Lead The Way


I got a dash-mount compass that won't direct
I got a 'get rich' guru that calls collect
I got a psychic adviser saying, "get a lifeguard
I'm getting bad vibes off of your deal-a-meal card
."

Tell me why their words ring hollow
Lead the way and I will follow
If you can lead me outta this maze

I got shrinks that send me to victim class
I got talk-show show-offs giving me gas
I got assertiveness trainers yelling, "shove, shove shove!"
I got no one teaching me how to love love

The more I chew, the less I swallow
Lead the way and I will follow
If you can lead me outta this maze

Up we struggle, down we slide
Scared to call on a bigger guide
I'm tired of getting snowed, speed the plow
Lead the way, Lord Jesus, I'm ready now now
