Since I Was a Kid
Shut your mouth, that's not my name
Would you be quiet, you're driving me insane
I'm not crazy, I know you're there
I hear you taunting, I can feel your stare
I've been running from your shadow
Since I was a kid, uh-huh
But I reached and turned the light on
That's what I did
I reached out and turned the light on
I'm not listening, sorry, what'd you say?
Oh, never mind, I don't want to know anyway
I've been tortured by your words
Since I was a kid, yeah
I said that's enough now
That's what I did
I broke the grasp of fear
And spoke when God came near
Though you're not welcome, I know you'll be back
But I'll be ready, surprise attack
Wise as a snake, meek as a lamb
Dressed in the armor of the Great I Am
I've been running from your arrows
Since I was a kid, oh, yeah
But I became a man now
That's what I did
I broke the grasp of fear
And spoke when God came near
I broke the grasp of fear
And spoke when God came near
Now, what do you think about that?
I broke the grasp of fear
And spoke when God came near
I broke the grasp of fear
And spoke when God came near
I broke the grasp of fear
And spoke when God came near
Broke the grasp of fear
And spoke when God came near
Would you be quiet, you're driving me insane
I'm not crazy, I know you're there
I hear you taunting, I can feel your stare
I've been running from your shadow
Since I was a kid, uh-huh
But I reached and turned the light on
That's what I did
I reached out and turned the light on
I'm not listening, sorry, what'd you say?
Oh, never mind, I don't want to know anyway
I've been tortured by your words
Since I was a kid, yeah
I said that's enough now
That's what I did
I broke the grasp of fear
And spoke when God came near
Though you're not welcome, I know you'll be back
But I'll be ready, surprise attack
Wise as a snake, meek as a lamb
Dressed in the armor of the Great I Am
I've been running from your arrows
Since I was a kid, oh, yeah
But I became a man now
That's what I did
I broke the grasp of fear
And spoke when God came near
I broke the grasp of fear
And spoke when God came near
Now, what do you think about that?
I broke the grasp of fear
And spoke when God came near
I broke the grasp of fear
And spoke when God came near
I broke the grasp of fear
And spoke when God came near
Broke the grasp of fear
And spoke when God came near
