Disciple - Besetting Sin

Soliloquy
As I slowly begin to break my life down into simplest terms
Dissecting my mind to reach the inner core
To touch the root of all insecurity

Just let it be known
I've got the will to be
Just take a look at me
Inside and you will see
To strip away the outer shell
Only to find there's nothing there

Unearthly fate spawned within me
Drowning of life
In frustration and pain
Twisted into form
The constant brow-beating
Dominated by guilt
Suffocation of life
Forced to come to grips
With this sad reality
No one without sin
Born within us
Inbred equality
Is enslaving my soul

Just let it be known
I've got the will to be
Just take a look at me
Inside and you will see
To strip away the outer shell
Only to find there's nothing there

It's maddening
The heartache when I think
Back on my past and how
It shaped my present hell
Just to realize
The way things might have been
If I had not fallen victim
To the weakness within

Face to face with the truth
The lies surround me
The fear of confronting reality
The unwillingness to believe

Just let it be known
I've got the will to be
Just take a look at me
Inside and you will see
To strip away the outer shell
Only to find there's nothing there

It's maddening
The heartache when I think
Back on my past and how
It shaped my present hell
Just to realize
The way things might have been
If I had not fallen victim
To the weakness within
