music blurb....derek webb cover...i repent



Lyrics to I Repent :
I repent, i repent of my pursuit of america's dream
i repent, i repent of living like i deserve anything 
of my house, my fence, my kids, my wife 
in our suburb where we're safe and white 
i am wrong and of these things i repent

i repent, i repent of parading my liberty 
i repent. i repent of paying for what i get for free
and for the way i believe that i am living right 
by trading sins for others that are easier to hide 
i am wrong and of these things i repent

bridge
i repent judging by a law that even i can't keep 
of wearing righteousness like a disguise 
to see through the planks in my own eyes

i repent, i repent of trading truth for false unity 
i repent, i repent of confusing peace and idolatry 
by caring more of what they think than what i know of what we need 
by domesticating you until you look just like me
i am wrong and of these things i repent
