Текст Convictions – Earth//Born
Текст:
I feel the earth suffocating me
‘Cause I was born to make mistakes.
I’ll live and learn, lead and love.
I’ve been disregarding the greatest discoveries.
I am the flaw. I am the fake.
I’m not afraid to admit that I was wrong.
Honestly, I was lying to myself.
Honestly, I’ve been lying all along.
It’s just nobody in this world seems to be listening.
You see, we’re selfish creatures with dead-end virtues just digging our own graves.
Although this path is walked alone, if it’s by faith and not by sight you’ll never go astray.
God, I’m perfectly incomplete.
God, I repeat and repeat.
God, I’ll let the truth be told, I’ve lost my soul to the world.
I’m not afraid to admit that I was wrong.
Honestly, I was lying to myself.
Honestly, I’ve been lying
All along I’ve been hiding behind my faith.
I’m not that strong, conforming so that I can relate.
You would give anything to leave this place.
What will it take for you to realize you’re better than this?
Was this all just a part of your plan to question everything I am?
Reborn. Reclaimed. Saved from the delusions of man.
I am unworthy of Your grace, the forgiveness You shed, every time I ignore Your voice
And just turn away.
Please understand I’m not that man.
I was just a runaway.
I’m not afraid to admit that I was wrong.
Honestly, I was lying to myself.
All along I’ve been hiding behind my faith.
I’m not that strong, conforming so that I can relate.
Judgements come, they come from every move I make.
All along my faith has been my crutch, my escape.
I’ve been taking my forgiveness for granted.
