(Verse 1) You're just a mirror in my life And I'm embarassed to look, cause I'm not living right And I'm not living wrong, just kind of in the middle I'm caught up in my own self, man made riddle And I wanna live the life But I'm just a shadow in the light Hide in the trenches in the midst of a fight Like a little boy scared A little boy ill prepared Raised by women and left in the lion's lair And the hair stands on my back Cause I know exactly what I lack And the pack draws near to its prey You seem far away, like the sun Deciding not to come out today
(Chorus) - 2X Call me closer to you, ooh draw me closer today You seem so far away (far away) God will be along today
(Verse 2) I've seen the movies and read books about you But I still feel alone and often doubt you Cause people die young, most got cut short Girls molested before the first book report I saw my first porn magazine when I was eight Contorted my view of women, before my first date And into every state, every country of late No matter where you go, we all chase the same fate Slated from failure, plated for jail Hell is waiting, ride inside Seven-Eleven to trail yeah Home, I need a real home to rest Cause I'm sick of slipping in the darkness
(Chorus) - 2X
Getting closer to God, in a tight situation
(Verse 3) Todays of new But my habits draw me to walk away from you And it's so dang hard, all these girls And all these cars, all these bars, and all these stars And we all caught up And I was brought up to be harder than that I was brought up to not fall for the same trap And I wanna live realer than death Realer than the first man that received your breath Draw me close Lord
(Hook) Everyday I rise And I wait to see Your hand guiding me Why do I make it so hard?
