Lead the way

I got a dash-mount compass that won't direct
I got a "get rich" guru that calls collect
I got a psychic adviser saying "get a lifeguard --
I'm gettin' bad vibes off of your deal-a-meal card"
Tell me why their words ring hollow
Lead the way and i will follow
If you can lead me out of this maze

I got shrinks that send me to victim class
I got talk show show-offs giving me gas
I got assertiveness trainers yelling "shove, shove, shove"
I got no one teaching me how to love love
The more i chew the less i swallow
Lead the way and i will follow
Follow your footsteps through this maze

Up we struggle, down we slide
Scared to call on a bigger guide
I'm tired of getting snowed, speed the plow
Lead the way, lord jesus, i'm ready now
