lyrics

You and I live on separate planets
Yours is filled with uncertainty and panic

Mine is the great unknown, 
Gathered you are but all alone

And IIIII want something different

You think these drunkards will put down the drink of power
I invite you to remember the babbling tower

They’ll build and build till there’s no end
And God will confuse their speech again

And weee will speak a different language 

You say you are your brothers keeper
But can veiled faces and unclean hands heal lepers and meet the demands
You say you say it’s to show love is
Everyone’s works flying the trapeze 
But who’s looking out for these
Your love is lethal 

You know the truth but you participate in the lie
It took no compulsory force to make everyone pacified

Like actors on a stage they play
The role that takes their breath away

And nobody wants it 

I ask you friend who died and let them be crowned as king
Why is the tyranny where your supposed to be governing

The keys to the city hang from your belt
The burden lies with no one else

So why are you in your knees

You say you are your brothers keeper
But when there's no one to stand up for the weak
Angel of death at your door will you be so meek?
You say it’s to show what love is
Love doesn’t come from logical leaps
He said  “if you love me you will feed my sheep”
Your love is lethal

It’s just a matter of time
Before you make up your mind
Before figure it out
Hot or cold or be spit out

about

I am Pendleton image

I am Pendleton Chattanooga, Tennessee

I am Pendleton is my solo project that has evolved as I have evolved through life. I want my songs to be accurate in depicting the depravity of life through the lense of hope in something greater. I am just your average joe (well: Sam) who God has bestowed musical talent upon. And I am Pendleton is a way of me giving back to God and to everyone who has supported me throughout my life. Thanks! ... more
