Locked down
Locked down
Locked down
My mind was under seige
Demons to the left
To the right
In the back and in front of me
Keeping me persuaded to believe
Living in my past was a permanent penitentiary
where I'm meant to be
No hope
No joy
No peace
Or desire for change perculating inside of me
Haunted by my sins false grins
Ways I used to pretend
Placing blame
For the thang
That brought so much shame
Reckless with a rap sheet of wrongs
Staining my own name
I was
Locked down
Locked down
Locked down
No hope
No joy
No peace
Or desire for change perculating inside of me
I once was blind but now I see
Heard the cell door slide open many of nights
But I kept trying to walk out by my own
Power and might
Constantly losing every fight I fight
Never seeing the light
Head backwards stuck in the memories of all the wrong
Wondering blindly in darkness cause it's all I've ever known
Heard a voice faintly calling my name
The more I tuned in the less I felt the pain
Then some angels appeared ministering in my ear
Visions that were dark are becoming clear
I see a light dim shinning in the distance
Afraid to move cause I always failed
Till I realized Jesus is He who opened the cell
Paid my bail reaching out His hand to pull me out of this hell
I was
Locked down
Locked down
Locked down
No hope
No joy
No peace
Or desire for change perculating inside of me
I once was blind but now I see
Now I'm free oh yes indeed
Still got the hounds of hell chasing after me
But I walk most days in His spirit not my might
Knowing now Jesus is conqueror of all my fights
Giving control surrendering that I can't do
All along Lord all I needed was You
Stumble fall backslide in grace
He lifts me up and keeps me in this race
I face fears with tears dripping in His hands
Lord I trust You now with all my plans
You hold the power to keep me free
I thank you Lord Jesus for always loving me
I was
Locked down
Locked down
Locked down
No hope
No joy
No peace
Or desire for change perculating inside of me
I once was blind but now I see
Cause I know now Jesus always loved me
