Raisin' a Boy Songtext
von Strahan

I realize we ain′t livin' in the freedom
Buyin′ the lie: "we need more blood to pay it off"
I'm walking on this troubled shore
Finding the line between your pardon and my hands
I want my resurrection, please
So I'm letting go of all that I′ve seen
Don′t give me milk, God, I want meat
'Cause I′ve been raisin' a boy
Yes I′ve been raisin' a boy
But I ain′t him anymore
Pile 'em high, I need fuel to fan the season
Corner the lie, this ignorance I can't afford
I want my grace-empowered peace


So I′m letting go of all that I need
So give me more, God, I want Thee
′Cause I've been raisin′ a boy
Yes I've been raisin′ a boy
Well I got mo excuse, I ain't just a man
I′m a Spirit son, I've got heart and hands
I've been raisin′ a boy
But I ain′t him anymore
No I ain't him anymore
′Cause I've been raisin′ a boy
Yes I've been raisin′ a boy
Yes I've been raisin' a boy
Now I ain′t raisin′ a boy
