoke clears...

[Verse]
Where did all my leaders go what did my mentors leave me for/Wednesday nights and friendships gone late night calls don't lift me more (lift me more)/Through the phases changes strange smiling faces hide the pain/Where's my life and where's my faith why this emptiness remains/Thinking I knew everything scriptures hold the truth I need/Digging graves instead of dreams while they flourish I just bleed/Worthless broken losing hope choking on this cancer smoke/Four years back I wished to die selfish thoughts I can't deny

[Chorus]
Somebody pray for me
I'm bout to lose my sanity
I need a way to find the light
To stop this darkness after me,
Until the smoke clears (smoke)
Until the smoke clears (smoke)
Let the real be revealed
When the smoke clears
I can't go on any further
I can't go on any longer
Forgive me Father
All my problems right here at the altar,
Until the smoke clears (smoke)
Until the smoke clears (smoke)
Let the real be revealed
When the smoke clears

[Verse]
Still don't know where pain began lived my life a broken man/Never heard my father proud how his absence sound so loud/Miss it when we'd used to play, now them days, long gone/All that I could think about was running away from home/It ain't no fair my friends had their dads while growing up/Sending me money and making all them phone calls was not enough/Best be moving forward, Lord, I know You have a plan/Forgive my foolishness, it's just too hard to understand

[Chorus]
Somebody pray for me
I'm bout to lose my sanity
I need a way to find the light
To stop this darkness after me,
Until the smoke clears (smoke)
Until the smoke clears (smoke)
Let the real be revealed
When the smoke clears
I can't go on any further
I can't go on any longer
Forgive me Father
All my problems right here at the altar,
Until the smoke clears (smoke)
Until the smoke clears (smoke)
Let the real be revealed
When the smoke clears

[Final Chorus]
Until the smoke clears (smoke)
Until the smoke clears (smoke)
Let the real be revealed
When the smoke clears

[Outro]
Now I see Your greater plan
(Now I see Your greater plan)
Rising like a champion
(Rising like a champion)
All my failures turned to grace
(All my failures turned to grace)
Satan's lies now be erased
(Satan's lies now be erased)

[Fade To End]
