Tell me why it can't be
Why can't I love the least of these
From my gated community
Why is it so much work to be free
I'm changin'
But I so long to be the same
I'm dyin'
But dyin' ain't easy
One step closer
To the edge, or to Your heart
Which direction is closer
Maybe I need a new start
It's not that I don't see
It's just these things I wish I could unsee
And to fix my eyes on Thee
It's just so hard to know I'm free
I'm changin'
But I so long to be the same
I'm dyin'
But dyin' ain't easy
One step closer
To the edge, or to Your heart
Which direction is closer
Maybe I need a new start
