Life Preserver Lyrics by Luke Knodel

2019

[Verse 1]
I’m a mess, I don’t need no one’s respect
That means I need some respect, double negative, I’m a logical person, I’m subtle, delicate
Like a hospital surgeon, I like tropical excursions and topical sermons
A lot about me is not typical, gotta peek behind the curtain, inside the person
I’m talking about the mind not your blind assertions, there’s more to me, that is certain
Anyway, why so many people hurting? Why’s there so much evil lurking?
In me emerging, it’s a wee disturbing, I dream dreams and see scenes of murder
I’m in need of nurture, God complete the merger, kill the sin in me and release the burden
You’re my life preserver
[Hook]
Preserve my life, though I don’t deserve my life
Hurtin til he brought me to the surface I am certain that I will serve the light
I could’ve been murked at night, but now I yearn for right
Living I’m forgiven on condition that Christ, payed the price, and now I’m hype!
[Verse 2]
So give me a life jacket, I feel like a slight addict
I’m right back at it, in bad habits, keep floating
Or I’ll be showing up in a closed casket can elaborate flows capture
My soul’s chatter? My sister asks me to go faster
But then they don’t really pick up anything that I’m saying, they listening in vain displaying amazement
And saying I am slaying it, replaying it, surveying it, it’s odd when I’m praying but not obeying I’m straying
But God is saving his kids, there’s a lot in the sky living, they praising God amazing, not decaying
While I’m killing it, this was lit, this was sick, villainous, limited edition exhibiting when I’m spitting quick
[Hook]
Preserve my life, though I don’t deserve my life
Hurtin til he brought me to the surface I am certain that I will serve the light
I could’ve been murked at night, but now I yearn for right
Living I’m forgiven on condition that Christ, payed the price, and now I’m hype!
[Verse 3]
The Spirit inspires me, I write for society
Finding my privacy, I read scripture quietly
Fighting fiends and their dynasties, but what’s next?
The sin inside of me needs to get wrecked, I want to start living correct with no regrets
And don’t we all? Even though we slip and fall, I hear His call, right through those walls
That box me in, I’m lost again, preserve my life when I’m drowning
Help me out, I’m shouting, heart’s pounding, it starts sounding loud like Dolby surrounding
But God’s surmounting all the sin within, then He crowns me as His kid
[Hook]
Preserve my life, though I don’t deserve my life
Hurtin til he brought me to the surface I am certain that I will serve the light
I could’ve been murked at night, but now I yearn for right
Living I’m forgiven on condition that Christ, payed the price, and now I’m hype!
