Stay looking for cliches to tell me that I'm okay
I look for substance to fill me with that love
And a little bit of party scene
Imitate the movie screen
Searchin' for a life mean so far away from human being
Fake outlets to distract me from the negatives
But in the end all they do is take me back to them
And now I'm sitting at a crossroad to decide
I sit down to write
Which way will I take this life?
And then I realize I have been so far gone
This path I've been on, had me lost in the wrong
Writing on this song, staying up til dawn
I see that everything that I needed was right there all along
And I'm like oh my god
The good that I've got, the blessings I have should be the focus of my thoughts
And when i find that I'm stuck stuck in a tough place
I should lean on this faith, I know I'll escape
This earth may full of some evil
But if you look hard you can find some good people
That can help you be full when you're feeling empty
And trust me, your life will become such a blessing
And it's on that I cling, on that I sing, it's on that at which my heart beats
And I feel so free nothing's ever stopping me
All my dreams better watch out cuz I know that I'll achieve
They might say this world's a darker place
Well I'mma shine right through I'mma be what I dream to
And I might hear I'll never make it there
But I have got this, so I promise lord above I know I'll concur
Better days await, that's what I'mma chase so stay up out my way
I'm living from the heart, forever I will be
Nothing ever stopping me, naw you can't cut my wings
Time to take off, headed for the sky, all this drive that's inside got me feeling so alive
I swear I'm on a mission, I know I'm gonna get it
Better than I've been ever been, please come and be a witness
See i got full control, and now its exponential
Once I lay this foundation its limitless potential
We will capitalize, we never gonna stop
Cause we out to make the time of our lives around the clock
From the heart, no regrets, if we're gonna live well we might as well make life the best
I know its' going to hit me with its trials and its tests
But now I know I'm ready for whatever comes next
Livin with every ounce of my heart nothing less
I spit it from my chest til there ain't nothing left
I promise I will be everything that I dream
Cuz it seems I am free like my heart's got wings
They might say this world's a darker place
Well I'mma shine right through I'mma be what I dream to
And I might hear I'll never make it there
But I have got this, so I promise lord above I know I'll concur
Better days await, that's what I'mma chase, so stay up out my way
I'm living from the heart, forever I will be
Nothing ever stopping me, naw you can't cut my wings
It may have taken me a while, but now I know
Now I know, just one rhyme ago
It may have taken me some time
But now I see, now I see I' ain't never letting heaven get too far from me
They might say this world's a darker place
Well I'mma shine right through I'mma be what I dream to
And I might hear I'll never make it there
But I have got this so I promise lord above I know I'll concur
Better days await, that's what I'mma chase so stay up out my way
I'm living from the heart, forever I will be
Nothing ever stopping me, naw you can't cut my wings. (Repeat)
