I Used To Be Like You
I used to be like you
Digging, searching, scratching for the truth
I thought my mind was made up
Didn't think I'd need to wake up
Til it only left a hole deep inside
I used to lie awake
Hoping there's salvation in the skies
Well they say there's someone up there
Some see love and some say unfair
Til' the thunder sounds
And the critiques leave the room
Now I'm walking on a road
Only Heaven could've shown
And I'm starting to see the light
And I'm jumping on in and the water it feels just fine
And I know what you would say
"I don't wanna go that way"
I remember what that was like
Cause I used to be like you
Oh just like you, like you
I used to believe a lie
(A lie, it's just a little lie)
That some of us find other ways and that's alright
You go your way I'll go my way
I made truth a two-way highway
Til' it caught my eye
And I couldn't look away
Now I'm walking on a road
Only Heaven could've shown
And I'm starting to see the light
And I'm jumping on in and the water it feels just fine
And I know what you would say
"I don't wanna go that way"
I remember what that was like
Cause I used to be just like you
I don't wanna live a fairytale while I'm on the ground
Maybe everyone's just different
(I was just like you)
Who's to say, who's to say you got it all figured out somehow
(Oh no)
Used to be that way
Thought I'd never change
Oh I used to be that way
There ain't nothing like Jesus Christ
My Love, My Lord, My Shining Light
(Ah I used to, and I used to, yea)
You can hold onto your selfish pride, but
There ain't nothing like Jesus Christ
Til He caught my eye
And I couldn't look away
Now I'm walking on a road
Only Heaven could've shown
And I'm starting to see the light
And I'm jumping on in and the water it feels just fine
(Feels just so fine)
And I know what you would say
"I don't wanna go that way"
I remember what that was like
Cause I used to be
Oh I used to be
I used to be like you
Oh just like you, like you, like you
Used to be
Oh just like you, like you, like you yea
Digging, searching, scratching for the truth
I thought my mind was made up
Didn't think I'd need to wake up
Til it only left a hole deep inside
I used to lie awake
Hoping there's salvation in the skies
Well they say there's someone up there

Oh just like you, like you, like you
Used to be
Oh just like you, like you, like you yea
