I am starting to realize that I can do nothing on my own
Everything that I start to build crumbles into nothing
It's safe to say no matter what I try I fall so short
This unrelenting pride continues to widen the space between you and I

Is there a point in trying to change?
No matter what I do it always stay the same.
But I feel like this has been made for me
Is there something more that I can't see?

All I want is to let go
I try so hard; this pride still grows
Just for once to breathe in deep
And catch a glimpse of what you see in me
So many years of sorrow and grief
The bitterness I tasted in the face of defeat
How can I forget the joy of the mountain tops down in the valleys?

And even amidst the struggle of finding the man that you have called me to be
Your love reminds me that though I am broken I am still standing I am still screaming

But your ways are different and they call out to me.
No matter what I do, You always stay the same.
And I will have the choice to see
There is more to this life I'm living.
