Layaway
This I swear, until the day that I die.
I'll never give up, like the sparrow in the sky.
God is watching and I don't know why.
I'm way down here and HE's way up high.
Perhaps there is beauty in everything HE sees.
Whether I'm on top of a mountain or in the midst of poverty.
I'll never give up, like the sparrow in the sky.
God is watching and I don't know why.
I remember back when I had no friends,
because I hated everyone equally and made no mends.
Full of rage and hate because I had no sense.
Until I followed my heart and jumped over the fence.
Now Im on the other side, outside lookin in.
Seeing how I was, seeing what I did.
God is watching and I dont know why.
I'm way down here and He's way up high.
I've never candy-coated anything because nothing ever is.
You love to see me fall, because I seen you when I did.
I turn over new leaves because thats how I fly.
God is watching and I think I know why.
I am beautiful and I just keep trying, and in the back of my
mind, I know that HE's spying.
I'm walking now, but soon I'll be flying.
So these prices on lessons are for the wings that I'm buying.
