Changing
Chris August's song "Changing" is a heartfelt reflection on personal transformation and the struggle to break free from past mistakes. The lyrics express weariness and a desire for change, acknowledging the difficulty of starting over while holding onto hope. The song captures a journey of returning to faith, admitting fault, and recognizing God's steadfast presence through it all. It speaks to the universal experience of wanting to become a better person and the courage it takes to begin again, with a sense of redemption and renewed commitment.
Maybe it's a mind thing
Maybe I'm a lost cause
Either way I'm tired
Gotta gather up a life lost
I tell myself I'm okay
To keep myself from crying
But how am I to make a change
If I'm never trying?
If my world would never be the same
Maybe one of these days I'll change
Make a start forever in the pain
Maybe one of these days I'll change
If my world would never be the same
Maybe one of these days I'll change
Make a start forever in the pain
Maybe one of these days I'll change
Swimmin' in an ocean
Trying just to find out
I'm hatin' what I'm knownin'
And knowin' what I'm all about
If only I could change this
If only this could change me
Then I will be a new man
Back to when I believed
If my world would never be the same
Maybe one of these days I'll change
Make a start forever in the pain
Maybe one of these days I'll change
If my world would never be the same
Maybe one of these days I'll change
Make a start forever in the pain
Maybe one of these days I'll change
I walked away
But I'm crawling back
I'm coming full circle
It took some time
So many years
But I'm coming full circle
I wanna be free
But talk is cheap
So I'm coming full circle
The blame is me
And now I see
That I ran
I pushed away
But you, you stuck right by my side
I'm changing
If my world would never be the same
Maybe one of these days I'll change
Make a start forever in the pain
Maybe one of these days I'll change
