Twenty One

They say that there's no hope Don't think, do what you're told No We've lost our way Abandoned foundations on which we were made We're all dying of the same disease I looked for the answer and the problem was me All along we've been searching for a place to call our home You and I will never learn if we try to do this on our own Underneath it all we are all the same (all the same) Never knowing where to go, lost in our way Can we ever escape? Can we decide our fate? Let go I'm more than familiar With feeling like I've failed to meet everyone's expectations When every definition of success becomes different It's hard to really feel like you're making a difference They say that there's no hope Don't think, do what you're told Dare to be different, to break the mold Live your life with intention Go forth and be bold All along we've been searching for a place to call our home You and I will never learn if we try to do this on our own Why do we try to overcomplicate the things That used to be so simple? So step back, you'll be able to see That your purpose in life is not just to be Underneath it all we are all the same (all the same) Never knowing where to go, lost in our way Can we ever escape? Can we decide our fate? Underneath it all we are all the same (all the same) Never knowing where to go, lost in our way Can we ever escape? Can we decide our fate? I've come to grips with the fact That I'll never be able to change my own past But I've found strength in divine perspective It took me twenty one years to realize Hope, love, and faith are how we survive Grace sustains me, pain is ending There's still hope
