Thrive

Everyday is a test of my faith

Building back up from my unkept ways

Here, on Earth, where suffering pays your fare to stay

And when we're gone they'll call to us from way beyond

In and out, like a tourist

Same flesh, bones, but they feel foreign

I'm still mourning when I wake up

Just died to the body before this

Still bent on keeping me slave, but

I'm focused on what's important

I'm focused on what's important

Back in this place again

Drowning in shame and shadows of mistakes I did

I know a heavy price comes from me wasting gifts

Fear I won't feel love, grace again

Flawed man, woman, I relate to them

Judgement, the same thing as self-hatred

We're all human, conditioning for a race that has no finishing

And when we're gone, I know they learn from all our wrongs

In and out, like a tourist

Same flesh, bones, but they feel foreign

I'm still mourning when I wake up

Just died to the body before this

Still bent on keeping me slave, but

I'm focused on what's important

I'm focused on what's important
