MP3: Scavengers

Words & Music: Dennis Jernigan
August 10, 2012

What inspired the song?

I had many struggles while growing into a man.
After I grew up and realized I did not have to
be defined by my past, I began to go back into
my memories and retake the ground that had
been stolen in my mind. I realized I had believed
many things about myself that were not true.
I decided that anything that tried to rob me of
my true identity was like a scavenger that comes
to a fresh kill. My hurts and failures were like
the fresh kill of a lion that the lies came and
tried to take over. What makes me a man is
more than what I’ve experienced in the past.
There is only One who gets to define who I am.
By admitting that I have had scavengers in
my life, I was more ready to defeat them and
put them off from my life...and I began to put
on the truth of who I truly am.

Dennis Jernigan

Verse
Scavengers coming on a boat of crystal
Powered by the power of the thoughts they think.
Scavengers coming on a boat of crystal.
Coming like an angel but they're full of deceit.

Scavengers coming on a boat of crystal.
Radiant and elegant and oh, so wise!
Scavengers coming on a boat of crystal.
Wisdom over all but only in their own eyes.

Chorus
Will you believe them?
Oh, will you be deceived?
Will you believe them?
Better be sure of what you believe!

Truth will free you! Lies will blind!
Truth will free you! Lies will blind!
Truth will free you, exposing lies!
Truth will free you every time!

Verse
Scavengers tell you what you want to hear.
They tear a way and wear a way the who you are.
Scavengers coming on a boat of crystal.
Scavengers come in many shapes and sizes.
Once you let them in they tend to tear you apart!

Chorus
Will you believe them?
Oh, will you be deceived?
Will you believe them?
Better be sure of what you believe!

Truth will free you! Lies will blind!
Truth will free you! Lies will blind!
Truth will free you, exposing lies!
Truth will free you every time!
