Good Fight

The full potential of human development is not attained without an epic inner struggle.  We must subdue the "faceless man" in order to become fully ourself.  Each virtue to nurture and develop has an opposing vice to battle against.  This is the good fight.



Creed - Good Fight


GOOD FIGHT - CREED
I give my all my everything
Anything you want I've tried to be
I tried, god knows I tried
Or am I stuck somewhere between
Who I am and who I hope to be
Am I fighting the good fight

Keep pressing on
Fight the good fight
Fight, what you know is wrong
Keep pressing on
Fight the good fight
Fight, what you know is wrong

I've come so far to fall too fast
As for? I can't look back I try
God knows I try
I shift my eyes to the sky
In the distance see the horizon line
She waits for me
Fighting the good fight

Keep pressing on
Fight the good fight
Fight, what you know is wrong
Keep pressing on
Fight the good fight

Fight, what you know is wrong

I give my all my everything
Anything you want I strive to be
Am I stuck somewhere between
Who I am and who I hope to be
Fighting, I'm fighting
Fighting the good fight
Am I stuck somewhere in between
Who I am and who I hope to be

Keep pressing on
Fight the good fight
Fight, what you know is wrong
Keep pressing on
Fight the good fight
Fight, what you know is wrong

Remember that
Sometimes I fall in between
The nights blue moon and the shadows
Fight on, Fight the good fight
What you know is wrong
I'll keep fighting
Fight on, keep fighting the good fight
Fight on, fight on

Faceless Man

In order to fully realize our human potential and attain our final end, we must choose to stand against the faceless man -- that inner weakness that threatens to cast us back into the void.  But we can't accomplish this by our own efforts alone.  The true face inside us needs outside assistance from the true light -- otherwise we may never make it home.       


Creed - Faceless Man


FACELESS MAN - CREED
I spent a day by the river
It was quiet and the wind stood still
I spent some time with nature
To remind me of all that's real
It's funny how silence speaks sometimes when you're alone
And remember that you feel
I said it's funny how silence speaks sometimes when you're alone
And remember that you feel
Again I stand, Lord I stand,
against the Faceless Man
Again I stand, Lord I stand,
against the Faceless Man

Now I saw a face on the water
It looked humble but willing to fight
I saw the will of a warrior
His yoke is easy and His burden is light

He looked me right in the eyes
Direct and concise to remind me
To always do what's right
He looked me right in the eyes
Direct and concise to remind me
To always do what's right

Again I stand. Lord I stand,
against the Faceless Man
Again I stand. Lord, God I stand,
against the Faceless Man

'Cause if the face inside can't see the light
I know I'll have to walk alone
And if I walk alone to the other side
I know I might not make it home

Again I stand, Lord I stand,
against the Faceless Man
Again I stand, Lord I stand,
against the Faceless Man

Next time I see this face
I'll say I choose to live for always
So won't you come inside And never go away
Next time I see this face
I'll say I choose to live for always
So won't you come inside And never go away

Again I stand, Lord I stand,
against the Faceless Man
Again I stand, Lord I stand,
against the Faceless Man
Again I stand, Lord I stand,
against the Faceless Man
