Just In Case

There's still a way
There's still heaviness on my back
There's still a cut
In every word I was meant to say
There's still a way
You've been keeping me under your heel to change my perspective
You step back, just in case

There's still intention
In each of my words
There's still pain
On the cloud where we used to rest together
There's still blood on every step
Leading you my way
There's still a hole

In each one of my limbs

I'm a good Christian

Why won't you make use of that
