Rag Men Obstacles Lyrics

I'm tired of running away from obstacles in my way
Breaking me, making me fall, am i weak have i lost control?
Making my goals seem so distant, making destiny out to be a dream
I feel like i'm losing this battle, becoming a slave of my own sorrow
Oh lord help me
It's not easy being
Lord give me a new life, new reason for living
As i crawl on my hands and my knees, isn't this so pathetic of me?
So many think my life is sweet, but it's been sour grapes to me
I wish others could walk in my shoes, and realize what i've been through
Next time you see a smile on my face Look deep in my eyes and witness my pain
Oh lord help me
It's not easy being
Lord give me a new life, new reason for living
As i walk with my head down in shame to realize
And cannot continue this way
Must be bold, must be strong and be true
Cause this world is nothing but straight up cruel
So i look at myself and i say
I won't slip through cracks and i won't decay
My faith has got to change, open my soul before all fades away
Oh lord help me
It's not easy being
Lord give me a new life, new reason for living
