Analysis of Make the Fort



Crystal HedspethThere's time to make a change from where you are at

The dream you have is never going away, where we sat
Go to work on it, just one step at a time toward the goal
For the Devil calls all promises that steal all that's stole
His lies appeal to all as the easy way but will hold a lie
All he wants from you is loyalty for your soul to yet die
If you accomplish your dream he knows this is your pie
What would he offer you if you had everything wanted?
Satan and all his demons mankind, they have all taunted
Nothing you really want that leads to heaven is really yours
Butt by God, Jesus and his angels they war to stop the tears
Help them help you as they enabled equally by your effort
Stay on the way to heavens door by whatever means your FortThere's time to make a change from where you are at
