I used to walk around like the walking dead
That’s until God got inside my heart and head
There’s nothing better than finding purpose in the pain
What you thought was a loss, God showed you it was a gain
Being sentenced to prison, over a dozen years
Had my head and my heart filled with so many fears
It took a little while to accept being locked behind fences
But the Lord knows I needed to be forced to come to my senses
Physically free means nothing when you’re bound with addictions
At the end of the day, your selfish choices cause many afflictions
I used to walk around like the walking dead
That’s until God got inside my heart and head
Now I wake up every day feeling alive inside
I fill up on God’s word, ready to submit and abide
My own free will was leading me to an early grave
Allowing God’s will in my life led me to be saved
