Lyrics

Please allow me to introduce me
Half of me slave, the other half free
Righteous and sinful
Both at the same time
Iniquity and purity
Fill up the same mind
And out of the same mouth
The holy and profane
I curse all my brothers
Then I bless christ's name
I hang in the balance
But still I'm secure
I'm leaning towards evil
But striving to be pure

I stand between the saint and
Sinner, chasing after holiness, close
Enough to grasp, but still it's just
Beyond my reach

Who I am is in between
What I wanna be and what I am
Pulling from both sides
Humility and pride
One seeks to give
The other to be gratified
In any case, however
I know I'm in need
Two appetites in me
Which one do I feed?
Running fast as I can
After elusive perfection
No I'm not there yet
But sure I'm in the right direction
Cuz I see me at the end
And I look glorified
Justified safe inside
So I seek to be sanctified
