Lyrics

And everybody know the story of David and Goliath but this is bigger (D5)than triumph.

This is for the warrior, this is for (F5)you and I.

This is for euphoria, give me a piece (A5)of mind.

God is recording this!

(C5)Won’t you look in (D5)the sky?

Tell him you got the behavior of (D5)your neighbor, even when stability’s never in (F)your favor.

Fly with the turbulence, only last (Am)a minute.

Land on your dreams, (C5)and recognize you (D5)live it.

Walk through the valley of peace, with (D5)bare feet.

Run through the flames, that’s more passion (F)for me.

I passed that, this morning just so the (Am)world can see.

Got them wolves on (C5)me, no watch me (D5)like em clean.

I know, I know, my pride, my ghost, (Dm)my eyes, my lows, I know I know, it’s mind control.

I (F)know I could prosper, no imposter, prosecute (Am)my posture.

I stand up (C5)and I stand by (D5)it.
