I try to run from all I am afraid of Not knowing I’m running from you I thought I knew what was best Giving in to sin, I try to impress the wrong person Giving myself to men and not to my father I wrote on my skin to tell the story of a broken girl Wanting nothing to do with peace, the right life Sometimes I yelled at you telling you that you’re nothing, You are a liar, a person who loves to see people in pain Not knowing I was talking to myself, I tried to hide from the Light, the light I knew that was following me, I thought I could escape I wanted nothing to do with what I thought I knew about you I tried to make sense of this world, but I was stuck on earthly things You made me stop and realize that I’m running from the person That can save me from myself, from this world, from the enemy I throw my hands up to the father, tears falling from my eyes I don’t want to run any more I know where I stand I run away towards the enemy and right into your arms Father I am home, you’re the only thing I need, oh heavenly father I’m home I’m home
