Livin' 4

Oh no, I thought it'd never come
That day that I tell that I gotta run
Run, run back to the Savior
To my labor, 'cause His word is razor sharp
I forgot I had it in my heart

I gotta do a clean sweep from the spot
I drop, everything that ain't clean
Don't take it for being mean
A brother's gotta fulfill his dreams, you heard me?

You made my toes, bring my balance to the floor
You made my feet walk right over to your door (I know)
You had my ankles, tangled, and puzzled
You had my knees to the point they'd buckle (uh, what you doing to me, uh?)

The light of day hadn't stumbled over your way
Couldn't wait for the nighttime, the high time, the right time
Bein' as it was, we had to close the door
It's like turnin' away from a million bucks
But I can't see you no more

It's like the cold of a lonely night
The draft of a window not shut tight
I've got a hunger for bein' right
That's what I'm livin' for, I'm livin' for
Enticed by the things you do
It's a one way ticket to devil's hell foolin' with you
My soul wants to be true
That's what I'm livin' for, I'm livin' for

You had my legs on the verge of virtual restrainer
I could not move without permission from my trainer
You had my arms and hands wrapped around your lust
You made my heart buzz (mm, I want you to stay with me, c'mon)

The light of day hadn't stumbled over your way (you couldn't wait)
Couldn't wait for the nighttime, the high time, the right time
Bein' as it was, we had to close the door
It's like turning away from a million bucks
But I can't see you no more

It's like the cold of a lonely night
The draft of a window not shut tight
I've got a hunger for bein' right
That's what I'm livin' for, I'm livin' for
Enticed by the things you do
It's a one way ticket to devil's hell, foolin' with you
My soul wants to be true
That's what I'm livin' for, I'm livin' for

I'd give my life
Not under temptation, nor condemnation
For my salvation is more important to me

It's like the cold of a lonely night
The draft of a window not shut tight
I've got a hunger for bein' right (got a hunger for bein' right)
That's what I'm livin' for, I'm livin' for (it's what I'm livin' for)
Enticed by the things you do (all my days)
It's a one way ticket to devil's hell, foolin' with you (watch me, Lord)
My soul wants to be true
That's what I'm livin' for, I'm livin' for

It's like the cold of a lonely night
The draft of a window not shut tight (I don't want it no more, I don't want it no more)
I've got a hunger for being right (I can't take it no more, I can't stand it no more)
That's what I'm livin' for, I'm livin' for (God, you need to pull me away from this)
Enticed by the things you do
It's a one way ticket to devil's hell, foolin' wit you (I just can't go, I can't go there no more)
My soul wants to be true (don't try to take me there)
That's what I'm livin' for, I'm livin' for (no, no, no, I can't go there)

It's like the cold of a lonely night
The draft of a window not shut tight
