Dreamt that I was in a winter marathon
on an icy street with bare legs and bare feet
making my way to the finish line at a steady pace
Running through a snow-covered neighborhood
in the winter air but I'm breathing good
Only thing that threatens to stop me is my inner disgrace
Could I throw off every weight
All the sin and insecurities that drag me down
from the Spirit never separate
With nothing to hold me back, I'm runnin'
Let my life be lived for the betterment
of my family and the ones I meet
Leaving behind the old ways of living' to serve like the Son
I'm not looking for fame or for fortune
just a simple life lived for the Kingdom
Doing the works that He gave me to do till the victory has come
Could I drown out every other voice
in my head that tells me I'm not good enough
Though the road is hard, I've made a choice
With nothing to hold me back, I'm runnin'
Could I throw off every weight
all the sin and insecurities that drag me down
Though the road is hard, I've made a choice
With nothing to hold me back, I'm runnin'
Riding the line between indie pop and psychedelic folk, the songs on the latest from The Madeleines are as gorgeous as they are mysterious. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 22, 2022
