Joy Gives Us Wings (feat. Brian)

Joy gives us wings Joy gives us wings to fly so high We only really feel 2 things, joy and pain Feels like they live in different quarters, but the coin's the same The way you feel can turn on a dime, to coin a phrase When you endure the rain, the sun's a joy to behold Especially when the world is wet with tears From the pain and grief, it's hard to forget your fears And when everyday a new threat seems to appear Look to the edge of the atmosphere, what brings joy to your soul When sadness comes to visit, my spirit feels weak When depression shows up, I can't even speak Anxiety stops by and tries to trick my mind Got me feeling dead inside, pain destroying the home inside my heart Lord forgive me for these trespasses My heart belongs to You, that's Your home, I give it back And instantly I feel relief, my joy returns, I'm better now To keep my spirit from the rain, I fly above the clouds Joy gives us wings Joy gives us wings to fly so high Joy gives us wings Joy gives us wings to fly so high I woke up this morning with a lot to say Went inside bathroom splashed some water on my face Little devil on my shoulder started talking crazy I've been running for so long Why he gotta chase me? Put up 4 walls just to keep me safe I got the whole wide world inside a picture frame And that's enough ain't it? But that's just him talking So I sit locked in These mental chains The glass walls keep me contained I sit and I pray I meditate and then zone Bring my soul out If I don't break it, my whole life is wasted I got light inside my heart, so I gotta make it Grab a chair, throw it out the wall I see the cracks in it Put my fist through it I hear the birds chirping. This is God's music I feel inner peace when my feet hit the grass I feel blessed This too shall pass Joy gives us wings Joy gives us wings to fly so high Joy gives us wings Joy gives us wings to fly so high
