Slowly

I've had a hundred "I quit drinking" yesterdays
And I'm starting to lose track of all the ways
That I've let the people I love down
Sinkin' deep in my hometown, I'm drownin'
I woke up today with bloodshot eyes
Went to bed the same way, no surprise
I smashed a couple Gatorades
Head feels like a hand grenade, it's poundin'

But I'm slowly growing up, slowly slowing down
I'm slowly shakin' off the thoughts that trail me like a hound
Yes, I'm slowly inching toward the day my soul is glory bound
Yeah, I'm slowly but surely coming around

And I know how to walk a crooked line
Straight and narrow gets me every time
Like a Camel through the needle's eye
Damn, this sinful heart of mine confounded
No, I don't deserve forgiveness
Or the grace she sheds on me
And as God is my witness
I swear I'm gonna make her see

That I'm slowly growing up, slowly slowing down
I'm slowly shakin' off the thoughts that trail me like a hound
And I'm slowly inching toward the day my soul is glory bound
Yeah, I'm slowly but surely coming around

And I'm slowly growing up, slowly slowing down
I'm slowly shakin' off the thoughts that trail me like a hound
Yes, I'm slowly inching toward the day my soul is glory bound
Yeah, I'm slowly but surely coming around

Yes, I'm slowly but surely coming around
Oh, oh
