Runnin' (feat. HP)

I've fallen, slipped, failed and sinned
Run in the opposite direction, it's got me pinned
I see no escape, my strength is failin'
Keep tryin' harder, why do I keep handlin'
This situation in this manner
You're the only one who could save this dancer
Danicin' with lust, how foolish am I
God how many times have I had sex in my mind
But you don't count my sins against me
I've been set free yet I feel like you'll arrest me
For all my short comings, far from your perfection
I've nailed you to that cross, I've lost connection
Website after website objectifying women
Every click scroll and type, I head down the path of ruin
Why do I constantly act so irrespondibly
This thing that's got me stuck is called pornography

I'm runnin' from truth, runnin' from you
I don't know what to do, God get me through
I'm runnin' from truth, runnin' away
Seems to be no escape, show me the right way

There she goes again, tellin' me she wants me
It ain't real yet, her seductive movement makes me lust she
Looks at me with her innocent eyes, yet behind
This sex scene there's no pride, she's all torn up inside
The whole thing is a lie, but one that I fall into
Home all by myself what else to do but fall with you
I don't have an answer to this problem that has to be solved
It is not mathematically simplified at all.
I try to climb over, break through, or walk around this sin wall
But the wall is falling down, now I'm strugglin' to crawl
Both my sin and my selfishness have kept me from you
Both my sin and my selfishness have kept me subdued to defeat
God I'm on my knees, begging you to give me a new heart I can't sleep
Now I'm sleeping just fine it's gotten so bad I don't feel shame
Take my sin and put it in the grave, please

I'm runnin' from truth, runnin' from you
I don't know what to do, God get me through
I'm runnin' from truth, runnin' away
Seems to be no escape, show me the right way

Now you predestined me, elected me and saved me from death
Resurrected Thee and made sure he would be my breath
Nothing can hold back this power that's inside of my chest
I'm not worried at all when I die in peace I will rest
Now my desires have changed, call it an exchange
I let go of my sin, he's broken my chains
You're the reason death is beaten now I'm livin' for your kingdom
I'm a slave to freedom

I am runnin' towards truth, runnin' towards you
I finally know what to do, you got me through
I'm runnin' towards truth, runnin' to faith
I've been remade, you've shown me the right way
I am runnin' towards truth, runnin' towards you
I finally know what to do, you got me through
I'm runnin' towards truth, runnin' to faith
I've been remade, you've shown me the right way
