I'm climbing Up

Verse 1:

You came in to our lives with a promise and a smile
You had your charmin’ ways and an easy goin’ style
When eyes weren’t looking your cruel-hands they would take
Shaking, hitting, breaking, claiming lives in your toxic lake, oh but

Chorus:

I’m climbin’ up, I’m climbin’ out
I’m soaring in the Truth of what my life is truly all about
I’m standin’ firm but, I’m movin’ on
I’m walkin’ in the light, leave chains and darkness far behind

Verse 2:

Your tongue was poison and ripped right through the soul
And your self-loathing crushed spirits-left no one whole
So many victims in your deadly wake
Your lies don’t own me now and all of them I shake off me

Chorus

Bridge:

Who robbed your life, who stole your dreams
Who crushed your spirit and made you yard dog mean
I’ve let forgiveness have its work in me
Oh—you can be free too, but for now I’m free of you—

Soarin’ in the Truth
I’m free n’ new
Oh— soarin’ in the Truth
Oh, hey, oh I’m climbin’ up!
