Rebellious Life of an 18

from To Live a Life of Love by Josiah David

lyrics

Verse 1:
I tried to run away
From the church that I grew up in
Trying new things
Party every week
A rebellious life of an 18 crashing down
I could stop but why now?
I'm actually having fun in this town

Verse 2:
The disrespect that I gave to my parents
It was not me and they knew it from the start
A drink for a buzz just made me forget who I was
Yea it hurt
But I just kept
I kept going on
Who will be the judge to tell me that my right is wrong?
These hypocrites they cannot tell me that I am wrong

I am lost and I need someone to save me
Not someone to tell me what I need to do
Physically help me cause Im dying soon
A rebellious life of an 18 crashing down
I could stop if I knew how
I'm actually having fun

Verse 3:
Got work in my hands
But other things on my mind
Oh I've tried
I've tried to keep a one track mind
Been feeding my flesh
And burning my lungs inside
Now my time is running out
And all the things I've had in doubt

Hook:
But who will be the judge to tell me that my right is wrong?
These hypocrites they cannot tell me that I am wrong

Bridge:
Oh I'm drowning in these lies
Hiding thoughts under my disguise
Because I've waiting way too long
Fighting the shadows on the wall
I need love unending love
Is it too late for me to love?
Is it too late for me to love?

Chorus:
I am lost and I need someone to save me
Not someone to tell me what I need to do
Physically help me cause Im dying soon
A rebellious life of an 18 crashing down
I could stop if you show me how, God

Verse 4:
Oh I've tried to run away
From the face that loved me
Before I knew what love was
But still He wants me anyway
He died on a tree
To show how much He loves us

End:
My heart was lost but now its found
He picked me up when I was down
Now my heart is safe and sound
You're the only God that I can't live without
I was lost now I'm found because You saved me.
