Not Good Enough
Flame Lyrics

How good is good enough, huh?
Am I meeting your standards of perfection?

Do I work hard enough, huh?
Am I putting in enough effort?

Do You see my sacrifices?
Are you aware of the things I have given up?

Are You satisfied where my life is?
Do you approve of the current state of my life?

Yeah, I wonder does it count every Time I do some wrong?
Do my mistakes and sins affect our relationship?

Does it empty my account?
Does it deplete the value of my actions?

See, Lord, I'm trying hard to be so perfect
I'm making a sincere effort to be flawless

But the One that I keep hurting Is the One that lifts my burdens
Ironically, I continuously hurt the very one who supports me

How you think that make me feel?
It deeply affects my emotions

I'm so conscious of this guilt
I am acutely aware of my feelings of guilt

Like I'm trapped inside a trip
It feels as though I'm stuck in a confusing situation

It's like I wanna walk away But ain't no better place to go
I feel the desire to leave, but there is no alternative that offers more fulfillment

So I know I gotta stay But I feel unworthy though
I understand the need to remain, but I still feel inadequate

When You look down on me, huh?
How do you perceive me?

Do You smile on me, huh?
Do you show approval and happiness towards me?

Are You proud of me, huh?
Do you feel a sense of pride for my actions?

Or will You take Your crown from me, huh?
Will you revoke the blessings and favor you've bestowed upon me?

When Your standards are so high
Your expectations are elevated

And You left me in this world
And you have placed me in this challenging world

Feel like I'm giving all I got But it's still a longshot
I believe I am exerting maximum effort, but success seems unlikely

See the distance from the top got Me twisted in a knot, Man
The gap between where I am and where I want to be is causing immense confusion

It's so confusing, no resolution
The situation lacks clarity and a clear solution

Feel like I'm losing
I feel as though I am failing

I know He came to this world to Make a way for people like me
I understand that he came into this world to provide salvation for individuals like me

I know He said to put faith in Him 'Cause perfect I'm never going to be
I am aware that he instructed me to have faith in him because I can never achieve perfection

That's the reason He came down
That is the purpose behind his descent to earth

I don't have to try on my own
I don't need to struggle independently

Just trust in Him with my everything
I simply need to have complete trust in him

And He'll take and make it His own
He will take my burdens and make them his own

Because You showed me Your love In the realest way
Because you demonstrated your love to me in the most genuine manner

You're so faithful even when I'm weak and fake help me, God
You remain loyal even in times when I am vulnerable and disingenuous. I seek your assistance, God

I know it's true He Removes all my condemnation
I understand that it is factual that he eliminates all my feelings of guilt and shame

And it's You who came to take my guilt away
And it is you who arrived to relieve me of my guilt

Sometimes I feel I'm not good enough for You
At times, I believe that I do not meet your standards

Sometimes I feel I'm not good enough for You
Occasionally, I sense that I am insufficient in your eyes

Sometimes I feel I'm not good enough for You
There are moments when I doubt my adequacy for you

Sometimes I feel I'm not good enough for You
Frequently, I feel like I do not measure up to your expectations

Good enough or wise enough or faithful enough Or grateful enough come on patient enough
Am I sufficient in goodness, wisdom, faith, gratitude, and patience?

Loving enough, I know, bold enough it's true
Am I adequate in love and boldness? I understand it to be true

Righteous enough, I still, gracious enough
Am I righteous and gracious enough?

Committed enough consistent enough
Am I dedicated and reliable enough?

Holy enough for you sometimes I Think I'm not good enough
Am I pure and holy enough for you? Sometimes I believe I fall short

Good enough wise enough faithful enough
Am I adequate in goodness, wisdom, and faith?

Sometimes I think I'm not Good enough good enough
There are instances when I believe I am inadequate

Holy enough for You, for You
Am I sufficiently holy for you?
