Word of life on savagery
I picked it up and took a swing
My pastor told us, don't you worry
Even Zacchaeus found his glory
I was a sprinter then
Living decedent
Pastor lost his position
Went down for pornography
So I found myself some ground to stand
Bound to be the better man
Cause I was a sprinter then
Living decedent
Wound up, in a holding pattern
Circled my landing in a lather
Unnerved I laughed, I planned the snag
Then went down for a decedent
Cause I was a sprinter then
Living decedent
Cause I was a sprinter then
I am decedent
I was a sprinter then
I am decedent
There's freedom to, and freedom from
Freedom to run, from everyone
There's freedom to, and freedom from
Freedom to run, from everyone
While what I did, is what is done
The baptist in me chose to run
But if there's still time to choose the sun
I'll choose the sun
I'll choose the sun
I'll run it back
I'll choose the sun
I'll run it, back to everyone
If there's still time
I'll choose the sun
I'll run it back to everyone
