Life Cycles

For three years I tried to put my hope into something that I felt inside.
Now I'm cutting all the ties with what I felt was right.
On next page of my life is where you'll find me now, no longer dead inside.
No longer bound to the pain that I felt.
No longer bound to the weight that I carried.
You saw me in my grave and you called my name
You saw me broken and you lifted me up.
Night after night dying inside, wanting purpose to feel alright.
Can I be alive if I'm dead inside?
What is life without you by my side?
When things look hopeless, I'll keep standing on your promises that cannot fail.
I'm not hopeless.
You won't fail.

Overlooked

I fought for years and years
I was blinded by my tears and fears
I was searching for myself
trying to fill my emptiness
Just wanted something to cling too
In my weakness proved to be true
I always overlooked you
You saw a fire inside that I was trying to hide
Now I know the fire in your eyes is just a reflection of mine
Winds of change blew my way
Removed the doubts and now I'm face to face
Eye to eye away from the pain
Saved me from being that which I hate
I feel it burning inside me
I was born for this and I will pierce the darkness
There is a fire shut up in my bones
Just like the fire in the eyes where i found my home

Giving In
02:50
|

Don't let your crown drown like the rest of you
I refuse to sink in your false refuge
I've been digging, digging deep
to rid my heart of all of your deceit
It's hard to think that you were the one
that held my head so I wouldn't come undone
I'm not giving up, I'm giving in
to becoming a better man
A war that I will never win
It will never end
My days were losing life
Peace was so hard to find
I was so blind
I hope for a better day, no longer an outcast
No longer pushing me away; accepted

Reckless
02:53
|

Hopeless, faithless
Used to live my life like I was reckless
Tried to fool myself and say things were fine
Tried to justify a life out of line
Voiceless, weightless
No matter what I say, I couldn't change this
No longer bound by the words of my mouth
I speak life so I live it now
Mind in chains, bound by adversity
No one deserves this, not even me
One key to one way out
held by the hands that set me free
When I found Him I found my place
I saw new life when I saw His face
Rise and achieve in the life that you lead
I tried to make it on my own
I've giving on to hope
Where do I run
Who could I tell
in this cold world that I call home
counting lines on walls
I was always set on giving up
Nothing working

Forever Forward
02:47

The shadows came in the time of dark
But I will persevere and I will not lose heart
I will set my face and embrace the invisible
Cling to my cross and bare my crucible
You have all my pain and you have my guilt
My soul is redeemed by the blood that you split
Now I walk upright despite the cards thats been dealt
I embrace a freedom that my body's never felt
My heart is gripped by your gaze
No other lover will come unto me
After looking back at everything we've been through, I'd never go back
But I won't regret it and I'll never forget I did this for you
My eyes are set and my soul is free
My heart is gripped and I've been redeemed
I have your mercy, I have your grace
I have the will to finish this race
I remain purified by your blood
I choose to war because of your love
I stand by your love
It's only by your love

Closed Mind
02:50

How could you abandon all your family
You turned away from everything
I was so young
Felt betrayed with no memories to hold
That broken feeling of being alone
all occurred for the love of the bottle
Days never seemed so dark
Nights never felt so long
So many years of feeling alone
So much pain in my eyes
while I'm still looking for your hand
Closed mind, open bottle
You walked away like there was nothing left to say
So many sleepless nights
just hoping you'll return to my life
From the bottom of my heart
to the bottom of your bottle
Did you forget you're still my father
Look at your sons eyes
Was the liquor you drowned yourself in really worth it
Just know that through think and thin
I will hold you close

Still Standing
02:25
|

I walked this cold world
Faced my own grave
It's a never ending struggle
an emotional maze
No peace, no hope
I saw my life at the end of the rope
Looked like a never ending pain
I thought things would never change
I stood at the end of the road
until I set my eyes on hope
My soul pushed into wickedness
Trapped in situations with the noose around my neck
Time is running out
The sand is at the bottom of the hour glass
Time is running out
Face my fears, overcome my doubts
Hard times; I refuse to go back
I fought through things that I will never forget
I lived to see another day
but things never seemed to go my way
A constant struggle, and endless stress
Suffocate in my own mess
Give me rest, God give me rest
Shoved to the side
Judged by the eye of ignorance
This is the last time I'll be buried in your hate
This has made me the man I am today
Taste your words before you spit your hate
I won't live trapped in your cage

Homeland
02:07
|

I will miss you where ever I go
The memories I hold will forever be told
I left it all for the sake of the call
The dream is worth it all
Things don't feel the same
but there's glory in the pain
I feel it in my heart
This is a fresh new start
Not sure what's to come
but I feel it in my bones
I've found my purpose
Even if you feel like giving up
Remember, this is the path that we chose
When the waters get rough
there's no excuse to give up
Miles and miles away from home
and I'm shipwrecked
Picked up and left it on my own
I won't look back
Miles and miles away from home
and I'm fine with it
Picked up and left it on my own
Not coming back

Destitute
02:35
|

I'm still searching for meaning
in what I've been believing for the sake of my life
I tried, allowed compromise
Saw things that made me sick inside
I hid lies, even closed my eyes
to pretend that things were fine
Why can't you see it's also hurting me
It goes against everything that we believe
So take my hand and come with me
Break free from this disease
You're out of line
But I acted like things were fine
I loved you through it all
I'll be there if you fall
Things may be different now
My heart still burns for you
I hope and pray each day
that you will make it through
Never forget you're loved
I still believe in you

Escucha La Voz

I will never look back and say that I never gave it all
To voice my sand and who I am
to watch the world fall
There's a fire in my heart
that burns for you
It's set ablaze and can't be tamed
Wish you could feel it too
We all pray for things to stay the same
There is only One who will never ever change
My faith won't waiver
Something inside me has changed forever
I was alone but now we stand together
My whole life got so much better
Speaking out; not being afraid
will save lives and break their chains
I see your eyes and know your heart
I know that you can feel it too
Escucha la voz
