I've Become Aware

Although you came to redeem me
I remain a slave by my choice
Addicted to those things that hurt
Praying for release while preparing
For my next dose or even worse
I know you came to free the slaves
But I've chains that'll never break
I have sins that drown my voice
So that I can't even apologize
I can't even say I am sorry
I can't even truly pray
I know I can't be fixed
So filled with sin
So empty within
I pray you come near me
Because I can't find you
I've become aware of my tragedy
A life meant for more than this
But I made it a comedy
And there is no way to stop it
Simply a game with no way to win
