In Character
by Blood and Water
       
Lyrics:

You may not like me when it’s said,
And you’ve heard all the facts.
I used to be a man who had it all;
Together tightly packed.
Since then, I’ve tasted failure
And I’ve found my need for God.
I’m still working out the details with my family, friends,
And all good intentions.

When my worlds are done colliding,
I hope we’re not so far apart,
But for now I’m stuck here moonlighting
To play a bigger part.
If it’s nothing but a joke to you,
Well, I can understand.
Know these days and nights and dreams of mine
Will help me become a man.

I’ve given up thoughts to stay slow or say so,
I can’t keep it up, not alone.
In the darkness, the light keeps shining.
I know I should keep on trying.

If life’s just a series of choices, then my purpose is found if I make all the right ones.
If grace covers my imperfections, then I pray that the Son will shed light to my feet,
I’ll hold to the end, I’ll hold to the end!
