[00:01.43]I could play the background
[00:05.00]I could play the background
[00:08.33]Cause I know sometimes
[00:10.20]I get in the way
[00:12.66]So won't You take the lead, lead, lead, lead, lead
[00:16.22]So won't You take the lead, lead, lead, lead, lead
[00:19.61]And I can play the background, the background
[00:23.60]And You can take the lead
[00:26.26]
[00:27.23]It's evident You run the show, so let me back down
[00:31.00]You take the leading role
[00:32.55]And I'll play the background
[00:34.44]I know I miss my cues, know I forget my lines
[00:37.93]I'm sticking to Your script
[00:39.40]And I'm reading all Your signs
[00:41.32]I don't need my name in lights
[00:42.97]I don't need a starring role
[00:44.71]And why gain the whole wide world
[00:46.33]If I'm just gon'loose my soul
[00:48.15]And my ways ain't purified
[00:49.82]I'll live according to Your Word
[00:51.52]I can't endure this life without Your wisdom being heard
[00:55.16]So word to every dancer for a pop star
[00:58.48]Cause we all play the background, but mine's a Rock Star
[01:01.90]Yeah. So if you need me I'll be stage right
[01:05.35]Prayin'the whole world will start embracing stage fright
[01:08.75]So let me fall back and stop giving my suggestions
[01:12.11]Cause when I follow my obsessions
[01:14.00]I end up confessing
[01:15.55]That I'm not that impressive
[01:17.20]Matter of fact I'm who I are
[01:18.95]A trail of star dust leading to the Superstar
[01:23.70]I could play the background
[01:27.22]I could play the background
[01:30.40]Cause I know sometimes
[01:32.44]I get in the way
[01:34.70]So won't You take the lead, lead, lead, lead, lead
[01:38.11]So won't You take the lead, lead, lead, lead, lead
[01:41.66]And I can play the background, the background
[01:45.00]And You can take the lead
[01:49.88]I had a dream that I was captain of my soul
[01:52.66]I was master of my fate, lost control, and then I sank
[01:55.88]So I don't want to take the lead
[01:57.75]Cause I'm prone to make mistakes
[01:59.34]All these folks that follow me gon'end up in the wrong place
[02:02.77]So, just let me shadow You
[02:04.99]And just let me trace Your lines
[02:06.80]Matter of fact just take my pen
[02:08.65]Here, You create my rhymes
[02:10.41]Cause if I do this by myself
[02:12.05]I'm scared that I'll succeed
[02:13.60]And no longer trust in You
[02:15.40]Cause I only trust in me
[02:17.10]And see, that's how you end up headed to destruction
[02:20.60]Paving a road to nowhere
[02:22.20]Pour Your life out for nothing
[02:24.10]You pulled my card, I'm bluffing
[02:25.77]You know what's in my hand
[02:27.57]Me, I just roll to trust You
[02:29.25]You cause the dice to land
[02:31.00]I'm in control of nothing
[02:32.60]Follow You at any cost
[02:34.41]Some call it sovereign will
[02:36.00]All I know is You the boss
[02:37.70]And man I'm so at ease
[02:39.80]I'm so content
[02:41.30]I play the background like it's an instrument
[02:46.13]I could play the background
[02:49.54]I could play the background
[02:52.60]Cause I know sometimes
[02:54.70]I get in the way
[02:57.05]So won't You take the lead, lead, lead, lead, lead
[03:00.50]So won't You take the lead, lead, lead, lead, lead
[03:04.05]And I can play the background, the background
[03:07.20]And You can take the lead
[03:11.90]I know I'm safest when I'm in Your will and trust Your word
[03:15.40]And I know I'm dangerous when I trust myself, my vision blurred
[03:19.70]And I ain't got no time to play life's foolish games
[03:22.25]Got plenty aims, but do they really glorify Your name?
[03:25.60]And it's a shame the way I want to do these things for You, yet
[03:29.15]Don't even cling to You, take time to sit and glean from You
[03:32.88]It seems that You were patient in my ignorance
[03:36.00]If ignorance is bliss, its cause she never heard of this
[03:41.05]I could play the background
[03:44.44]I could play the background
[03:47.55]Cause I know sometimes
[03:49.50]I get in the way
[03:51.88]So won't You take the lead, lead, lead, lead, lead
[03:55.25]So won't You take the lead, lead, lead, lead, lead
[03:58.85]And I can play the background, the background
[04:02.30]And You can take the lead
[04:08.30]I could play the background
[04:11.80]I could play the background
[04:14.95]Cause I know sometimes
[04:17.11]I get in the way
[04:19.33]So won't You take the lead, lead, lead, lead, lead
[04:22.77]So won't You take the lead, lead, lead, lead, lead
[04:26.15]And I can play the background, the background.
[04:29.80]And You can take the lead
