Human
I wouldn't be true to myselfIf I didn't say I was a sinner
I have got to be the most sinful man alive
I lie, I steal, I take alot of shortcuts
I look for ways to make me better off
Looking out for number one
And yet, my eyes fill with tears
When I hear of a child being harmed
I get angry when others are mistreated
I see someone in need, I try to help if I can
Inconsistent, I know
But I can't help it, I am a christian
I worship Jesus Christ, I love him
I've felt his love, hius hand on my shoulder
And yet when I feel lonely, I fornicate
Yet I am disgusted by pornography
When I am feeling desperate, I lie or steal
I leave work early when it suits me
I don't always give a hundred percent
I work hard, very hard, and yet
When I'm tired I take the shortcut
What is wrong with me I wonder
If I had true faith, I wouldn't do these things
I know I'm not alone, we're all in the same boat
I know I'm forgiven, Jesus paid the price
I know I am in the lamb's book of life
By grace and mercy nothing less
I just wish I could shake this feeling
Of being human
It leaves a bad taste in my mouth
