[Intro: Tree Giants]
I wouldn't say it's over, played to slow down, slow down
You found your place in the mystery when you said to me
I finally begun to see what I'm meant to become
When I fall, when I won't let go, when I find I'm standing in the fog, standing in the fog
[Verse 1: Marty]
Everything's fine or pretend to be
Let's get lost on an empty street
Let's go away and never come back here
I fell in love, I was not prepared
I'm not as pretty as the populars
Talked all night on the bottom stairs
We spoke about things only God would hear
Don't forget us why you're here
Escape this place that was all our prayers
Only come back on the holidays
We don't the chase girls who got away
I got a ways to go but I'm not too far away
Not too far away
That's what I told my girl, I'm gone today
When I see my family then it's all okay
Bow our heads lift your hands and pray
Thank God for another day
[Hook: Tree Giants]
Hold your head up
Living it up, aren't you gonna give it up
It's love that gave it anyway. It's hard to give it all away. So swallow the courage
Living it up, aren't you gonna give it up
It's love that gave it all away. It's love to give it anyway. So swallow the courage
[Verse 2: Fern]
In my life time, I've been out of my right mind
With nothing left no lifelines just wishful thinking in my rhymes
And my kids is soaring, how time flies
My eyesight set way past the sky because I probably been on 10,000 flights and the first 5,000 I was petrified
When you know God's real, you settle down
This song is nothing but motivation in a time where real is a dying breed
Though there ain't none, me I want unity
Everybody knows, ain't no I in team
From now on we all shine like diamond rings and we won't stop till the whole world sings this song about hope and the love God brings
I told them the plans always been unify
We all fall short is just you and God
To me this song is more than lines because I could've died like four times, but I didn't so I know there's a plan
Difference is this time took the Lord by the hands
Deviate no man, not part of the program
Now please all stand and tell them we all can
[Hook: Tree Giants]
Hold your head up
Living it up, aren't you gonna give it up
It's love that gave it anyway. It's hard to give it all away. So swallow the courage
Living it up, aren't you gonna give it up
It's love that gave it all away. It's love to give it anyway. So swallow the courage
[Bridge: Tree Giants]
I found the courage when I left love there in the stars
I'm coming back into the power alone, it's been a roller coaster
[Hook: Tree Giants]
Hold your head up
Living it up, aren't you gonna give it up
It's love that gave it anyway. It's hard to give it all away. So swallow the courage
Living it up, aren't you gonna give it up
It's love that gave it all away. It's love to give it anyway. So swallow the courage
