lyrics

I find this fear to be crippling.

I wanna burn, I just don't wanna burn out. Don't step on my own toes.

I wanna be realistic, but I don't wanna be imperfect, and if I hold onto you now I know its gonna be worth it.

And every prayer that I can muster seems to be riddled with puddles of anxiety. For some reason I struggle to believe it when I tell myself that you're close to me, but you are the most of me. So why to I find fear in keeping you close to me.

There is an irony that perplexes me and an irony that surrounds me, and it is this: I'm so afraid of failure that I'll dwell inside it constantly. Like my passions don't matter to me and I don't match my morality. This isn't what I want to be, this isn't what I'm supposed to me.

So Father God, please help me remember to be the man that I'm supposed to be. Father God, let me burn, but not burn, knowing you are the strength of me. Father God, I know your past blessings flow in abundance further than what my eyes can see. So Father God, why do I doubt there will be any change in me?

I wanna be realistic, but I don't wanna be imperfect.
