C4Real - THE FALL

Yeah
And I say
Dear Heavenly Father, hope it ain't too much to bother
But I got a couple questions, hope you answer when I'm calling
And just to be honest, though the beaten path behind us
How I'm 'posed to follow dreams while my dreams are being haunted?
By ghost of the past, I know it'll come to pass
But memories stick around like mowing the morning grass
Patience has grown strong, and pray that it's gon' last
The things that could go wrong, I pray that I don't crash
Tell me to hold on, I want what I can't grasp
My temple a war zone, a window of broke glass
A symbol to voice hope, a spirit to possess
I'm tempted to throw stones, the chip on my shoulders
Have grown to be a mountain, I'm born to be a fountain
The way the words flow like rivers, they pouring out me
You tell me lift the ones who ever doubted me
Remind me that I'm blessed without the allergies
Strengths needed where it's given
I bottle all the pain in a drank so the people don't see
Like, Father, who you kiddin'?
I follow your ways, but the waves waiting for me don't sleep
Then you asked me what's wrong, and I answered in song
Do my prayers get through at all?
Will you carry me through the fall?
Through the fall
Dear Heavenly Father, see I'm back again
I'm carrying this weight that's on my back again
You tell me love my neighbor and my enemy
With loyalty in question that's entangled with my inner peace
I'm looking at the future where the sinners sleep
And I know that I ain't perfect, who defending me?
Who defend the weak?
Who defend us when we get judged when the little things equate to big stuff?
Whats the point in even trying?
What's the weight to give up?
Just to think I moved mountains just to say I kicked rocks
What's the way to the glory?
What's the way through the hollow?
The way, and the truth, and the light for better tomorrow?
The pain that we against is bigger than all the sorrow
The weight of my regrets, my brain never forgets
Saying that you gave us free will
With you being all knowing, are decisions even real?
Huh?
Strengths needed where it's given
I bottle all the pain in a drank so the people don't see
Like, Father, who you kiddin'?
I follow your ways, but the waves waiting for me don't sleep
Then you asked me what's wrong, and I answered in song
Do my prayers get through at all?
Will you carry me through the fall?
Through the fall?
Back again like I never left
Why the dreams of my mind never manifest?
So you said "Don't worry bout dreams
When you're busy living life, I'm the one whose pulling strings
Giving everything that you need and more
Gave you looks just to be adored
When you speak it roars
Knew you'd like to get high, so you never run and hide
I equipped you with some wings to soar
All the while don't fly to close to the sun
Getting burned isn't fun, boy, I knew you'd take a plunge
Head first in the acid
Got the egg cracking
Instead of getting fried, mind scrambled, you was hatching
Actions, louder than words
When you living through me, you get passion
Followed with verbs
And I knew you'd ask questions, I knew you'd get reckless
So live everyday like it's precious"
Strengths needed where it's given
I bottle all the pain in a drank so the people don't see
Like, Father, who you kiddin'?
I follow your ways, but the waves waiting for me don't sleep
Then you asked me what's wrong, and I answered in song
Do my prayers get through at all?
But you carried me through the fall
I know you carried me through it all
