Falling Behind (I've Been Running)

Running through this wilderness, yeah, I'm on a pilgrimage
Don't know where I'm going, but I'm never coming here again
Tryna run away from the thoughts in my brain
But no matter how far I run, I will never be safe
I'm exhausted, I need a break from myself
Mind says, "do it yourself, don't need no one else"
That's a lie, I need help, I can't slow down
Feels like I'm going in circles, round and round, I've been-

Running
Feels like I'm falling behind
Can't keep up and so I keep running
Feels like I'm falling behind
So I keep running
Feels like I'm falling behind
Can't keep up and so I keep running
Yeah, I keep running, running, running

Step back for a minute, just breathe
Just breathe
Take a moment to catch some relief
Letting my thoughts run, I'm losing my peace
I'm losing sleep, my eyes burn
Maybe it's cause I've been crying, my mind hurts
Man, I'm worn, I've got no energy
My mind, it hinders me, I feel weak and
I'm deceived, thinking I'll feel free if I keep

Running
Feels like I'm falling behind
Can't keep up and so I keep running
Feels like I'm falling behind
So I keep running
Feels like I'm falling behind
Can't keep up and so I keep running
Yeah, I keep running, running, running

The fear of failure holds me back
My mind attacks, I can't relax
So I relapse, slipping through the cracks
I know I can't escape, but I keep

Running
Feels like I'm falling behind
Cant keep up and so I keep running
Feels like I'm falling behind
So I keep-

I know it'll never help, but I keep trying
Need to be still, but wish I were flying
Wish I were riding above
If I want to escape then I need to stop-

Running
I need to stop running
I'm right where I need to be
There's no need for running
Running, running
I need to stop running
Need to stop running

Why am I never enough for me?
Gotta remember
Performance can't hinder Your love for me
Still, I gotta do better
I've been working, been yearning so hungrily
Tryna keep You at the center
My mind wanders lose myself thinkin' lustfully
But it's to You I surrender
But it's to You I surrender
