|
I started to feel while |
|
I was walking down the street |
|
Yes I did, and |
|
I started thinking about my destiny |
|
And how maybe, maybe just someday |
|
I could repay |
|
All the times you sang |
|
All of your warm colors have painted all my days |
|
And all of the tragic tears you took off of my face ' |
|
Cause I've fallen off of these train tracks |
|
And nearly seen my death |
|
And I stand here with a song that's left |
|
This will be my destiny |
|
You will be my song, and |
|
I will sing |
|
So don't cover up your ears at me |
|
And what I have to tell |
|
I hope that these words, they find you well |
|
I know, I know |
|
When I see it |
|
I will know |
|
It's home that |
|
I'll go, When it's my turn to clock out |
|
It's almost like dreaming, |
|
But so real |
|
I can't explain |
|
That it's almost hard to think or say |
|
To try to be a different way |
|
This will be my destiny |
|
You will be my song and |
|
I will sing |
|
So don't cover up your ears at me |
|
And what I have to tell |
|
So you, do you know what it is you do? |
|
I assume that you're thinking, "Why, yes, I do." |
|
Well I just hope, and pray that you change that soon, |
|
And I would hope and pray if |
|
I were you. |
|
If I were you, |
|
If I were you |
|
If I were you, |
|
If I were you |
|
I'd be asking every single person |
|
I knew To just please say a prayer for me ' |
|
Cause I will most assuredly die this century |
|
And in this opportune-filled life that |
|
I will leave |
|
I hope to |
|
God that I lived for you and not for me |
|
Can you hear me? |
|
Can you hear me now? |
|
Is this thing on? |
|
Can you hear me? ' |
|
Cause I am speaking loud and clear! |
