I’ve turned my face to the sun
And anyone who tries
To avert my focus
Is bound to notice that I’m not so easily swayed anymore
Now I’ve got my mind in the right place
I know my eyes won’t go
Astray to the places
That I used to stay
When I thought that I just had nothing to do
This is the…
War of my life, I’m ready to fight
And I may fail, but I will not surrender
I’ve turned my face to the sun
And anyone who tries
To avert my focus
Is bound to notice
That I’m not so easily swayed anymore
Every time I run, you catch me
So what's the point in running anyway?
And every time I hide you find me
So I've given up on hiding everything
This is the…
War of my life, I’m ready to fight
And I may fail, but I will not surrender
And when my face hit the floor like it always seems to do
You stood there, waiting to lift it again
And as you stared straight into my eyes,
I felt something change
I felt your grace and warm embrace
War of my life, I’m ready to fight
And I may fail, but I will not surrender
