Well I'm walkin' in the shadows,
livin' in this daily battle.


Surrounded by too many people
interested only in doing evil.


But not me though.
I'm gonna fight for what I know is right


And my life will remain a testament to change;
I just can't live the same.



Chorus:


I Can't live the same old way no more [repeat]



verse2:

In the light of the day I will give You my praise.

As you strengthen my faith, I will never stray.

Show me the way; I will trust and obey.

Until the day I inherit a kingdom that will never fade.



Chorus



Rap verse:



I used to run around feelin' hopeless
Like life was a curse, like it wasn't no gift.
Like I should spend my time tryin' to get all I can get.

Do whatever I want like there wasn't no sin.

So I chased cash and passion, tryin' to cash in

My actions showin' the virtue I was lackin'
All the while the weight of sin stackin; pound for pound
until the LORD came and tore me down.


Here I was claimin' to be Christian, but not pursuin' perfection
or out aidin' the mission. Til God made me listen.

He humbled my position, turned me from
a hypocrite into a faithful witness


Freed from my old condition, a new creation.
Righteous in a wicked world, fleein' temptation.
The LORD is so good that once you taste Him

nothing else satisfies; you can't replace him.

It's a slap in the face if I live in sin.

When Christ gave his very life so I could be cleansed.
It'd be better for me to never repent
than to run back to the same evils again.


What does it profit? I'm like the dog who returns to eat from his vomit,
or like the hog that wallows in the bog after being washed

Me and sin can't be seen together at all.

Your commands don't stop me from doin' what I wanna do

Actually what I wanna do has been influenced by the devil's crew.
His propaganda tryin' to indoctrinate me with his agenda.


But all I see is your splendor and grace.
How You made a way for us all to escape.
Give me patience to endure the tests of faith.

I'm standin' on your word and this is the way I'll stay.



Can't live the same old way no more people!!!!
