lyrics

Can someone please explain cus I don’t understand//
How we got superficial like the world is all flat again//
Tell me, do you see what I see//
I see through my own eyes, my view is free//
Still my right goes wrong, my skin tough as leather//
My soul got wings, but wet feathers//
I should have, could have, would have, done that//
Yes I know all the advice now let me be sad//
Fed up and upset, though I’m feeling sorta grateful//
I thought I had a cupful and now I have a plateful//
Of trails and tests so let me digest//
A moment of silence, and conflict I guess//
But instead of outside it happens all inside me//
My mind is a maze and a hell of a place//
Though I’m filled with grace, of what I’m gonna be//
Right now, I’m on my knees//

O Lord I’m suffering, guide my feet//
Hold my hand, I’m in need//
Ooh-hoo-hoo// //
O my Lord, make our steps firm//
Quench our thirst, our souls are yearning//
Ooh-hoo-hoo// //

The sun is shining, but the clouds are floating by//
Raindrops drop down, they’re making the town cry//
But really, why, is what we all ask right//
The only chance to know is to go high like a kite//
And get above the surface, see the clouds from below//
Be a plane in its flight or be detach fully aglow//
But my cousin’s flying kites to get relieve I believe//
We ain’t all that spiritual so we watch the kites go//

O Lord I’m suffering, guide my feet//
Go, go//

When I die today, everything will be okay//
When I die tomorrow, today will be full of sorrow//
We duck and we crawl, try to reach for the stars//
You might run from trouble but there ain’t place there far//
So you gotta be content, gotta be at peace//
Gotta be accepting to get on your knees//
As long as you get up and face the road ahead//
Stop running away, get freedom instead//

O Lord I’m suffering, guide my feet//
Hold my hand, I’m in need//
Ooh-hoo-hoo// //
O my Lord, make our steps firm//
Quench our thirst, our souls are yearning//
Ooh-hoo-hoo// //

Why does this child cry people tell me why//
He got no place to reside, when we turning the tide//
