stylus (raymond mowla) - conversion story lyrics
chorus
i don’t wanna run away
but the things you tell me get me scared
and i never thought it’d be this way
is this true? is it true?
i thought you’d leave ‘cause i forget to pray
but it don’t matter just how far i stray
when i’m reachin’ for the one that saves
father it’s you; it’s you
verse 1
dear father
i know it’s been a while since we conn+ec+ted
but right now i’m feelin’ so re+jec+ted
and i know it’s not cause you’re standing far
it’s the fact that i’m not standing tall
and doin’ my part to defend this wall!
so how do i get up again?
livin’ so vile – you knowin’ when i indulge in sin
my mind is evil; a heart that defiles the cathedral
i’m barely standin’ reprimanded by your holy people
tripped out –
they smelling alcohol beneath my breath
i’m mostly staggering – so hard for me to get a grip
the streets will take me – i collapse as i attempt to sit
n0body wants me – even i’m disgusted by my filth
oh father –
was this the life that you had planned for me?
or have i strayed? too depraved for any one to see it?
i walk away, too afraid of what my fate might be
if you can save, guess you ain’t savin’ me
chorus
i don’t wanna run away
but the things you tell me get me scared
and i never thought it’d be this way
is this true? is it true?
i thought you’d leave ‘cause i forget to pray
but it don’t matter just how far i stray
when i’m reachin’ for the one that saves
father it’s you; it’s you
verse 2
fast forward!
i’m getting glimpses of the spirit’s power
wholly committed – watch the works of darkness get devoured
and resurrected to a life that i do not deserve
i’mma speak this truth with these endless verbs
‘til the ends of earth get the message: you’re
constantly seeking +
but the reason we don’t find the path
is you’re walking slow while we’re walking fast
it’s these poor examples in earthly dad’s
it’s the ‘good news’ church always preachin’ wrath
in these cults and clans that are formed by man
it’s the sinkin’ sand on which we build our plans
from these lyin’ prophets only seekin’ fans
i have a dream
it all started with the savior’s kindness
a holy love
with the power to erase our blindness
a change is comin’
from these prostitutes and drunks who find him
i was that man +
a desert land + now a brook of the finest
he guides the way
i’m like streams in his steady hands
i’m just the clay
givin’ praise to the master’s plan
he made a way
so the stray’s find the promise land
if you’re afraid you can take his hand
chorus
i don’t wanna run away
but the things you tell me get me scared
and i never thought it’d be this way
is this true? is it true?
i thought you’d leave ‘cause i forget to pray
but it don’t matter just how far i stray
when i’m reachin’ for the one that saves
father it’s you; it’s you
