From the recording MADE IN HEAVEN
Lyrics
THE OUTLAW
The rules have been written in stone;
They’ve been passed down to you and me.
Step into the forbidden zone,
And you forfeit eternity.
All I have lost, I count as gain,
Because He died to set me free.
You want to wrap my mind in chains –
A pc sort of slavery.
When did I become the outlaw;
When did I become the thief?
When did I become the criminal,
Persecuted for my belief?
You never heed the warnings,
Pay no attention to God’s laws.
You spend all of your mornings
Putting makeup on your flaws.
All I have lost, I count as gain,
Because He died to set me free.
You want to wrap my mind in chains –
A pc sort of slavery.
When did I become the outlaw;
When did I become the thief?
When did I become the criminal,
Persecuted for my belief?
He didn’t come here to judge you;
He came here to set you free.
Now what are you trying to do,
Create your own morality?
All I have lost, I count as gain,
Because He died to set me free.
You want to wrap my mind in chains –
A pc sort of slavery.
When did I become the outlaw;
When did I become the thief?
When did I become the criminal,
Persecuted for my belief?
Conscience within, Creation without.
God is with me, there is no doubt.
What’s good enough for God
Is good enough for me.
