Romans 3:23 for all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God
I wake up everyday ready to make the change
Flip my life upside down and turn it all the way around
I get down on one knee and bow my head silently
And pray to the lord above for a little pick me up
I know I haven't been without any fault or sin
I steal I cheat and I lie then I pretend it was all alright
And since I can't rewind it I humbly beg for your guidance
Please forgive me for all I've done signed your unfaithful son
At some point we've all lost our way strayed from our fathers grace
But if we listen close he's calling all of our names
Cause no matter how deep of a hole we have dug
He will always be right there to pull us right, right back up
Just like he did for Peter in Matthew chapter 14
When Pete no longer believed and began to start to sink
And just think he got to witness the greatness of that man Jesus
Yet not even he had the strength to not become somewhat faithless
So where does that leave me as my feet start to bleed
Wandering around this world trying to understand my own beliefs
Knowing I'm not the only one that feels like I'm traveling all alone
Down these roads so dark and cold leading me toward a hellish home
I fake a smile for all to see pretending like I'm not hurting
But down inside is a pain so deep that it'd cripple the knees of the great Hercules
I feel like my life is like a game of chess my opponent Bobby Fisch leaving me feeling hopeless
I wake up everyday ready to make the change
Flip my life upside down and turn it all the way around
I get down on one knee and bow my head silently
And pray to the lord above for a little pick me up
I know I haven't been without any fault or sin
I steal I cheat and I lie then I pretend it was all alright
And since I can't rewind it I humbly beg for your guidance
Please forgive me for all I've done signed your unfaithful son
With every step I take I keep making another mistake
I won't be contained like a runaway train
I'm outta control like a turbulent plane
I feel like my back is up against a wall
First I stumble then I fall
Tryin to run before I crawl
But I look over my shoulder and see the righteous path again
And finally remember the Bible is my road map away from sin
All 66 books contain everything I'll need
So like some kind of GPS I choose to let them take the lead
But soon after I hit some cross roads gotta decide which way to go
It doesn't seem fair to have to make this decision on my own
How am I suppose to know which way takes me to the righteous home
I guess I won't I'll just have to hope I choose the right one and don't choke
Now it's time gotta go for broke and choose an option to save my soul
Or take a seat in the front row and watch as things start to unfold
No special effects inside this show it's outta my control I'm just another lost soul
I wake up everyday ready to make the change
Flip my life upside down and turn it all the way around
I get down on one knee and bow my head silently
And pray to the lord above for a little pick me up
I know I haven't been without any fault or sin
I steal I cheat and I lie then I pretend it was all alright
And since I can't rewind it I humbly beg for your guidance
Please forgive me for all I've done signed your unfaithful son
I recall a simple verse in the beginning of the righteous word
That will remove all this pain and hurt that has me feeling I am cursed
Joshua chapter 1 verse 9 is where they reside
Hopefully they can clear my mind and help me through this fight called life
The lord told him to be confident in everything that he did
And kept his spirts high with his encouragement
Now the name is the same but the story has changed
I'm not looking to be made great I'm only looking to be saved
Cause this time I feel like I'm goin insane
I can't undo my wrongful deeds but hopefully my slate can be cleaned
At least that will be a morally victory and will finally put my mind at ease
Then I'll give all I have to get off this unrighteous track
I'm sick of being in the back of the pack chasing dreams that'll never last
Like if I beat them I'll be the greatest that has ever lived
Except for the sins I'll have to commit on my way to a moral-less win
So it's time to break free track down my destiny
Lord here is the keys it's about time I gave you the lead
I wake up everyday ready to make the change
Flip my life upside down and turn it all the way around
I get down on one knee and bow my head silently
And pray to the lord above for a little pick me up
I know I haven't been without any fault or sin
I steal I cheat and I lie then I pretend it was all alright
And since I can't rewind it I humbly beg for your guidance
Please forgive me for all I've done signed your unfaithful son
