Song - “Friction”


Verse 1
He’s light; I’m darkness. He’s right; I’m wrong, and..
He’s bold; I’m cautious. I’m defense; he’s offense

He fills what’s empty, and he cleans what’s filthy (yeah)
And quite frankly, I confess I was a mess
(See I)

Thought when he appeared in my life, I would suddenly change and get it right
But in the middle of everything, I noticed that everything was looking the same, I just had sight

So now I could see everything that was living in me, and it didn’t leave immediately
But then he said to me, “If you can follow me continually, I can make you into who you could be”
(So I rolled with him)

But everything that he shows me is contrary to the old me; But is it really the old me?..
Cause every time it pop up and slip up, it seems to control me, and it holds me
(down)

And I’m thinking: “Wow! My flesh at war with my Spirit, and my spirit fightin against it..”
Resistance; I call that Friction..


Chorus
I’m trying to hide my feelings, because I’m at war within
Caught up in this storm again

And when I think it’s finished, it ain’t really gone, it’s still inside
Like it just found a place to hide

So tell me how to end it! I’m sick and I can’t live like this no more
It’s just gotta go Go GO GO

Lord I need to quit it! I can’t live another day with it
I’m just sayin it’s gettin in my way and I’m
(Tired of this Friction!)


Verse 2
Man it’s everything I don’t wanna be; died to the flesh but it’s hauntin me
Flashbacks; can it be? That I ain’t lettin go what was done to me?

This feel insane, I still feel the pain, and wanna cast the blame on old what’s-his-name
But they ain’t really do a thang; ain’t a thang changed; I just wanna make a change, so I call upon His Name (and)..

Anytime I get it wrong, He forgivin me; But when I try to move on it be killin me..
Cuz then I think I’m a sinner, beginning with the enemy condemning and filling my head with the sin in me

But, really, my struggle isn’t physically; it’s the inner-things, like tryina get bitterness out of the inner me
And all I got is pain in my memories; and it makes it difficult to love! Father deliver me!


Repeat Chorus
