Tug of War |
| Momma praying for me |
| Grandma praying for me |
| Satan preying on me |
| Jesus waiting on me |
| 'Cause I’ve been straddling the fence it’s time to make decisions |
| I’ve been thinking about Heaven lately, don’t think I’ll get in |
| 'Cause I’ve been going back and forth I love the way I’m living |
| But I hate it at the same time 'cause I know I’m sinning! |
| And I don’t want to be like them hypocritical Christians |
| So I stay away from Jesus completely 'till I’m ready to give Him |
| Everything, but that seems like it’ll never happen |
| My girl coming over later, you know what’s about to happen |
| Then after some smashing I’m sitting there asking |
| If eternity in Hell is worth some moments of this satisfaction |
| Man I’m so back and forth! |
| I’m back and forth like a tug of war |
| I’ve been fighting for my life, like I’m trying to get my life right |
| And I really want more, and I don’t know |
| Back and forth like a tug of war |
| And I’ve been fighting for control, and fighting for my soul and this is war |
| I’ve got two choices |
| Both require pain |
| One’s the pain of change or the pain of staying the same |
| One of them leads to joy |
| Other one leads to shame |
| One of them leads to freedom the other one keeps me in chains |
| I wear a cross and give you thanks for my blessings! |
| Ain’t that enough?! |
| Why you want everything?! |
| Can’t you leave this part of my life untouched?! |
| I thought following you meant I only had to say yes once! |
| Now every day I wake up you give me some cross to take up! |
| You really want me to break up with my girl? |
| Now that’s too much… |
| I know what’s best for me! |
| You don’t understand my complexities! |
| See I gotta make a living so don’t ask where my checks come from! |
| Now I hear you talking, I ain’t gone numb! |
| I know I’m in the dark and I gotta find my way to the Son, 'cause |
| He calling on my name and I know I can’t run… |
| I’m so back and forth… |
| I’m back and forth like a tug of war |
| I’ve been fighting for my life, like I’m trying to get my life right |
| And I really want more, and I don’t know |
| Back and forth like a tug of war |
| And I’ve been fighting for control, and fighting for my soul and this is war |
| A trail of broken hearts |
| A man full of regrets |
| The thrill has left, the empty promises of sin sets |
| You wanna put treasure inside my hands, but you cease |
| 'Cause they’re clamped, holding on the sins I won’t release |
| I don’t know how to start loving you, and stop doing what I’m doing if I gain |
| you tell me what I’m really losing |
| You have to change me and my sins I’d never choose Him |
| My heart needs to see something greater than what I’m pursuing so |
| Is it true that you give rest to the weary? |
| Can you accept and repair me? |
| Do you hear me? |
| It’s so clear and now it’s painfully apparent |
| That I can’t have my sin and my Savior, they’re not for sharing |
| Anything that I lose to follow you is not a loss |
| My girlfriend my friends my money even my job |
| But sometimes I believe the lie |
| That God don’t provide for His child when they obey, that’s so cray |
| He calling me to freedom, I think that it’s time to walk |
| I don’t see every step but the next is out of the dark |
| I’m the filthiest of them all, but I’m YOURS if you wash me! |
| From that sin, by the blood of that cross! |
| I’m yours |
