| Proud enough for you to call me arrogant |
| Greedy enough to be labeled a thief |
| Angry enough for me to go and hurt a man |
| Cruel enough for me to feel no grief |
| Never could have just a part of it |
| I always need more to get by |
| Getting right down to the heart of it |
| The root of all evil has been running my whole life |
| Dirty enough for me to lust |
| Leaving nothing left to trust |
| Jealous enough to still feel envious |
| Lazy enough to sleep all day |
| And let my life just waste away |
| Selfish enough to make you wait for me |
| Driven blindly by our sins |
| Misled so easily |
| Entirely ready to leave it behind |
| I’m begging to break free |
| Take all of me |
| The desires that keep burning deep inside |
| Cast them all away |
| And help to give me strength to face another day |
| I am ready |
| Help me be what I can be |
| Self-centered fear has got a hold of me |
| Clutching my throat |
| Self righteous anger running all through me |
| Ready to explode |
| Procrastination paralyzing me |
| Wanting me dead |
| These obsessions that keep haunting me |
| Won’t leave my head |
| Help to do for me what I can’t do myself |
| Take this fear and pain |
| I can’t break out of this prison all alone |
| Help me break these chains |
| Humility now my only hope |
| Won’t you take all of me |
| Heal this dying soul |
| I can feel my body breaking |
| I can feel my body breaking |
| I’m ready to let it all go |
| I can feel my body shaking |
| Right down to the foundation |
| The root of it all |
| Take all of me |
| The desires that keep burning deep inside |
| Cast them all away |
| And help to give me strength to face another day |
| I am ready |
| Help me be what I can be |
| I am ready |
| Come to me |
| Take me away |
