Lord, I been trying for so long
Trying to live up to these songs
All that it brought me, brought me way down low (way down)
Way down
Working for nothing at Your house
Hoping that You would be so proud
Always afraid I'd see Your grace go cold (grace go)
Your grace go cold (cold)
And I wasted time thinking
I knew what You were thinking 'bout me
But I never been so glad
To be so wrong
I don't gotta win You over
I don't gotta change Your mind
Fake a smile and dress in my Sunday best
You would see right through
I don't gotta sound impressive
Praying with the perfect lines
When the One I love says that I am loved
No matter what I do
Don't gotta prove a thing to You
(Don't gotta prove a thing to You)
No more
Acting more like a prodigal than the son
Acting more like the 99 than the one
Mercy was running to bring this runaway home
All the way home (yeah)
I wasted time thinking
I knew what You were thinking 'bout me
I never been so glad, to be so wrong
I don't gotta win You over
I don't gotta change Your mind
Fake a smile and dress in my Sunday best
You would see right through (see right through)
I don't gotta sound impressive
Praying with the perfect lines
When the One I love says that I am loved
No matter what I do
Don't gotta prove a thing to You
You searched my heart and You know it
Know where I've been, where I'm going (where I'm going)
You say I'm Yours and You've shown it
Don't gotta prove a thing
Don't gotta prove a thing (You know who I am)
You searched my heart and you know it
Know where I've been, where I'm going (where I'm going)
You say I'm Yours and You've shown it
Don't gotta prove a thing
Don't gotta prove a thing
To win You over
I don't gotta change Your mind
Fake a smile and dress in my Sunday best
You would see right through
I don't gotta sound impressive
Praying with the perfect lines
When the One I love says that I am loved
No matter what I do
Don't gotta prove a thing to You
Don't gotta prove a thing to You
Don't gotta prove a thing to You (hallelujah)
Don't gotta prove a thing to You
Don't gotta prove a thing to You
