Imma tell you guys a little story
Some might like it, others might call it boring
This is not a story of destroying but of restoringFor a few years, I lived a life of lies, deceit, and illusion
Leaving with heartache, tears and confusion
Walking through a path of mental and spiritual pollutionThe world offering me booze, weed and sex
Go ahead and abuse substances whenever stuff got too complex
Putting on a mask to just go through whatever what's nextI got sick of the chains I carried around
Showing off the bruises of whenever I got beaten down
Stuffing my face and screaming with all my strength while I had one of my several mental breakdownsI decided to give it all to the one and only Savior I know
I couldn't do it with my own strength cuz the meter was too low
Now I walk with the strength and confidence I thought I lost so long agoI might lose a few friends, might be insulted or looked down upon
But I'm no longer looking for human validation; I'm on the path He set me onThe world is no longer my boss
I'm following the One that died for me on that cross
