Circles

(Yeah, we all make mistakes

Yeah, here's some of mine)

Yeah, it's my life

Lord forgive me (c'mon)

For the way I'm livin'

(I'm a sinner man, all of us are)

Lord forgive me

For the way I'm livin' (yeah)

Lord forgive me, I know I've made a lot of mistakes

When you look at my face you can tell I'm ready to break

Ready to snap, lost, where am I at?

I keep looking for light but why am I in the black

It's invisible I've been mixing and twisting the principles

There I go talking 'bout my life, how it's miserable

It's pitiful I live in this prison I been in through

Tryin' to minister when I'm the one that needs to be ministered to

Lord forgive me

I don't know why I do this

I betray you stab you in the back like Judas

Like Peter I deny you, like I don't know

Tears running down my face as the rooster crows

I'm a liar living in a world of 'em

I'm dyin' sins starting to fill my lungs

Oh no, I can hear the devil of my head

Great, Nate it looks like you're doin' circles again

It's like my life is one big circle

I'm trying to go forward, but I'm in reverse still

It's like my life wants me to fail

Say I'm lookin' for heaven, but I'm headin' for hell

I wake up in the mornin'

My minds on me

Never said a prayer, Lord, never even noticed

Why am I so open to blaming when I'm broke

The moment I feel fine, I let the door close

Dealing with insecurity but not about myself

I'm having a hard time trusting anyone else

I treat you like a toy

So I put you on the shelf

Like I'll come play later if I need any help

And yeah I think you're calling but I don't really hear you

Seems I should be concerned with what I see in the mirror

What I see in the mirror's more than my apearance

I see anger eating away at my spirit

And maybe I should change, but I don't really want to

Unless I feel pain it's like I don't really want you

I know, by now it seems like I'd be smarter

The worst part is, now I'm right back where I started

It's like my life is one big circle

I'm trying to go forward, but I'm in reverse still

It's like my life wants me to fail

Say I'm lookin' for heaven, but I'm headin' for hell

Father please, I know I don't deserve your grace

None of us do, yet, your mercy remains

You were perfect, there I go running away with nothing to say

Lord, I'm ready to change

Take me, and mold me into something that's right

Sick of living my life like

Like I'm out of your light, I'm out of your sight

I need you to charge in

Take me out the darkness

And wrap me in your arms cause

Without you I'm just another phony

And without you it's like I don't even know me, show me

Pull me in the right direction

Need your life protection

Need the mic directed

I'm sick of living life like I ain't gotta have you

When in the end we both know that I have to

It's sad too

'Cause every time I'm falling away

I can hear the little voice inside my head say

It's my life is one big circle

I'm trying to go forward, but I'm in reverse still

It's like my life wants me to fail

Say I'm lookin' for heaven, but I'm headin' for hell
