dillon chase - bdffrnt (saved from conformity) lyrics

[intro]
jesus and his followers are in the world
don’t take ’em out
the world will perish they are salt they are light keep ’em there
with all its mess and all its confusion keep ’em there
but don’t let them be of the world

[verse 1]
they wanted
me to get in a frame
four corners all the same
if i never let go of that mode then it’s all in vain
second grade
a reckless slave
every day
swept away and hopin’ people’s love would never change
tried to please everyone but god, yeah i put up cards
but inside i was dyin’ findin’ out life is hard
i remember i cried until my nose was raw
my mom was strung out on that alcohol she won’t recall
when they told me to tell her bye outside the hospital
my life was outta control
what have i got into
i know my dad got high had me lookin low
this hurt had me in the dirt and this garden wouldn’t grow

they said
i would do the same
[?] a needle running through my veins
[?] my fingertips would just leave me stripped of everything
and the progression was so hectic
how’d i go from eight years old to so messed up
with no method to make me whole [?]
sixteen when my hurt was playin’ hide ‘n seek when it turned to anger
left home with my chest froze
heart cold but i burned with hatred
learned to layer my dirty nature
hide my hurt from a perfect stranger
bankrupt in my faith but
i was overflowin’ with [?]
it’s hard to sleep
layin in the bed [?]
collectin’ all my strength [?]
tears on my cheek was like robbery strippin all of me of my pride
i was destined for depression
he wrote about emotions yeah
just left out in this desert slowly coastin’ wheel was broken
statistics told a dreadful tale
the odds were far from even
convinced that every step i fell and fall down even deeper
my story isn’t fair i swear
’cause it’s full of grace
you hearin’ me on this record thia proves that i escaped
god’s promise is true
it’s refusin’ to be [?] redemption for those who choose to live our faith
i was seventeen i saw the ways of christ
lived out every day and night
’cause family took in this crooked kid
and paved the way [?] faith
and i confessed that god had rested dressed himself in human flesh
and was abused and death consumed dead upon that crucifix
resurrected to free me and take my fake id
said “don’t be like them you were made to be like me”
he saved me from conformity and saved me from the pressure
and showed me that your past doesn’t make you any lesser
for every convicted felon with a record cast in shadows
just understand the way that god sees you is supernatural
for every abused youth please don’t be slain by the silence
all the pain and the violence can change the day into quiet
so be different embrace it
the shame of christ just face it
and a life spent on chasin’ god is a life that’ll never be wasted
so be different embrace it
the shame of christ just face it
and a life spent on chasin’ god is a life that’ll never be wasted

[outro]
adaptation and confrontation
partic-p-tion, separation
in the world, not of the world
do not be conformed
i have become all things to all man
be indigenous, be a pilgrim
