Progress Isn’t a Straight Line Lyrics by Luke Knodel
Progress Isn’t a Straight Line
2022
[Verse 1] October twenty third that was the day I was born Way out in Indiana we surrounded by corn My parents love the Lord, and they really love me Growing up on Disney Pixar Cars Lightning McQueen I was loving playing sports and watching Star Wars Lion King Reliably my anger fiery spouting out impropriety During my early years I was a troublesome kid I was mean and obscene seeing all that I did I saw my deeds and I wanted to be completely different My parents pointed me to the being omnipotent I’m thinking it is the way to go but I was still so Young and didn’t make it my own yet I forget I just wanted to play with the neighbors I can’t wait to stay outside until it gets later Dad says it’s time to come inside man I miss Trader Joe’s visits push a mini basket when I didn’t chase paper [Chorus] Walking the straight and narrow path Trust in his grace my faith gone last I just wanna see your face Help me to complete the race Walking the straight and narrow path Trust in his grace my faith gone last I just wanna see your face Help me to complete the race [Verse 2] In middle school I turned around, call it a one-eighty Pursuing faith amazing grace always cause Christ saved me And day to day I pray obey and then I start changing Don’t waste away Dwayne and Crae I hear their rap playing Inside the car my dad he had a few CD’s And now my head it started nodding and honest I was intrigued By Rebel, Rehab, The Overdose, and Gravity I casually just started writing but it wasn’t to beats Even though I knew the Lord, still would search for worth in sports Was emersed in church before hurting cursing on the course Shank it, dang it, yelling fore I couldn’t take it anymore Aimless plain it was a chore next heard Nathan Paramore Said I was doing pretty good, but I was unhappy Tenth grade got pretty tough, it was a deep valley Wasn’t perfect, got discouraged but still you had me You’ll never leave yeah I believe I’m in a true family [Chorus] Walking the straight and narrow path Trust in his grace my faith gone last I just wanna see your face Help me to complete the race Walking the straight and narrow path Trust in his grace my faith gone last I just wanna see your face Help me to complete the race [Bridge] Look I know that I’m where I should be, not losing sleep Over mistakes I’m hoping not to repeat, yeah I believe My worth’s not measured by the things I achieve and honestly If this don’t reach you it still impacted me positively I thank the Lord and know I’m bowing a knee and crowning him king Over my life and over everything My eyes are on the prize, now I’m staying on the grind Yeah I know it’s taking time, progress isn’t a straight line [Chorus] Walking the straight and narrow path Trust in his grace my faith gone last I just wanna see your face Help me to complete the race Walking the straight and narrow path Trust in his grace my faith gone last I just wanna see your face Help me to complete the race [Outro] Let us also lay aside every weight And sin which clings so closely And let us run with endurance the race that is set before us Looking to Jesus
