How I long to be something more Someone who reeks righteousness Someone who speaks the truth Someone who isn't afraid of change Someone who doesn't worry about everything Oh, how I long to be more than what I've always been Somebody who is not a friend of sin Somebody who loves everybody no matter their differences Somebody who wants to live I long to fly free Free from the shackles holding me Free from my modus operandi Free from my current self I'm tired of who I am Tired of the anxiety that plagues me Tired of the lust that overtakes me Tired of self-isolating Oh, I long for love Not just any kind of love A love that understands A love that doesn't leave you A love that is genuine Kind And not only for a short period of time Lord Jesus shows me this love daily And I never tire of his love But I want to experience love from someone on this Earth Someone who loves me for me And I will love them for who they are I long for the new The new people The new experiences The strongholds broken Oh, I long to be something more
