Verse 1 : From the beginning you had the best of intentions, But what happens when your pride gets the best of you? Like a tide or an undertow, you didn’t see it coming, And now off from your pedestal, you’re pulled further under.
You use to preach with the passion and the love of your father.
Now that you teach from the pride and the love for yourself, (Scream) Leading all His sheep to the slaughter.
What have I become?
Chorus 1: Once again, I’ve been led further and further away. And I can’t seem to grasp the fact that you keep wanting more of me.
Well here I am, questioning my very own existence! Remind me of my purpose, Lord show me this is worth it.
In all you do, nothing can come through you, from the outside in!
With that being said, I’ll never join the likes of you!
Verse 2: How’s the weather up there on your pedestal? With the words of a scholar, but the heart of a fool. Your cup and your dish from the outside are spotless. But inside are so filthy of your self indulgence.
In your sight you are always right. But inside you fight to stay alive. Cause one thing that you may not know, Is where your going in the end.
Bridge 1: I know that these words may rip your soul apart But this song is merely a confession of my own heart Leave me undone, undone in your glory!
Bridge 2: Cause I was a white washed hypocrite! I said I’m not the judge but I did it the most. So tonight ill make a toast in your delight I will boast And I’ll walk back to to the feet of my king Who sits on the seat that can crush my own being!
