acappella - war with myself lyrics

i’m at war with myself
the very thing i want to do
i keep trying to do
but i just can’t seem to do
the things i know you want me to
’cause i’m at war with myself

i’m going through a lot of things that make me stumble
attacking me, beating me, breaking me, keeping me humble
the word is good, but my sinful nature’s taking over
i need a light, can someone help me to recover

all i need is you (all i need is you, all i want is you)
all i want is truth (i’m in search of truth, the truth that only comes from you)
can i find the faith (can i find the faith to keep me on the straight)
i’m calling out your name

chorus:
the very thing i want to do
i keep trying to do
but i just can’t seem to do
the things i know you want me to
’cause i’m at war with myself
no matter what i try to do
i keep failing you
but i know that i should do
the things i know you want me to
’cause i’m at war with myself

i’m fighting in this battle like a wounded soldier
i don’t think i can bear this burden on my shoulder
the ride is rough, it’s going fast, it’s almost over
i need a hand to get me off this roller coaster

how can i get to you (how can i get to you, i need to get to you)
i still desire truth (i still desire truth, the truth that only comes from you)
i’m desperate for the faith (i’m desperate for the faith to keep me on the straight)
i’m screaming out your name

when the righteous cry out (when the righteous cry out)
they’ll be set free (be set free)
from the pain in this life (this life)
that brought them to their knees

in the night, a light, the smoke is clearing
the sky is dark, and hot, but i’m not fearing
it’s raging on, but i know that i can win this battle
eventually, the other side of me will crumble

all i need is you (all i need is you, how can i get to you)
all i want is truth (i still desire truth, the truth that only comes from you)
can i find the faith (i’m desperate for the faith to keep me on the straight)
i’m crying out your name

repeat chorus (x2)

war

scriptural reference:

“we know that the law is spiritual; but i am unspiritual, sold as a slave to sin. i do not understand what i do. for what i want to do i do not do, but what i hate i do. and if i do what i do not want to do, i agree that the law is good. as it is, it is no longer i myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. i know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature. for i have the desire to do what is good, but i cannot carry it out. for what i do is not the good i want to do; no, the evil i do not want to dothis i keep on doing. now if i do what i do not want to do, it is no longer i who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.” romans 7: 14-20
“for to be sure, he was crucified in weakness, yet he lives by god’s power. likewise, we are weak in him, yet by god’s power we will live with him to serve you. examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. do you not realize that christ jesus is in you–unless, of course, you fail the test?” 2 corinthians 13: 4-5
