I've been putting on and putting off too many people And I'm getting old to live like an injured man, ailments and unfilled prescriptions, like the nose on my face Like a broken boat, a safety raft, and a love for the water Well I just can't decide To sink or swim, it's me or them,Should I save myself or go back for the others Because maybe there's no gray and I was wrong to tell 'em so And then maybe all that I've to do was done a long time ago CHORUS Because there was life before my life There was provision before my need There was redemption before my sin For the sake of the world I thank the Lord That the truth's not contingent on me Because I've been dressing up and dressing down for too many people And I'm a little young to live Like a troubled boy, a troubled soul, a fish out of water Because we're all just the same We're all just as good, and just as bad, and just as distracted By the corners of our eyes As our fathers were, and theirs before and all those before them, And still I glance around And with the way I stare you'd think I'd seen through a two-by-four And with the way I walk you'd think I'd never seen grace before Because there was life before my life There was provision before my need There was redemption before my sin For the sake of the world I thank the Lord That the truth's not contingent on me But I've been putting up, putting down too many things That I know nothing about, but I'm jealous of, holding pride as tight as I can like she was my only daughter Because there was life before my life There was provision before my need There was redemption before my sin For the sake of the world I thank the Lord That the truth's not contingent on me 'Cause the truth's not contingent on me.
