trail to freedom

Christ offers incredible liberty that often conflicts with our traditions, thinking, behaviour, etc. 

this can make the path to freedom more painful than the enslavement itself. i felt the urge to get off that path and remain mediocre, in bonds. but at the end of the day, i still found myself wanting more. so i move forward, however slowly or alone.

fallen off the wagon

on the trail to freedom,

trodden under feet with balls and chains.

wave ‘so long’ to liberty

let it cast away to sea

slap the cuffs on - 

this is how we came.

we’ve gone this road before,

it’s simple: you and i want more,

it’s painful: opening our eyes

in this light.

wave ‘so long’ to liberty

let it cast away to sea

slap the cuffs on - 

drag us through the rain.

we’ve gone this road before,

it’s simple: you and i want more,

it’s painful: opening our eyes

in this light.

let’s go there one more time,

we need to show them how and why

they need to open up their eyes

in this light.
