John Mapes - Grand Scheme of Things

Who am I in this grand scheme of things
Just floating by, where the wind guides my wings
It'd be nice to make a difference, it'd be nice to inspire change
All I got's one voice two hands
And these six strings
And we all can't be a Martin Luther King
Making change on such a scale with one simple dream
It doesn't mean we can't do anything
We just all can't be a Martin Luther King
I feel so small in this grand scheme of things
A spec in it all, wondering what any of it means
It'd be nice to be remembered, it'd be nice to leave a mark
But it's all so overwhelming and hard to know
Where to start
And we all can't be a Mother Teresa
Devoting our lives so selflessly to anyone who needs ya
It doesn't mean we can't do anything
We just all can't be a Martin Luther King
It's hard to, to fully comprehend
The scope of, the world we're living in
I alone am just a drop, swimming on the oceans top
Together we can be
The biggest wave you've ever seen
And come, crashing down upon anything
And we all can't be a Martin Luther King
No we all can't be a Martin Luther King
Who am I in this grand scheme of things
Just floating by where the wind guides my wings
