Bad Religion - 'Faith Alone 2020'

"Faith Alone 2020" by @badreligionband

Written by Greg Graffin
Produced & mixed by Carlos de la Garza

Lyrics

Heard a sermon from a creaky pulpit with no one in the nave
I paid a visit to the synagogue and I left there feeling blame
No one could tell me what to do
They had not the capacity to answer me
What the world needs now is some answers to our problems
We can't buy more time because our tender isn't valid
If your soul needs love, you can get consoled by pity
But it looks as though faith alone won't sustain us anymore
Watched the scientists throw up their hands conceding 'Progress will resolve it all '
Saw the manufacturers of earth's debris ignore another green peace call
No one could tell me what to do
They had not the ability to answer me

What the world needs now is some accountability,
We can't buy more time because time won't accept our money
If your soul needs love you can always have my pity
But it looks as though faith alone won't sustain us no more

(Solo)

No one could tell me what to do
They had not the ability to answer me
What the world needs now is some answers to our problems
We can't buy more time because our tender isn't valid
What the world needs now is some accountability
But faith alone won't sustain us anymore
But faith alone won't sustain us anymore
Faith alone won't sustain us anymore
Faith alone won't sustain us anymore

It's Songs like this that remind me why Bad Religion is one of the most important bands in the world to me

[Matt-ncov]

This version is masterfully done, I hope they redo more of their older songs like this

[MxMaxyImpress]

Bad Religion
One of the most influential punk bands in history even if this band already 50 years or even more
They still speaks truth of our world

[Jollanza]

I LOVE this band since I was 12.
Today I am a 32 years old man.

The longest relationship of my life :D

I’m 51 next month and have been a BR fan since I was 14. These guys have gotten me through more than I care to mention but I will say that without their music I don’t where I’d be. I’ve always relied on Brett and Greg’s lyrics to help me sort through stuff. Eternally grateful for their existence.

[vincentleblanc]

Greg Graffin has some of the BEST songwriting. The words and context are next level thinking.

[BrInKoPluche]

These lyrics are more relevant now than ever. Beautiful rendition!

[faronsquare]

One of my favorite bands for over 25 years now! Aging like a fine wine, I argue they are as good as they've ever been.

[zcarme]

My favorite band. Always has been. Always will be.

[sheerobin]

This song just broke open the damn to my emotions & fears about the world. Bad Religion does it like no other band can.

[adamwilliamson]

Quite literally evoked tears. 25+yrs listening, and I'm still amazed.

[gregorye]

Thank you Bad Religion! We need you now.

[brunobenaduce]

Bad Religion and the Greg's voice are the soundtrack of my life, i'm from Brasil. Cheers and good health to you all !!

[stefanoaquino]

Wouldn't mind a album in this style...in fact i'd love it.

[buckyhate]

It's been a long time since a song has given me chills. I think this has become my favorite version of an already amazing song.

[Cazvolaine]

WE NEED YOU SO MUCH RIGHT NOW BR. You are some the last bastions of truth in this broken world. Let the paleontologists of the future dust from the rocks the wisdom you will leave us with.

[alexanderweck]

45 now and the same love for BR and the same experiences!!! Best regards from Germany

[volvlov]

One of the best bands ever to walk the earth.

[fabinmise]

This song resume the hopeless situation of our present time....

[radiogagaradiogugu]

Bad Religion .... A Legend ... The Last (Great) Band....
