The Limit (Joseph)

Down in a hole, down in the dark, how did this happen?
Fallen from grace, feeling betrayed, stripped and helpless
I saw visions of my life where everything would work out
But it's hard to keeping on dreaming when I am so alone now

I am a stranger, I am a slave in a hard place
No looking back, there's no escape, just the next step
I get tangled up in trouble trying to do the right thing
Speaking up for my convictions has led to my chains

Everyday I'm pushed to the limit
Waiting patiently for deliverance
But ain't no one on earth gonna do me, do me like they should
But I know my God is good

People come in, people come out, out of the story
Get what they want, then they move on without any warning
If I had a grain of sand for every promise they've made
I'd be sinking in a desert full of all my heartache

Hands on the bars, knees on the floor, head feeling heavy
Make no mistake, I'm keeping the faith, I will be ready
'Cause days and weeks and months and years could pass me all by
But my hope is in the only one whose saving my life

Everyday I'm pushed to the limit
Waiting patiently for deliverance
But ain't no one on earth gonna do me, do me like they should
But I know my God is good

Maybe My whole life's been building up to this (No famine, no fear, no fire, no flood)
My whole life's been building, building (No man, no beast can keep me from your love)
My whole life's been building up to this (No chains, no trials, betrayal or blood)
My whole life's been building, building (No king or kingdom can keep me from you)

Everyday (No famine, no fear, no fire, no flood)
Everyday (No man, no beast can keep me from your love)
No one on earth's gonna do me like they should (No chains, no trials, betrayal or blood)
(No king or kingdom)

Everyday I'm pushed to the limit
Waiting patiently for deliverance
But ain't no one on earth gonna do me, do me like they should
But I know my God is good
Yeah I know my God is good

No famine, no fear, no fire, no flood
No man, no beast can keep me from your love
No chains, no trials, betrayal or blood
No king or kingdom can keep me from you
