Matthew West - Not Today Lyrics

Yesterday you came knocking at my door
Selling me lies like every other time before
Can’t believe I let you in
Falling for your tricks again

Yesterday your grip had paralyzed
One foot in the grave, winner of a losing fight
You called me by my shame
Now I know that’s not my name

I listened to you yesterday
Now I need you to hear me say

Not today
The father or lies will not have his way
Yesterday guilt had me digging my own grave
Sin had the final say
But not today

The question is not will I ever get knocked down
But am I gonna let your games keep me on the ground

If you think gonna just give in
If you think I’m gonna let you win

I’ve been bought by a price
All my sins washed away
If you come at me again
You’ll hear defender say
