about

This song is about all the times we tell ourselves that we will stop, come clean, and turn around soon. It's hard to realise that each day in rebellion makes it harder to unclench your fist, and self-service is an endless cycle. Only grace can break us out. Romans 8: 13-15 says:

'For if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. 14 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons[f] of God. 15 For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption as sons, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!”'

Once we turn to God, we are no longer slaves to our own selves.

lyrics

In just another second I'll turn around
In just another minute I'll stop following the crowd
In just another hour I'll hit the ground

In just another day I'll let morals in
I'll wake up really knowing like a kick in the shin
I'll wake up in the morning and start again

I'm in a trap,
I am surrounded
And I can't get out
I can't get out

Will you bail me out
Will you bail me out
I am surrounded

I do what I want, but I don't want what I do
I'll never admit it but I'm hiding from you
Clean me, can you make me new?

I'm in a trap,
I am surrounded
And I can't get out
I can't get out

Will you bail me out
Will you bail me out
I am surrounded
