Story Behind The Song
I composed a version of this song just about the time that I started to struggle with serious addiction it was just geared at making money a real raunchy rude sex driven rocker, you wouldn't even recognise it cause the lyrics were different, when I got saved I worked on a completely different theme and a different message, using the lyrics to reflect the changes in my heart and in my life. For instance "I wanna see I wanna feel I wanna live I wanna have fun" In addiction I wasn't seeing clearly, I was numb, I wasn't really living (not in the true sense) and I surely wasn't having fun.
Song Description
What can I say, the song talks of where I was, and where I wanted to be, and who got me there, Jesus!

Lyrics
I wanna see I wanna feel I wanna live I wanna have fun,I wanna breathe I wanna smell I wanna taste I wanna turn you round to my god,well I don't know what you're thinking but i'm sure you'll come around,I wanna fly don't wanna get left I wanna know I wanna try,don't wanna go crazy cast off the monkey wanna truth and not a lie, let the light in Jesus christ in let the word open our eyes,in christ direction imperfection dwindles helplessly and dies,I wanna shine I wanna get set I wanna go don't wanna get burned I wanna give I wanna climb I wanna Smile I wanna help you I wanna learn I wanna try,well I don't know what you're thinking but i'm sure you'll come around,let the light in Jesus christ in let the savior be your guide and beg to differ if they use you and abuse you it's alright,I wanna life forget about death I wanna wife I wanna have sons I wanna sing I wanna praise l wanna light i wanna seek truth I wanna love I wanna life,let the light in Jesus christ in let the word open our eyes in christ direction imperfection dwindles helplessly and dies.
