Lyrics
I'm not as strong as people think I am
I acknowledge that I don't possess the strength perceived by others.
When weakness comes I just run away
In the face of weakness, I tend to escape or avoid confronting it.
My every fear and insecurity
My fears and insecurities persistently trouble me.
Keeps haunting me
These fears and insecurities continue to haunt and torment me.
And taunting me
The issues I face are not only haunting but also mocking me.
They're telling me
These challenges are conveying a message that I can't undergo positive transformation.
That I can never change
I am being told that I am incapable of changing for the better.
I know the maker of my heart
I am aware that the creator of my heart is orchestrating things for my benefit.
Is working things for good
Despite knowing that, I question why I am experiencing this emotional pain.
But why do I feel this pain
My shame is a constant companion, affecting how I live.
Living inside my shame
Even though I am saved by God's grace, shame continues to reside within me.
And if I'm saved by His amazing grace
Being adopted into His family, I struggle with understanding my own value.
Adopted now in His name
I question my worth, seeing myself as insignificant, akin to dust and dirt.
Why do I see my worth
I hide my emotional wounds and vulnerabilities from others.
As nothing more than dust and dirt
Despite my efforts to rise, I frequently find myself falling back down.
Can't let em' see my scars and open wounds
All the sorrows I've experienced invade my soul, making me feel isolated.
I'm climbing up but i keep falling down
This pain declares that I am alone, and this state is my home.
Every sorrow I have ever known
Feelings of isolation persist, making it difficult to break free.
Invades my soul
The creator of my heart is actively working for my well-being.
Says I'm alone
Yet, I question the reason for the ongoing pain and shame I experience.
This is home
Even though I'm saved by grace, my perception of worth remains low.
And they'll never let me go
I struggle to see myself as anything more than dust and dirt.
I know the maker of my heart
The concept of being insignificant, like dust and dirt, is emphasized.
Is working things for good
Despite knowing the solutions, I find myself grappling with these challenges.
But why do I feel this pain
Even with the opportunity for freedom, there's a comfort in remaining confined.
living inside my shame
The awareness of God's plan for my good contrasts with my internal struggles.
And If I'm saved by His amazing grace
I question why the feeling of safety exists within the confines of my struggles.
Adopted now, in His name
Despite the knowledge of positive change, the familiarity of pain feels secure.
Why do I see my worth
The internal conflict persists despite the divine orchestration of my life.
As nothing more than dust and dirt
Questions about worth and value continue to overshadow the truth.
Dust and dirt

I know the answers I confess

So why am i still struggling through this
Despite this understanding, they continue to grapple with ongoing challenges.
My prison door is open wide
An opportunity for freedom exists, symbolized by an open prison door.
Why does it feel so safe to say inside
Paradoxically, the speaker finds comfort in remaining within their struggles.
I know the maker of my heart
The assurance of God working for good contrasts with the struggle to break free.
Is working things for good
The pain and shame persist despite the acknowledgment of divine adoption.
But why do I feel this pain
The internal conflict raises questions about the purpose of ongoing pain.
Living inside my shame
Even with the grace of salvation, shame continues to reside within.
And If I'm saved by His amazing grace
The adoption in God's name contrasts with the struggle to recognize personal worth.
Adopted now, in His name
Despite divine adoption, the speaker grapples with a distorted self-perception.
Why do I see my worth
The recurring question of personal worth and value persists.
As nothing more than dust and dirt
The speaker's self-perception is marked by feeling like nothing more than dust
