Artist: Illogic & Blockhead Album: Capture the Sun Song: Blindfold Typed by: kirenamloh@msn.com, Illogic "If we say that we have fellowship then with Him and walk in darkness, we lie and deny the truth. That's pretty clear." [Intro/Bridge] I stroll through life with a blindfold by choice Hoping to avoid danger When I could just take it off and side step the insanity of telling all of my secrets to a stranger I try to talk to You every day Pray and digest some scripture Struggling between doing it my way And submission, allowing You to breathe on the bigger picture [Chorus] Simulated smiles flood the landscape Elevated pride dilutes a handshake (We talk with torn souls) It's difficult to walk the path and stay straight Guide my steps with grace to seek your face (Remove the blindfold) Wings spread hoping to catch the wind Even though I'm anchored in earth and sin (We walk with worn souls) It's difficult to walk the path and stay straight Guide my steps with grace to seek your face (Remove the blindfold) [Illogic] It's like I'm banging on a door that I'm not meant to open (Not without the sacrifice of making you my focus) Need to remove self from the equation All these years worked to polish perfect mask of patience (No more illusions) Smoke and mirrors shattered in the limelight (All false delusions) scattered from the stage because the time's right (Please use my music) to edify souls of the lost I just wanna make sure I'm ready before stars turn off (Look) I've never been one to apologize but I'm sorry for not nursing the gift I was given to show signs Allowing fear and pride to impede my stride Trying to keep one foot on the ground when I'm meant to fly "If God is light and there's no darkness in Him, then you cannot have fellowship with GOD when you're in darkness. Amen? You cannot have fellowship with God when you're in darkness. You will only be able to have fellowship with God, when? When you're in light." [Bridge + Chorus] [Illogic] It's like I'm waiting for some tragedy to force me closer (Misplaced passion in apathy this, wounded soldier) At times feels like a failure in your eyes So I dig deeper convincing myself that I can hide (Cried the Atlantic) Trying so hard to be a star (When I should be a planet) and bask in the orbit of who You are (They don't understand it) but I'm here with arms stanched again Just asking if you can wash me clean and be my friend (Look) I've never been one to apologize but I'm sorry for nursing the darkness in my heart keeping it alive Allowing fear and pride to impede my stride Trying to keep one foot on the ground when I’m meant to fly "Now-now that's becoming very important because at least you got to know when you're in darkness. So what happens to the light of the individual who just kinda want to ignore the fact that he's in darkness? But he keeps coming to church, and he keeps praying And he keeps giving and he doing all these things EXCEPT judging his life where LIGHT is concerned." [Bridge 2] I stroll through life with a blind fold by choice Hoping to keep my family from danger When I could just take it off Lead with an example of confidence and not seem like such a stranger We should talk to You every day As a family pray and digest some scripture No more doing it our way We'll submit and allow you to breathe on the bigger picture "If we're not walking in light and God IS light And we say we have fellowship with God who IS light But we're not judging the life that we're walking in when we're in darkness - you LIE and the truth is not in you."
