Outside The City (7.6.19)

[Verse 1]
I don't wanna keep keeping on, keeping on
I don't wanna keep silent every song
It's about time for a change
I get the feeling in my mind, in my mind
I get the feeling in my heart
And I was made, I was made for an open sky
Ridin' free through the fields under natural light
I've been boxed up too long
Now it's to my left and my right
All this beauty was all along

[Chorus]
I've been gone too long, too long
I broke away, now I'm back by the grace of God
There's a place outside of the city
Where you'll find me singing my son-ong

[Verse 2]
Isn't it a shame, all the violence in our veins?
Isn't it a vicious kingdom we have made?
Maybe if wе'd all just take a break
Maybe if wе all would just breathe
It would all be okay
And I know it's easy to think that you got it all figured out
And I know it's different when you're watchin' from the couch
But as I'm drivin', I'm wrestling these thoughts in my mind
And maybe if we all took a break
It would remind us, remind us

[Bridge]
There is life to be found all around us
Why must we divide us?
And deny the ones unlike us?
It's beautiful out here
I've never seen so clear

[Chorus]
I've been gone too long, too long
I broke away, now I'm back by the grace of God
There's a place outside of the city
Where you'll find me singing my son-ong
I've been gone too long, too long
I broke away, now I'm back by the grace of God
There's a place outside of the city
Where you'll find me singing my son-on-ong
