I took some time to find, that the grass isn't greener
Spun my wheels, wasted years and years
Considering myself a good person
And sweeping my filth under the rug

You are free to make the choice
Listen to the Savior
'Cause the world will leave you empty and
Bitter and sad

Since the years have gone, and I've grown in faith
Given new eyes--new ears, smell where I've come from
Given perspective to see, how dead I was

You are free to make the choice
Listen to the Savior
'Cause the world will leave you empty and
Bitter and sad

You are free to make the choice
Listen to the Savior
'Cause the world will leave you empty and
Bitter and sad

You are free to make the choice
Listen to the Savior
'Cause the world will only bring you down
Down, down, down

Being indwelt now by the spirit, I can't help but encourage you
And hate your sin, are you being drawn in'
Are you being drawn in'
Are you driven by self- interest'
Or meekness and obedience'

You are free to make the choice
Listen to the Savior
'Cause the world will leave you empty and
Bitter and sad
