IMPERFEITO (part. Coral Canto Jovem)

There I was
Inside my house, tired of the same old scene
And then it happened
Right that time I wanted out
Everything outside was shining, calling
And so I ran

Beyond the gates, I dreamed
Of the world, I was its king
I could create something new with just my hands to write
The dreams I longed to reach, the things I wished to keep
What I touched, I claimed, I owned, I gave in to illusion
But I know that I

That I lost my way
Trying to find myself
It was so deep, the deepest well could never hold You there
Then I could see
I gained nothing (I know)
The ones I loved, I lost, I freed, I left behind

But if I try (if I try)
If I return (if I return)
Is there still a place for me?
Can I find my path again?

Beyond the gates, I saw, the wrong I had done
All I had won was slipping slowly through my hands
The walls I built to hide, I thought theyd keep me safe inside
I searched for freedom, but found danger, now I'm left alone
Now I'm left alone

Ill return to my home, that's the only way
Ill walk, Ill run toward You today
I'm tired of this pride-fed, self-led odyssey
In a moment, I see the Father drawing near
I don't know if there's forgiveness left, but I must try
I fall before His feet and start to cry

Don't know how to speak at all
Don't know if Youll take me back
Father, I bow down, make me Your servant, let me come home

That's when He reached for me
Running, He embraced me
I was no longer the same, yet His love never changed
He said I was forgiven
Hed waited all this time
He became my shelter and told everyone around
My sons come home
My sons come home

I don't know how far or lost you are, but I know
Hes waiting there for you
And even if your strength runs out, though you feel far away
The Father of love will find you
A new life begins at last
