Lyrics
So many times I just wanted to run away
Expresses the desire to escape from challenging situations.
Leave everything that I know so I wouldn’t face
Contemplating leaving behind familiar things to avoid facing difficulties.
The people and the problems that bring the deepest pain
Refers to people and problems causing deep pain.
I wanted to be Jonah but with a different fate
Wishing for a different fate than the biblical figure Jonah.
But then I realized running would do me no good
Realizing that running away is not a solution.
That’s a quick fix, not doing what I should
Rejecting quick fixes and acknowledging the need to do the right thing.
I’ve been hurt a lot but I am not an angel
Acknowledging past hurts without claiming angelic innocence.
I turned the trauma into ammo, and it could be fatal
Transforming past trauma into a potential weapon.
If I pointed it to myself and it ended it right now
Contemplating self-harm but recognizing the contradiction.
But wait, how could I rise up if I put myself underground
Highlighting the impossibility of rising if one puts oneself underground.
What if I took it and I traded it for new life
Considering trading pain for a new life through faith.
Jesus told me son it is finished, I paid the price, yeah
Referencing a biblical message of completion and redemption.
So I’m gonna do it, give Him a chance
Committing to giving faith a chance.
Got a feeling, I’ll do my dance
Expressing anticipation of joy and celebration.
When it’s all said and done down in His story
Reflecting on personal experiences within the broader context of a divine narrative.
Dancing in His glory, glory, glory, yeah
Describing the act of dancing in the glory of a higher power.
Dancing in His glory, glory, glory, yeah
-I get excited when I see sinners come and worship
Excitement at witnessing sinners turning to worship.
Bring all your brokenness and He’ll fix it like a surgeon
Encouraging bringing brokenness to a higher power for healing.
I’m really thinking that our people need resurgence
Expressing belief in the need for a revival or resurgence.
Jesus really has a purpose, yeah
Acknowledging a divine purpose in Jesus.
So what do you do when the smoke clears out
Reflecting on challenges and uncertainties when the external support fades.
When the lights turn off
-And there are no more shouts
-When the glory fades
-When the glory fades
-Been a runner my whole life
Describing a lifelong pattern of evading challenges.
I got blisters on my feet
-They’re still breathing down my neck
-Lifelong game of hide and seek
-Wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder if I’ll ever see the end
Wondering about the never-ending challenges and the relationship with fame.
Wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder if the spotlight is my friend
-When I’m in it I feel free to point it right back to the sky
Feeling freedom when in the spotlight but recognizing its absence during vulnerable moments.
But it’s not there for me when I’m broken down and wanna cry
-Thank you Jesus
Expressing gratitude for the continuous presence and care of Jesus in every season.
Yeah you’ve been there
-Every season
-And you do care
-So I’m gonna do it, give Him a chance
Reiterating the commitment to giving faith a chance.
Got a feeling, I’ll do my dance
Anticipation of expressing joy and celebration through dance.
When it’s all said and done down in His story
Repetition of the theme of dancing in the glory of a higher power.
Dancing in His glory, glory, glory, yeah
-Dancing in His glory, glory, glory, yeah
-I get excited when I see sinners come and worship
Excitement at witnessing sinners turning to worship (repeated).
Bring all your brokenness and He’ll fix it like a surgeon
Encouraging bringing brokenness to a higher power for healing (repeated).
I’m really thinking that our people need resurgence
Expressing belief in the need for a revival or resurgence (repeated).
Jesus really has a purpose, yeah
Acknowledging a divine purpose in Jesus (repeated).
