Sprinter

Word of life on severed tree
I picked it up and took a swing
My pastor told us, "Don't you worry
Even Zacchaeus found His glory"

I was a sprinter then
Living to see it end

Pastor lost his position
Went down for pornography
So I found myself some ground to stand
Bound to be the better man

'Cause I was a sprinter then
Living to see it end

Wound up in a holding pattern
Circled my landing in a lather
Unnerved, I laughed, I planned the snag
Then went down for a dipso jag

'Cause I was a sprinter then (I was a sprinter then)
Dying to see it end (dying to see it end)

I was a sprinter then (I was a sprinter then)
Dying to see it end (dying to see it end)

There's freedom to, and freedom from
And freedom to run from everyone
There's freedom to, and freedom from
And freedom to run from everyone
Well, what I did is what is done
The Baptist in me chose to run

But if there's still time to choose the sun
I'll choose the sun, I'll choose the sun
I'll run it back, I'll chase the sun
And I'll run it back to everyone
If there's still time, I'll choose the sun
And I'll run it back to everyone
