Let Your Beat Go on - Brendan James

If He came down from heaven,
Cleared the lines from your face.
Said "So long" to your mistakes and questions
And start over again.

Look in His eyes, you'll find your own reflection,
A face of hardship and pain.
Your money and spent, your loves and losses.
They're not worth it again.

Let your beat go on forever,
They say we're made to live as one.
Let this need to fear each other not get passed on to my son.
Let your beat go on forever,
Let your fears down rivers run,
Let your silence be the music when your words are said and done.

Now faith lands you out in the open,
Slave to the man inside your head.
Your second chances, the very deep in rock canyon,
As you lie here in bed.

Let your beat go on forever,
They say we're made to live as one.
Let this need to fear each other not get passed on to my son.
Let your beat go on forever,
Let your fears down rivers run,
Let your silence be the music when their words are said and done.

I feel like it's people we're afraid to question,
Afraid of our heavens and our hells.
My mother raised me with strength and measure.
My father raised me too late.

Let your beat go on forever,
Yes, we're made to live as one.
Let this need to fear each other not be passed on to my son.
Let your beat go on forever,
Let your fears down rivers run,
Let the silence be the music when their words are said and done.
