Lyrics

Leaving the light Always thought I was living a lie Wasn't feeling it right Always thought I was living a lie Put my hand up on my heart, I beat my chest The chaos moving down and down, seep in my flesh The obstacles won't block my path, I see the test They can try and swat me down, boy, I'm the pest Only know what you see from the outside You can run, God laughs with his mouth wide I won't die on my knees, though my hands tied In the end, it's a roach versus a landslide Better run, there's a God And He's coming for me Better run, there's a God And He's coming for me Better run, there's a God And He's coming for me Better run, there's a God And He's coming for me Leaving the light Always thought I was living a lie Wasn't feeling it right Always thought I was living a lie Leaving the light Always thought I was living a lie Wasn't feeling it right Always thought I was living a lie The pest is always on the move, I ain't vanish Crush me with your holy hell, I feel no damage I can never stop my path, despite the panic The planet might be burning down Fuck it, I'll manage Green hills, I can see them smoking Big smile as the flames approaching I'm a beast, I can feel them poaching Stamp me down, but a roach keeps roaching Better run, there's a God And He's coming for me Better run, there's a God And He's coming for me Better run, there's a God And He's coming for me Better run, there's a God And He's coming for me Leaving the light I don't need a gun I can hurt you with my tongue And I'm trying not to burn out While I'm living in the sun I don't need a gun I can hurt you with my tongue And I'm trying not to burn out While I'm living in the sun Leaving the light Always thought I was living a lie Wasn't feeling it right Always thought I was living a lie Leaving the light Always thought I was living a lie Wasn't feeling it right Always thought I was living a lie!
