[00:00.39]Life goes on
[00:04.94]But it own't be long
[00:09.72]'til you and me
[00:14.42]find new sights to see
[00:19.23]Mr. Sandman, give me a dream
[00:21.59]of my life in harmony, living out peace
[00:23.89]but I know in reality, guided by my faculties,
[00:26.41]there is but tragedy of apathy inside of me...
[00:28.72]There's a battle within while I'm livin'
[00:31.20]to reconcile my passion and purpose with what I'm given
[00:33.46]'cause I'm compelled to follow the man Christ,
[00:35.86]but why does life seem so much better in short sight?
[00:38.20]If only they knew who the real "me" was...
[00:41.22]walkin' a thin line of hypocrisy and love
[00:43.07]I'm being ambiguous, so I'll say it out straight,
[00:45.31]"LORD, I want to live out the things that You say!"
[00:47.75]For You paid in blood for the things I deserved
[00:49.03]and from what I've seen, You're pretty true to Your WORD, so...
[00:51.24]I want to set a standard of light shinin'
[00:54.81]'cause life goes on in HIS good timin'
[00:57.76]Ockie with another one.
[00:59.08]awkward when the walk is not a one-on-one
[01:00.74]how can I be positive He's gonna come
[01:02.54]sloppy when I'm living straight,
[01:03.78]stop me when I'm sinning, wait, kidding
[01:04.96]ain't feeling like I'll ever change so what's the point?
[01:06.19]a true believer. but when he slips then who believes him?
[01:09.80]and under pressure you can see a person's true allegiance
[01:12.12]the cost of spitting how I really feel
[01:14.53]i can say that my fear that I'll offend you's my achilles' heel
[01:15.82]my feet are planted on the rock like my first name
[01:17.03]still i sway back and forth during hurricanes
[01:21.48]the fight is hard cuz life is hard and doubt raises
[01:23.85]but to say you lost your foundation's outrageous
[01:26.56]how great He is, that He enters in our radius
[01:28.90]it's a blessing and it's something that we'd hate to miss
[01:31.20]love unconditional, until the day we fade to dust
[01:33.34]a lot of you still to hate to trust. but we got to pray because..
[01:54.76]When I'm caught in the middle of wiggling over to the tree
[01:57.31]I often twiddle and fiddle the blame away from me.
[01:59.15]Tryna keep the reprimanding to a minimum,
[02:01.80]pushing it to the side like it's a complicated riddle, yo.
[02:04.21]I skirt the issue, cover myself with garments
[02:06.29]of fig leaves; upon it, man, I simply put some garnish on
[02:09.09]cause I hear the voices calling me a varmint,
[02:11.12]and the only way to rid 'em is to try to clean the tarnish off.
[02:13.64]Then I recalled that I had better attire.
[02:15.79]A marvelous robe drooping on a metal wire
[02:18.48]given to me; only fit for the King,
[02:20.26]made and tailored for my mold, but chose to sling it aside.
[02:23.29]I'm tryna live-up my life; the flesh eating me alive though
[02:25.23]pride and humility never see eye-to-eye, bro
[02:27.97]Want to live-out what you intended -- to be a sign post
[02:30.49]to Christ who's given power to my soul without a nine-volt!
[02:33.27]When I write a sixteen I mix my dreams with a beat
[02:34.82]that's a portion of reality and a passion to me
[02:37.08]But once the competition sets and I'm feeling another threat
[02:39.42]I have a tendency to vent through expressions like I'm the best
[02:41.90]But what's the point of having pride rule the best of me?
[02:44.57]What's the point of a self-destructive destiny?
[02:46.88]Especially when I was crafted with a mission
[02:48.53]To be focused on the lost now I'm tossing and turning because I'm sleeping?
[02:49.57]And the numbers can be really quite deceiving
[02:52.05]Diving in the deep-end of a million plus views
[02:53.90]Take another cruise into the reason of existence
[02:57.75]You can take all of my music just move me by your presence
[03:00.77]I don't care about 'the best' that's just pride talking
[03:03.92]What I care about is you God in my mind often
[03:06.09]If that's a bass drum with a touch of the keys
[03:08.10]Then I will drive until the E blinks and ride to the beat
[03:10.78]Life goes on
[03:15.22]But it own't be long
[03:19.94]'til you and me
[03:24.72]find new sights to see
[03:29.76]Life goes on
[03:34.37]But it own't be long
[03:38.39]'til you and me
[03:43.10]find new sights to see
[03:48.91]Life goes on
[03:53.18]But it own't be long
[03:57.87]'til you and me
[04:02.72]find new sights to see
