On The Inside

From the outside looking in you might not've seen it
But my heart was doing hard time
Pleading, Jesus
I was screaming through the shadows of my secrets
My last broken prayer
Right then, right there

I found freedom on the inside
Love released me from a past life
Said I'm wanted for a different reason
Blood stained dirt upon a hillside
That's what a ransom paid looks like
And there's no one else to blame but Jesus
For this freedom on the inside
I found freedom
I found freedom on the inside

It's not prison bars that I see any longer
It's the nails made of the same stuff only stronger
And the chaos that confined me lead to love that undermined my fears
Right now, right here

I found freedom on the inside
Love released me from a past life
Said I'm wanted for a different reason
Blood stained dirt upon a hillside
That's what a ransom paid looks like
And there's no one else to blame but Jesus
For this freedom on the inside
I found freedom
I found freedom on the inside

Now I could but I don't want to run
Just look at what you have done
Screaming through the shadows of my secrets
My last broken prayer
Right here

I found freedom on the inside
Love released me from a past life
Said I'm wanted for a different reason
Blood stained dirt upon a hillside
That's what a ransom paid looks like
And there's no one else to blame but Jesus
For this freedom on the inside
I found freedom
I found freedom on the inside
