about

Recording this happened alooong time ago. Waaaaay back in 2011 at Mind Control Studios in Yucaipa, CA. Andy Burris took controls and kicked ass.

On this recording and, at the time, GPB was a 4 piece. We are now a 3 piece. Harmonies and "killer guitar licks" were provided by Jerry.

lyrics

hey. when's the last time u really preyed?
(talking bout) soules up, knees down, elbows pointed at the ground.
Hands clasped in front your face, begging for a saving grace.
can i get some relief with peace on earth. with love and grace for all our hurt.
can i get a second chance, can we do it again, can i get another beer, can i get an amen
for all the thoughts sent heaven word, never answered , never heard.
a waste of time, a waste of breath, if there is a god, than hes blind and deaf.
please. do you really believe?
(talking bout) time spent in worship, is really time well spent?
Hands clasped in front your face, begging for a saving grace.
will all your time spent in church, heal the sick, provide a cure
for suffering and broken love, like prayers into the sky above
you move
closer to god. farther from me.
