Russ Taff Inside Look
He had such good intentions
High finance dreams
Gonna build the kingdom
Doing his gospel thing
Now he's learning to talk
A real good game
He knows all the right cliches
But good intentions don't get his quota inside
When did it start to change?
Compromise for the dollar's sake?
Chorus:
Have you really taken an inside look?
Are you hearing what your actions say?
Have you really taken an inside look?
Do you think that God would do it that way?
Now he sits behind a big oak desk
And he's talking on the phone
Spinning wheels, making deals
Just see how far he's come
He says he hasn't really changed
It's all for the sake of the dream
Just doing what he has to do
The end justifies the means
Cause when push comes to shove
You better look out for number one
Repeat Chorus
Oh Lord, don't let us waste our lives
Trying to build self-serving dreams
Religious schemes
And Lord, don't let us fool ourselves
Hiding what we really mean
Honesty
Lord, help us see integrity
