Listen while I paint` you a picture
Of how it might be.
You're running through a field of new grass`
In your bare feet.
The choice is yours: you can stay where you are.
You already have a life that runs you....
It takes from you everything it wants to.
And if your thing is to keep running 'round, then
Nothing's there for me.
I may as well say this thing is history.
Watch me while I tell you a story
Of how it is now.
You're standing in a cage made of steel,`
Not knowing how.
The choice is yours: you can be who you aren't.
You already have someone to steal your goals...
Someone who'll do his best to control you.
And if your place is to be manipulated,
Then there's no place for me.
I'll just as soon get out of the country.
Watch me while I read` you the story
Of your history.
You're running on an endless racetrack,`
Mistakes to repeat.
The choice is yours: you can be what you were.
What lies behind is what is before you....
It tells you the lies that obscure more truth.
So if you want to listen to them, then
Don't listen to me.
I ask you, though, to hear one more thing from me.
"Joann, godly friendships can set you free."
