Do you ever feel like, like your losing grip on who you are? You're afraid to look in the mirror, because YOU DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT YOURE SEEING. God, I used to feel You when You moved… I used to cry at Your touch! I used to see You everywhere! But now, all I see, are broken mirrors.
I was a happy little kid, playing outside in the mud
Me and my friends, we were feeling the love
Mama knew everything, Dad was real tough
I felt safe in Christ, I never had to run
Later, my parents became another statistic
Im looking at the past, thinking, aw, I miss it
Maybe ignorance is bliss… I don't know
I don't want to be a coward, but this pain is strong
Everyone's telling me things happen for a reason,
That don't clean away the blood on my knees, but
In my heart, I still got a cut or two
If you don't watch out the darkness swallows you…
I wanna be known for spiritual stopping power,
But Im at the place now where I just stop and cower,
Beauty of Gods Creation, a precious flower,
Fading away, lack of rain, darkest hour
So tell me, whys this giant taller than ever?
I got my sling and stone, but his head ain't severed
I came up out the water, I expected to see heaven!
I expected to be a king!… Not still be here as a peasant.
My face is to the ground, and my soul is aching,
theres no one around, cause they all fakin,
Lost my voice crying out, my foundations are shaken,
Laying on my bathroom floor— dont know if I'll make it
THE JOURNEY FROM YOUR MIND INTO YOUR HANDS IS SHORTER THAN YOUR THINKING
BE CAREFUL IF YOU THINK YOU STAND, CAUSE YOU JUST MIGHT BE SINKING
Maybe this pain could be healed with accolades,
Get another medal and this man is made,
Ayeee, I got another award for my wall today,
And if people clap for me, maybe I'll feel safe
Maybe this hole could be filled by a beauty,
We sitting and chilling, she look SO GOOD to me,
I tell her, Your scars are safe here with me
Next thing you know, I traded my freedom for slavery
Maybe if I could find a way to always be remembered,
So people would lock me away in their hearts forever,
So when they look back at me, they look back with fondness,
Cause God knows my worst fear… is being forgotten.
Maybe fulfillment would come if I'm on an adventure,
Live a bucket life, so I got stories to tell ya,
Cross another one off, closer to satisfaction,
I live for the thrill, feel good when I'm actin
THE JOURNEY FROM YOUR MIND INTO YOUR HANDS IS SHORTER THAN YOUR THINKING
BE CAREFUL IF YOU THINK YOU STAND, CAUSE YOU JUST MIGHT BE SINKING
But I cling to the truth— that Christ is good
The bond that we have, its thicker than blood
Even when theres no one else, I can turn to the Son
Safe in His arms, never have to run
Recently, I went through a trial by fire
Before I can run again— it'll be awhile
They tryna break my spirit— the devil is a liar!
suffering glorifying Christ is an honor
Because anything I lose to follow you is not a loss,
A girlfriend, money, friends, or even if I can't walk,
I'm not cursing Your name, even if you take all that I got!
Ima fall into Your goodness, because You are more than enough
I'm not cursing Your name, even if you take everything that I got!
Ima fall into Your goodness, because You are more than enough
Who am I that You would have brought me this far?
When you see my brokenness and my hypocrisy, You could have left me on the floor!
But You say, Do not fear! I am your shield
