Lyrics Earth//Born - Convictions

Earth//Born

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
My eyes are blind.
My will’s withered weak
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
Honestly, I’ve been lying all along
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
