lyrics

Weaned by faith
But am I too, bad
Could I be the one if I had to?
I want to erase my pain in the light
And build my unrest like
Holy rows in my defense
Where am I going and what am I doing about this
Once you realize, this is a no brainer
You may bow down when you’re the singer
Hold my hand this is your land to be the man
How many weeks in the mountain did I sleep
Once you realize this is your turn
They're gonna bring you forth, they’re gonna be unlearned
Pull you in to be their sun
Be a lightning rage and a wave that awaits love
Like holiness, I want to break bread and fists,
have all my rights and my breath
And now you see where my restitution sits
Caught in the place you don't like
Pull me into your reason and that way
You won't be alone when the night fades

down, down, it's coming down
It’s coming down, down, down, it’s coming down

Pulled by weight
I alone can endure in my cell
I would make you a home if you want me to
But I would be a liar if I told you the streets
were the lines that I crossed when I rushed through the race
It’s a photographic world, they’re going to make you talk
show all your ways and your thoughts
How will I win, the howling wind, stolen sins, it breaks me down
but I could raise you up, I could have your back,
I could make you whole when your starting to lack
When your weak can hardly speak,
You’re bones in my bed
That’s when I’ll turn over the hours and give you the power
to rise, pull you up, make you light, show you where I resign
Every now and then, they’ll call you in, when the body arrests
And now you realize it for yourself
I can’t tell you where to go or what to sell
I don’t know if i’m reading your mind
But hold me close and help me erase mine

Down, down, it's coming down, down, it's coming down x3

If we build this house out of stone,
it becomes a home and a place we are safe and sound
It becomes a place we are safe, and sound X2
