[Intro]
You stir the air
You shake the flame
You think the gust
Will make you change

[Verse 1]
You chase the wind, believing strength
Can shape the course you have to run
You think your fervour, passion, will
Will make you righteous in the sun

You sprinkle hope like pepper rain
You think the taste will make you clean
But every breath you think you gain
Just keeps you bound to what has been

[Pre-Chorus]
What you clothe in white
Is still the same within
Nothing made pure
By what you think you bring

[Chorus]
You chase the wind
But it slips right through
You run so hard
But it's never you
You think you stand
But you only spin
It's just like tossing
Pepper in the wind

[Verse 2]
You cry out loud with fervent cry
You flash your zeal for all to see
You think your heat can burn the dark
You think your effort sets you free

But every spark you call your flame
Just dances wild on surface thin
You can't control the raging storm
You can't become what you are not in

[Pre-Chorus]
All the noise you raise
Is still a shadow's din
Nothing stands firm
By what you try to win

[Chorus]
You chase the wind
But it slips right through
You run so hard
But it's never you
You think you stand
But you only spin
It's just like tossing
Pepper in the wind

[Bridge]
And in the quiet
Truth remains
Not by fervour
Not by claims

Only mercy
Only grace
Drops like rain
In broken place

[Final Chorus]
You chase the wind
But now you see
Your strength is weak
Your heart is free
Not by fire
Not by spin
No more throwing
Pepper in the wind

[Outro]
You chase the wind
But now you know
His mercy falls
And makes you whole
