Lyrics
As an adolescent I was very rebellious
Always doing stupid stuff
That were foolish and reckless
See I would
Drink and drive in my car all the time
And I would
Get so high till I was out of my mind
But I was blind
And couldn't see through the dark
Didn't know I had a void
Deep down in my heart
So I kept on living wrong 'til one night
I knew that there was something wrong
I told my mom about it
Then we went straight to the doctor
They ran some tests
And then this is what they said
You have testicular cancer
And it has really spread
All the way up to your liver and lung
And that was when my battle
For my life had truly begun
Although I didn't know it then
But God was gonna use it as a wake up call
Kinda like what God did way back in the day
To thee apostle Paul
I was a wretch, so filthy and disgusting
And I confess, that I deserve this suffering
I was lost and confused
Did not know what I should do
On the day they gave the news
Unsure of what I would go through
Did not know the outcome
Deep inside I felt numb
Do I hide, do I run?
To death will I succumb?
But I pray
I want to be set free from this cancer
Im praying out to You Lord for an answer
Don't leave me here to die from this cancer
Dear God I know You are the answer
I was 17 years old
When the doc gave me the news
At that very moment I was so confused
Doc said, you will need to have some surgeries
And we need to do it fast cuz right now it's an emergency
So we booked it up in Kansas City
The surgeon showed me where he'd cut me open
It wouldn't be pretty
The pain I had after the procedure was immense
The worse that I had ever felt
The kind that made you wish
That it would all just end
Please just make this go away
Morphine doesn't help the pain
And I haven't slept for days
But I overcame
But then came the chemotherapy
It just made me sick
But it was the only remedy
Fast forward about 3 months or so
The chemo gave the cancer
One last final blow
Only by Gods grace
That I made it to the end
If it weren't for You
I would've died in my sin
Thank You Lord
I was lost and confused
Did not know what I should do
On the day they gave the news
Unsure of what I would go through
Did not know the outcome
Deep inside I felt numb
Do I hide, do I run?
To death will I succumb?
But I pray!
I want to be set free from this cancer
Im praying out to You Lord for an answer
Don't leave me here to die from this cancer
Dear God I know You are the answer
I want to be set free from this cancer
I'm praying out to You Lord for an answer
Don't leave me here to die from this cancer
Dear God I know You are the answer
