  • Newsboys Newsboys - Cornelius Lyrics

           

    And every generation's got
    The fearless few who can't be bought
    They don't take polls or look around
    They act on truth, and then they stand their ground

    Come up and see the world stripped bare
    The free indeed
    They breathe a rarified air
    Yeah, they got spirit
    Yeah, they got game
    And some get christened
    With a righteous-sounding name

    Cornelius

    And every generation knows
    The doers do, the posers pose
    'Cause every time the plop goes fizz
    Another yes-man gets his

    Come up and see the big man's boss
    The mind clears out when you're taking up the cross
    Yeah, his burden's easy
    No, it don't chafe
    It's God's safe harbor
    Why play it safe?

    Cornelius

    Core-strong like a centurion
    I wanna be Cornelius
    Core-strong like a centurion
    I wanna be Cornelius
    His kneel is real
    His kneel is real
    What rhymes with Cornelius?
    Helium

    The "cor" is before a kneel, a kneel
    The "i" is an "e" in us, in us
    He's ready to fight but not to fuss
    We like, we like Cornelius

    And history proves the axiom
    Surface skimmers choke on scum
    Who's calling deep?
    Who opens wide?
    Who put the just in justified?

    Check, check it out - the view you get
    It's God's high-wire
    There isn't any net
    Show a little spirit
    Show you got game
    Show you know
    We know, we know
    You know what's in a name

    He's ready to fight
    But not to fuss
    Cornelius

    He isn't a wuss
    He never was
    Cornelius
