[Verse 1]
I’ve been building my own kingdom, laying every stone
But deep inside, I know I’ve strayed too far from Your throne
I’ve felt the sting of pride when I’m hurt or when I fall
I’ve carried all the pain instead of giving You my all

[Pre-Chorus]
But You’ve called me higher, You’ve given me a name
Yet pride has been a shadow, keeping me in chains
I’ve tried to guard my heart, but fear’s been holding tight
I want to walk in freedom, but I’m struggling to fight

[Chorus]
Your kingdom, not mine, that’s what I desire
But I’ve been lost in building walls to lift me higher
Help me tear them down, and let Your love take reign
I’ll turn the other cheek and let You heal my pain
Your kingdom, not mine, I’ll lay my pride aside
Teach me how to live in You, to be humble and abide

[Verse 2]
I’m afraid of more trauma, I’ve felt it too long
I’ve taken up my cross, but the road still feels wrong
I’m wrestling with the weight of all You’ve called me to
But I know my fear builds walls that block Your view

[Pre-Chorus]
You’ve called me higher, to let my pride release
To follow in Your footsteps, to walk in perfect peace
So take my heart of stone and make it flesh again
Help me surrender, Lord, I want to trust Your plan

[Bridge]
I know that every hurt can shape me for Your will
I’ll trust You in the fire, I’ll stand and be still
You’re greater than my kingdom, You’re greater than my fear
So take my pride, take my pain, draw me near

[Outro]
Your kingdom, not mine, I’ll surrender and obey
For in Your hands, my fear will fade away.
