Somebody said you better let go
'Cause they said so
But I could never let this thing go
Don't they even know what that means
They call me obscene
Say I wear my faith on my sleeve
But I ain't here to seek no glory
End of story, I know the judge and the jury
People always gotta ask who, what, when, and why
But never wanna step to the light
(chorus)
So I hear you say you wanna come and get some
Should I mention I got your attention
Know that I'm a man on a mission, my position is
Momentum, baby
Been on a roll for two thousand years or so
We've got momentum, baby
Been on a roll for two thousand years or so
We've got, we've got momentum
Been on a roll for two thousand years or so
We've got momentum, baby
Been on a roll, we've got the mo
We've got the momentum for show
Livin' on the edge of obnoxious
They call me raucous
I'm a freak, I can't stop this
Ardently enthused about God
No hand-me-down nod
You're gonna get all I got
High-steppin' from the twenty on in
Knees to my chin
I'm rollin' deep in momentum
Burnin' with the hard core flame
No shame in this game
I'm followin' my heart, not my brain
(repeat chorus)
We'll we've been on a roll
Cause we got souls that won't die
And this party ain't over 'til we take flight
You've been told that we come bold on this side
You ain't never known the dilly 'til we testify
Cause have you ever heard of turnin' water into wine
And have you ever heard of givin' sight back to the blind
It's undeniable we're droppin' the Truth on this track
Cause once you start an avalanche there ain't no turnin' back

Abandoned in exile
A veil to conceal
What on eath could be worse than
not to know what you feel
A piece of me still holding on
to what is lost
and gone
You know every liar will burn in my fire
and still I keep asking me why do you lie to me?
You know every liar will burn in my fire
and still I keep asking me what do you want from me?
So desperate with grace
A disguise to protect
Still no words to describe
what it is that I feel
A piece of me still holding to what is lost
and gone
Your soul consolation
is the time that goes by
and the only companions:
the grimaces of life
Did it hurt now to end here
or is the pain more distinct
Was it worth to give in now

These words are like paper ships
On the river of your attention
Sent to reach your ocean
And sink into its depths
Its water may help to unfold them
And its salt may wash their letters
Into the very meaning of who can see
The scene described right now
These words are like paper ships
On the river of your attention
Sent to reach your ocean

The pedestrian auto walkway
Rushes on and it's crowded today
See the jets as they jump behind you
And the light from the street it blinds you now
Neon buzz and the smell of Bombay
There's a lady who stopped; she's so afraid
And the business men fall into her
With black cases flying she goes down
You've got some new momentum
You better keep on going
Tomorrow soon will be your yesterday
You've got some new momentum
You better keep on going
You've got to move to make it all the way
So you feel like you crashed God's party
And it's winding down to doomsday
How he used to call upon you
Now the wind is gone and it's got you down
But He is still in the midst of your mayday
Crying out don't stop, don't be afraid
Keep on pressing through the changes
The momentum that's moved you will not stop now
You've got some new momentum
You better keep on going
Tomorrow soon will be your yesterday
You've got some new momentum
You better keep on going
There's one who's going to take you all the way
You've got some new momentum
You better keep on going
Tomorrow soon will be your yesterday
You've got some new momentum
Move forward always knowing

Somebody said you better let go
'Cause they said so
But I could never let this thing go
Don't they even know what that means
They call me obscene
Say I wear my faith on my sleeve
But I ain't here to seek no glory
End of story, I know the judge and the jury
People always gotta ask who, what, when, and why
But never wanna step to the light
So I hear you say you wanna come and get some
Should I mention I got your attention
Know that I'm a man on a mission, my position is
Momentum
Been on a roll for two thousand years or so
We've got momentum baby
Livin' on the edge of obnoxious
They call me raucous
I'm a freak, I can't stop this
Ardently enthused about God
No hand-me-down nod
Your gonna get all I got
High-steppin' from the twenty on in
Knees to my chin
I'm rollin' deep in momentum
Burnin' with the hard core flame
No shame in this game
I'm followin' my heart not my brain
Been on a roll
Cause we got souls that won't die
And this party ain't over 'til we take flight
You've been told that we come bold on this side
You ain't never known the dilly 'til we testify
Cause have you ever heard of turnin' water into wine
And have you ever heard of givin' sight back to the blind
It's undeniable we're droppin' the Truth on this track

Beginning to move
Slowly changing
Cells connect
The sum of the parts
Process quickens
Continues to grow
Never ceasing
Getting stronger
Getting louder
The pulse of life
The heart beating
Quantum motion
Power taking over
Energy flowing
Gaining momentum
Like the beat of drums
Like the beat of drums
Slowly decreasing
Decelerating
Slowing down
Losing momentum
Losing momentum

Why am I walking barefoot
Upon this road with no one around
I close my eyes to this decision
The night's like coffee to my tongue
Like waking up without a sound
I map the words out
Maybe you will say them
Won't you help me rise up
Touch my face and watch me try to breathe again
Would you let me do this
Burn down the final wall
Overcome me, baby
Overcome me, baby
Overcome me, baby
Overcome me, yeah
All I'm asking is to be alive
For once
Always I am mistaken
I look for love, I find a stone
Of all the seasons, winter befriends me
I come to you in friendship
And hold my breath against the snow
What are you thinking as I gaze into you
Forgive me the confusion
Forgive me as I realize my thoughts betrayed
You are the answer
Cry and smile the same
Overcome me, baby
Overcome me, baby
Overcome me, baby
Overcome, yeah
All I'm asking is to be
All I'm asking is to be
Alive
Overcome me (overcome me baby), baby
Overcome me (overcome me baby), baby
Overcome me (overcome me baby), baby
(overcome me)
Overcome me (overcome me baby), baby
(overcome me)
Overcome
Overcome
Overcome
Overcome
All I'm asking is to be

Sediment upon sediment
Lapping like waves at my spine
To linger in this fury
You versus I
Welcome opponent
You versus I
Negation in smothering grip
To behold and despise
Yet if I strain my eyes
I still glimpse an unspun
Mile of lies between us
So tread lightly
My enemy
Sediment upon sediment
Lapping like waves at my spine
To linger in this fury
You versus I
Welcome opponent
You versus I
Negation in smothering grip
To behold and despise
Yet if I strain my eyes
I still glimpse an unspun
Mile of lies between us
So tread lightly

You are the dark ocean bottom
And I am the fast sinking anchor
Should I fall for you
You are the scar on my tissue
That I show all of my new friends
Should I show you me
All we need is a little bit of momentum
Breakdown these walls that we've built around ourselves
All we need is a little bit of inertia
Breakdown and tell breakdown and tell
That you are the rain on the fire
Deep in the trees when no one was looking
Should I speak of this
You are a mirage in the distance
That defies the heat of the desert
Should I believe in you
These rules are made to break and these walls are built to fall
These rules are made to break us all

You are the dark ocean bottom
And I am the fast sinking anchor
Should I fall for you
You are the scar on my tissue
That I show all of my new friends
Should I show you me
All we need is a little bit of momentum
Breakdown these walls that we've built around ourselves
All we need is a little bit of inertia
Breakdown and tell breakdown and tell
That you are the rain on the fire
Deep in the trees when no one was looking
Should I speak of this
You are a mirage in the distance
That defies the heat of the desert
Should I believe in you
These rules are made to break and these walls are built to fall

With egos swelled, our minds are spent
So fixed on our entitlements
Yet we deserve nothing after all
An imminent system collapse
We've reached a point of no turning back
We can't keep on pretending nothing's wrong
Nothing can stop our momentum
The self-inflictions we've endured
But we can't stop begging for more
Oscillate between a rise and fall
The forces of a thousand years
We'll close our eyes and disappear

The world sags beneath our weight
Parasites, we suck it dry
Like rats lost in a maze
Stupid creatures born to die
There is no destiny
No higher hand of fate
No place in history
Just eternity to waste
We collide
Then break away
Our lives
Are just momentum
We attract
Because we can't
Turn back
It's all for nothing
Search for meaning from above
Assemble random events
To support the myth of life
It's just cause and effect
We turn our backs on reason
Deny our inevitable ends
Narcissistic hypocrites
It's our last defense
