Honest in the Dust

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I left the coffee on the counter Keys are waiting by the door You saw the doubt behind my answer Still you asked me what it's for I don't have every piece together I lose my way, then start again But I can face the hard days better When I remember who I am [Pre-Chorus] If I bend, I won't stay broken If I fall, I'll rise up slow Every promise that I've spoken Is a road I'm learning to go [Chorus] I'm not perfect, I never said I was I only try to be The best man I can be God with me, setting me free I'm not perfect, but I'm honest in the dust With every step I take I give more than I take God with me, setting me free [Verse 2] I called my brother from the parking lot Told him things I kept inside He said, "You don't have to win it all Just don't run from what you hide" So I went home and faced the silence Put the old excuses down There is mercy in the trying There is strength in turning round [Pre-Chorus] If I bend, I won't stay broken If I fall, I'll rise up slow Every promise that I've spoken Is a road I'm learning to go [Chorus] I'm not perfect, I never said I was I only try to be The best man I can be God with me, setting me free I'm not perfect, but I'm honest in the dust With every step I take I give more than I take God with me, setting me free [Bridge] When the mirror tells me otherwise I won't let shame decide There is grace beneath the battle There is truth I cannot hide One day at a time, one choice at a time I leave the past behind [Final Chorus] I'm not perfect, I never said I was I only try to be The best man I can be God with me, setting me free I'm not perfect, but I'm honest in the dust With every step I take I give more than I take God with me, setting me free [Outro] The best man I can be God with me, setting me free
