There were times when I questioned my reasons
Thought I wouldn't last
Seemed the hand of God held my head
Underwater
Somehow I fought back

It's still not over yet
No, it won't let me quit

Found myself more than just once
Praying down on my knees
My search for answers only led to more questions
Sometimes for faith you've got to bleed

By now I've bled my share
Now it's my turn to redeem

When [bad word] my way, I won't be scared
I've been waiting all my life
Pain has prepared me for the moment of [bad word] 
And the [bad word] test of time

Give all you have because you believe
Sell your mortal soul
And if you're not a predator then, oh - you better pray
Bet it all now or fold

But there's still a danger there
Don't [bad word] one of them

When [bad word] my way, I won't be scared
I've been waiting all my life
Pain has prepared me for the moment of [bad word] 
And the [bad word] test of time

For all I've done - some good some bad
Don't hang me just yet
Judge me not on one thing I've done
See my whole life instead

When [bad word] my way, I won't be scared
I've been waiting all my life
Pain has prepared me for the moment of [bad word] 
And the [bad word] test of time
