The Story of You

Now through my life I have found
Fear comes in all shapes and sizes
Well a master of the fortress, a master of disguises
Say we used to run free
No fear of where we’d go
And we used to love free, not scared of being alone
These times can be returned to if we use the light
That was shown on from above
In our quest for wrong and right
We got to be, now be like the tree
Firm in your roots but expanding to see
See, yeah use both your eyes, and if they are covered then look inside
Said if they are covered, look inside yeah
I said go do you, now travel far
Share your stories and earn your scars
Its you, say you are the one you will answer to when this life is done
Don’t waste a minute, jump in the river
Wash yourself clean so you can deliver you
The story of you, the story of you
The story of you, the story of you
(Interlude)
Well I said I have lied
A portion of my days
Trying to hide, who I was and how I was made
But I found strength in struggle, pride in the trouble
My story’s still going, still sifting through rubble
These are the days we were meant to fear
But when it is open is when it is all so clear yeah
Clear like the sky, shapeless and open right after she cries
Cause the storm, has washed it away
Let the water rain down I am here to stay
Let the water rain down I am here to stay, yeah
Cause I know I, that I was made for so much more
And I know you, that you were made for so much more
I say go do you, now travel far
Share your stories and earn your scars, it’s you
Say you are the one, you will answer to when this life is done
Don’t waste a minute, jump in the river
Wash yourself clean so you can deliver you
The story of you, the story of you
The story of you, the story of you
(Interlude)
Well I used to spend my days a sittin' and wishin'
That I could get permission to change my position
Well instead of sittin' in division, I honed in on transition
Beat my self into submission and strolled into remission
Well I guess its my decision when I say I’m on a mission
For divine recognition of that god head listen
To the light that is shown right in front of you
You already know what it is you gotta do
Well I say go with the flow and don’t exert too much force
When you are in doubt you gotta stay the course
Keep your eyes forward to the light that will shine on
All of us together cause we’re headed toward Zion
Now all of us together cause we’re headed toward Zion, yeah
(Outro Chorus)
I say go do you, now travel far
Share your stories and earn your scars, it’s you
Said you are the one, you will answer to when this life is done
Don’t waste a minute, jump in the river
Wash yourself clean so you can deliver you
The story of you, the story of you
The story of you, the story of you
