Greg Mccarthy - Tree of Life lyrics

Every day I wake up for The daily trial And yeah I try Brush my teeth before I drink some coffee Wash my face its on and on a routine Make it out the flat And to the corner shop Where they don't sell a lot Buy a coke and read the magazines Faces staring back I seen on TV When I get to work I'm told I'm on the clock Tick tock tick tock tick tock Well I don't like these four walls that I'm seeing So it's behind my eyes where I'll be dreaming We are but a flower on this tree of life And no I don't believe that anybody dies Cause we can fly [Chorus] We crawled out of the sea Climbed into the trees Chopped down the forests to build our cities If we put this bird in a cage It will not learn to sing We follow our dreams That turn into schemes Hunger for profits and counts up the gains Three little pigs And a big wolf All on the list Welcome to the party... Between morning and sunset I go through my day Amazed by the beauty in everything We got trees for lungs And birds to sing us to Life under skies of a dawn shining bright Last night I drank a bottle of the blood of Christ Who are they to say what kind of love ain't right When I was a child I always found that hard To understand Me, I share my love with everybody Now I got the power you can't stop me [Chorus] We crawled out of the sea Climbed into the trees Chopped down the forests to build our cities If we put this bird in a cage It will not learn to sing We follow our dreams That turn into schemes Hunger for profits and counts up the gains Three little pigs And a big wolf All on the list Welcome to the party If you're waiting on the hand of God Don't wait so long 'cause he's been and gone Look outside yourself to see You're not alone You're not alone Every day I wake up for the daily trial And yeah I try Brush my teeth before I drink some coffee Wash my face its on and on a routine You're waiting on the hand of God You're not alone You're not alone
