The Temptation of Me from "Proud the Musical" (feat. Jordan Luke Gage)

I don't mean to come across ungrateful
But your timing kind of feels a tad bizarre
What made you think the thing I needed now
Was an Adonis with a guitar

Aced the quiz, destroyed the assignment
Somehow failure still attends
But I swear I won't surrender
My quest to where the rainbow ends

Jesus said
"No" to bread
Offered by the hand of the devil
Now it's clear
I've been here
Wandering the desert just like Him

This is my final test
To realign my destiny
And the hero inside of me
Won't take a bite of the apple
Before the sun gets warm
You have to run through the storm
So, it's time to beat the final boss
To be tempted just like Jesus was
It is time to face
The temptation of me
Oh, the temptation
Temptation of me

Sure, he's fine, as far as handsome goes
Bros can still appreciate their bros
Right

Fight the feeling, take control, and dim it
Like I've done it time and time again
God won't challenge you beyond your limit
That's according to Corinthians
Ten thirteen
End of scene
That's a wrap on David the loser
Finally free
This is me
Ordinary guy extraordinaire

I'll stand this trial by fire
I'll do whate'ers required of me
Tearing down every obstacle
Failure's not optional this time
I hear the sirens call
They can't entice me at all
Want to fall in love not fall apart
If for once my head can win my heart
I will overcome
The temptation of me
Oh, the temptation
Temptation of me

I know these things are sent to try us
And there's a reason why
For the truth to be discovered by the end
But the world will see me
When I can finally be me
When I no longer have to pretend

When it's permanently night
Step into the world, it's a brand-new day
When you can't absorb the light
And I will get better
You've come this far, now you're nowhere
Fly like the sparrow, Now you're nowhere
I will get better, The man inside
Like an arrow to the straight and narrow

Temptation come my way
You picked the wrong ex-gay today
Take away your illusions, your
Tricks and confusions forever
You won't seduce this guy
Satan begone and goodbye
Got to focus in and set my sights
I have less than forty days and nights
To defeat at last
The temptation of me, The temptation of

Temptation of David, The temptation of
Of the man inside
Of me
