So this came from an idea I had that I was going to blog about but then I had the idea to try and form it as a song, so I did. It's very honest It's called confession
I want to be loved by everybody
I want the sound of clapping hands
Even though when I look in the mirror I can't stand
who I see
I want more money then I can handle
Lots of stuff so that I
can justify the empty hole that's growing deep inside
of me
I confess my sin
I confess my sin to you
I confess my sin to you
but I am so afraid of what you'll do
I put my needs before the other
I nail Jesus to the cross
I crucify him over and over I'm so lost
out here
I lie and say I love my brother
look at me look at how I take a stand
but I only do it so everyone will know how great I am
and cheer
I confess my sin
I confess my sin to you
I confess my sin to you
but I don't know what I should do
I confess my sin
I confess my sin to you
I confess my sin to you
but I am so afraid of what you'll do
I'm so lucky that you love me
you gave a gift I never could repay
I hope I'll be just as amazing as you
some day....

Thanks, Mike! I like it. I really resonate with the idea that what looks good on the surface can be motivated by a whole bunch of garbage. Thanks for putting that into words/song.
