Currents

Life never stops moving
And before we can blink an eye
Months and years have flown by
You see over that we have no control
But everyday there's a choice to be made
To live for yourself
Or pursue the purpose for which you were created and made
It's not too late
Hours I've spent trying to think of how to convey this message
When eternity is at stake there's no time for second-guessing
So I write what I hear and see
This life is difficult and many of us are caught in a current
Powerful and strong like a tide as it surges
We make idols out of people, places, and things
All the while missing out on what having life truly means
Slaves to addictions we just can't get enough
And that hole in our chest
Well nothing seems to fill it up
See I've been caught in societies current for far too long
Now I'm reaching out my hand
Asking God to make me whole

Some nights, I think about the state of our world
It breaks my heart

All I want to do is get high by the beach
Get high by the beach
Get High, get high
Bye bye
Get high, get high, get high
All I want to do is get high by the beach
Get high by the beach
Get High, get high
Bye bye
Get high, get high, get high

Sitting in my room just crying my eyes out
Thinking of all the darkness I see everyday
It's all around
Turn on the news, another human being shot down
Somebody's baby never graduated, no cap and gown
Living in a world that be plagued with an undertow
Society want to steal your hope
Until you're drowning with and empty soul
You can't shine like a diamond if your heart's still made of coal
Too many are spiritually broke
Because they bought every lie the devil sold
I know the trend is to focus on what feels right
But a life without Jesus Christ will never bring eternal life
Why do so many try to settle for a compromise
Cause every time you embrace darkness
You choose to shove away the light
This is the mentality of the world in which we live
Suppress the voice of truth to justify more sin
Unwilling to surrender in a tide full of selfishness
Caught up in the current
Unaware of where that journey ends

All I want to do is get high by the beach
Get high by the beach
Get High, get high
Bye bye
Get high, get high, get high
All I want to do is get high by the beach
Get high by the beach
Get High, get high
Bye bye
Get high, get high, get high

16 years old
She never had a chance
Somebody sold her body and took away her innocence
America has dirty hands and the media is the culprit
Brainwashing the entire world with images on the internet
Music, TV shows, Youtube, and movie clips
That girl we're looking at is still somebody's princess
And sadly she may never know what true love really is
Lust is a current that destroys everything that's priceless
I'm sorry God
For spending so much time trapped in the current
A slave to my sin
I felt so hopeless
I was drowning in my shame just crying out for your mercy
Please help more people to feel how much you love them
And that you never let go
