Lyrics
Drifting away, drifting away
Away, Aye!
Left or right say me nuh know which way fi choose
Cause I’ve been living for the world and now my spirit in a snooze
Fighting everyday to be a better man
But my strength is not enough me haffi call on the One
And I’ve been fooled
By the school that have told me it’s me myself and I
Leaving no room, for the true King of glory the one who reigns on High
Now I stopped reading your words
Not a passage or a scripture or a verse
Was wise in my own eyes, I couldn’t see that I was blind
Now everyday me have another vision
Never ask fi strength fi dissa mission
Feel stuck and I just can’t move,
And with all that I’m trying to prove Lord
I’m just drifting away from your love now
Drifting away, I’m just drifting away from your love now
But that’s not where I want to stay
Drifting away, Drifting away from your love now
Please take me back , that’s where I really wanna stay
Free me from the shackles and chains of the fame and fortune I’m chasing
Teach me how to run my own race, so I won’t spend my time just complaining
God a you alone, hear me when I groan
I feel it in my bones, just take this heavy load
Mercy mercy give me some mercy, Lord me portion bitter like cerasee
And it’s all because of me, Yeah
Drifting away from your love
Drifting away, Drifting away from your love
Lord
Drifting away from your love
Drifting away, Drifting away from your love
Lord
That’s not where I want to stay
Don’t leave me this way
Lord me portion bitter like cerasee
In your arms, where I want to stay
Where I want to stay, Yeah
Whoa Yeah!
Drifting away from your love now, but that’s not where I want to stay
Drifting away from your love now
Drifting, I’m drifting away
Please take me back in your arms now, cause that is where I want to stay
