[VERSE 1: TENSE]
LIKE A PATIENT ON A STRETCHER HOOKED UP TO THE IVY
HIS MIND TELL HIM THATS THE ONLY WAY THAT HE SURVIVE HE
PUT HIS TRUST IN IT
CANT GO ONE MINUTE
TRYIN TO STAY AWAY FROM IT
SO HE DONT WANNA BREAK FROM IT
X RAY STOMACH
YOU WANNA STOP HAVIN SEX BUT YOU CANT EVER SINCE THE FIRST DAY YOU DONE IT
IT WAS A TIME WHEN PEOPLE KEPT BEING GAY COVERED
NOW THIS GENERATION GOT IT RAIDING IN THE PUBLIC
OTHERS TRYNA GET PAST THE HATE AND THE GRUDGES
WANNA STOP SMOKIN BUT YOU CAN'T 'CAUSE YOU LOVE IT
YOU TRIED THE NICOTENE
BUT THAT AINT GET YOU CLEAN
AND IF IT NEVER DO, YOU FEEL THIS IS HOW ITS MEANT TO BE
BUT ALONG COMES THE PRINCE OF PEACE
WHOSE HEART NEVER SKIPS A BEAT, AND HE CAME TO STRENGTHEN THE WEAK
NOT TO JUST GET YOU THROUGH THE WEEK
BUT HE CAME HERE TO GET YOU FREE, AND THAT'S FREE INDEED

[HOOK: KIM CARTHAGE]
I'VE BEEN HURT, AND I'VE BEEN TORN
AND I DON'T WANT THAT HURT NO MORE
NOW I HEAR, AND NOW I SEE
THAT WHOM THE SON SETS FREE IS FREE INDEED

[VERSE 2: CALVIN]
I KNOW YOU LOOKING AT YA' LIFE AND YOU FEEL AND YOU SEE
THE WEIGHT, JUST KEEP, JUST BUILDING PRESSURE, YOU FALL TO YA KNEES
AS YOU SIT AND YOU SEE
YOU BEGIN TO AGREE
IT'S FACE DOWN AND ON YA' KNEES IS THE PLACE YOU SHOULD BE
FEELING THE HURT AND GUILT AND DON'T KNOW WHAT I SHOULD DO
I HEARD THIS LIFE THAT I LIVE IS TOTALLY OPTIONAL
BUT EVERYWHERE I GO, IT'S ANOTHER OBSTACLE
HITTING AND WANT ME TO FALL OVER LIKE I'M SOME DOMINOS
NO! I'M NOT TAKING THIS ROUTE AGAIN
AGAIN AND AGAIN, IT JUST LEAD ME RIGHT BACK INTO SIN
DON'T COVER IT UP OR YIELD TO TEMPTATION, NEVER GIVE IN
GOTTA PRESS TOWARD THE MARK OF THE HIGH CALLING THAT'S FOUND IN HIM (HIM)
EVEN THOUGH I FAIL, HE SAID I COULD WIN
I LET ALL THE OLD THINGS PASS AWAY AND LET THE NEW BEGIN
I LOOKED IN THE MIRROR AND I'M TELLING YOU I CAN SEE
THE TRUE MEANING OF LIFE AND YES, MAN I WANNA BE FREE

[INTERLUDE: TENSE]
YOU WILL NOT FIND FREEDOM IN PEOPLE, PLACES, AND THINGS. ALOT OF YOU BEEN DRINKING, SLEEPING AROUND, CUTTING YA'SELF, SMOKING WEED, POPPING PILLS, CHASING MONEY, OVER EATING, CRYING YA'SELF TO SLEEP. AND YOU FIND YOURSELF GOING IN CIRCLES DOING THIS ALL OVER AGAIN JUST COVER UP ONE SMALL LITTLE PROBLEM. LOOK, I'M A LIVING WITNESS MAN. THE HOLY SPIRIT IS REAL AND CAN DELIVER YOU FROM ANYTHING. NOT BECAUSE I SAY SO. IT'S BECAUSE I KNOW SO. I WAS A GLUTTON MAN. I USED TO BE TWICE MY SIZE. I WAS A PORN ADDICT, HABITUAL LIAR, PEOPLE PLEASER, SHORT-TEMPERED-GETTING INTO FIGHTS ALL THE TIME, LOW SELF-ESTEEM. OH, BRO, I CAN GO ON MAN. BUT YOU THINK I BECAME FREE ON MY OWN? NAW MAN. I PUT MY TRUST IN JESUS AND HE TOOK CARE OF ME AND SET ME FREE. FREE INDEED.
