Freedom

Rock soul

Different day and different time but the same stuff
Feel like you're goin' in circles, stuck in the same rut
Wanna be free from the bondage of unrestrained lust
I know the feelin', I been there I wore them same cuffs
I ask myself, is it possible, when I came up?
That accord a legion and still forgot where I came from
But I'm not sure, so I play it safe; keep my name tucked
And I go back to before Da' T.R.U.T.H when I played drums, yeah

Man, this life was so simple then
Just me, a pair of sticks and a silver stand
Youth ministry, Uncle Mike was a simple stand
From righteousness, teaching us life and about His simple plan
I discovered that life is so unpredictable
Who would have known it would go and get this difficult?
Can you dig a hole and dig a bigger hole?
And the pain of life is so cyclical that all you want is

Freedom to live, freedom from sin
Freedom to overcome and overcome again (and all you want is) (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Freedom to live, freedom from sin (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Freedom to overcome and overcome again

I know the feelin' of feelin' stuck in your old ways
Feel like you're always gon' be there even in old age
Can't even front no more, don't it feel like a tug-of-war?
Frightened and so afraid 'cause it wasn't supposed to go this way
You're lookin' over your life, like how did I get here?
Why can't I get out? This is my fifth year
Stuck in the same pattern, the wrong lifestyle
Wings of an eagle, but living life like a night owl, owl

Dwelling in a dark place
And you stumble and fall when you try to walk straight
You need freedom from addiction to those adult tapes
And freedom from all the stubborn habits that won't break
Lord, please deliver me, literally I'm goin' back and forth
I'm sick and tired of crying out on the bathroom floor
I walk away for a minute, and then I'm back for more
Moment of peace, and then it's back to war, all I want is

Freedom to live, freedom from sin
Freedom to overcome and overcome again (all we want is) (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Freedom to live, freedom from sin (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Freedom to overcome and overcome again (oh)

I'm here to offer you hope through all your highs and lows
Might I propose that with Jesus nothing is impossible
He can provide you with strength to get you through obstacles
He got the power to rescue and get you out the hole
There is a pot of gold, for all the pride that goes
Throw yo' hands up and surrender, know that the Father knows
You're on the winding road, but you are not alone
Hand Him the keys, and move over so He can drive you home

And do more than just give directions
He got the blood that will cover up all your imperfections
He got the keys that'll set you free from your prison sentence
He can raise up 'cause He specializes in resurrections
So give Him praise, and give Him reverence
When sinners pray, it's in His presence
You find the joy and strength that you need to make a change
Lift up your shackles, let Him break the chains, all you need is

Freedom to live, freedom from sin
Freedom to overcome and overcome again (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Freedom to live, freedom from sin (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Freedom to overcome and overcome again

(Oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh-oh)
To overcome and overcome again
