Story behind the song

Begain as prayer for God to not let me get comfortable where I was not being or doing the things I should be.

Lyrics

Lord, it’s getting uncomfortable here 
You know I’m not where I should be - no
So I lift up my hands and I lay down this heart 
When I look and don’t like what I see - yah

Chorus:
I’ve been talking too much lately, not listening
And Lord I’ve been crying too much lately, not praisin’
Oh, I’ve been trying too hard lately, not trusting
And I need a change, yah – I need a change - oh

2nd
And I know you say that this work you’ve begun
Won’t stop, until you decide that you’re done
And now I need to believe in that truth
Cuz sometimes it seems like that’s all I can do

Yah, I’ve been takin’too much lately, not giving
And Lord I’ve been Complainin’ too much lately, not praising
Oh, I’ve Rushing too much lately, not waiting

And I need a change, oh, yah I need a change - oh

Bridge:

And there’s all these good things, that I should do, but don’t do
And then there’s those others, I don’t want to, but I do
It seems like by now, there’d be no fight – to get it all right, but there’s no good in me, without you….

So help me cuz I’ve…
Been talking too much lately, not listening
Lord, I’ve been crying too much lately, not thankin’
Oh I’ve been trying too hard lately, not trusting

And I need a change, help me to change, Lord ……oh
And Lord  I’m glad it’s getting uncomfortable here…
