Kovenant, Todd Sullivan - Whitewashed Tombs Lyrics

I've never been big on letting people become close to me. Why
Cause they here one minute and the next they gone like the jokes on me
They got these preconceived thoughts of what I'm supposed to be
And if I don't live up to they standards, they ain't approaching me
Wait, how you think that make me feel man
Just a blonde hair blue eyed white boy in this world trying to keep it real
I ain't out here trying to close a deal nah
Man I'm trying to show you my heart because I know how it is
When nobody is by your side and you got all of these issues
They say they down to ride but ain't none of 'em with you
Decided to run and hide when that famine come hit you
And you cant fight temptation anymore when them demons come get you
And its almost like I'm wandering with no direction to go
I need a couple of seconds to confess how bad it's messed with my soul
I'm tired of playing games, man I'm done taking control
I got to trust and believe in the one who came to make me whole

From the outside I look clean, but I'm dirty but I'm dirty
From the outside I look fine, but I'm hurting but I'm hurting
Perceive us how you want, just know that we are far from perfect
We're far from perfect
We some whitewashed tombs shawty, we some, we some

When people look at me they think I got it all together
But they don't see the sinking ship in the stormiest weather
Second guessing my decisions and intentions for the better
Just doesn't seem like my spirit and flesh will ever sever
And I'm fed up with the choices that I constantly making
Exploiting all these women because my heart is so vacant
I been trying to fight these battles but I just can't seem to shake it
And if I end up losing You then I know that I won't make it
And I want to be transparent, man I know I been redeemed
But why do I keep on living like we on opposite teams
I hit Mike up the other day, he said you know what this means
You got conviction in your spirit dog just follow the King
So I'm choosing to follow you with every step that I take
And I know You know I ain't perfect and there's about to be mistakes
For every sin committed I know there's sufficient grace
I'm a whitewashed tomb, lead me out of this cave

From the outside I look clean, but I'm dirty but I'm dirty
From the outside I look fine, but I'm hurting but I'm hurting
Perceive us how you want, just know that we are far from perfect
We're far from perfect
We some whitewashed tombs shawty, we some, we some
