I want the Real Deal

I feel at home in the longing of my heart
No longer a challenge to surrender
It's all been stripped away, so take it Lord
So break in Lord
Like You have always done so well

I'll find myself back in Your arms again,
Like it has always been, will be

pride

it felt like the worst disease i've ever heard of

flesh-eating and degenerate

i felt like i couldn't be myself, and if i was

i was put down

like he was the most vile of the exploiters of men

because he used the name of God

to get his way in, use and abuse

to exalt his own glory while exploiting others

for theirs, like a hidden tyrant that guards well his evil

to gain rapport from the laymen who are unsuspecting

of his beguiling behavior

i've experienced either the most elusively beautiful reality

or the most detestable form of sin known to man
