Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I try to picture the girl
Through a looking glass
And see her as a carbon atom
See her eyes and stare back at them
See that girl
As her own new world
Though her home is on the surfaces, she is still a universe
[Verse 2]
Glory, God, oh, God is peekin' through the blinds
Are we all here standin' naked
Takin' guesses at the actual date and time
Oh, my,  justifying reasons why
Is an absolutely insane resolution to live by
[Verse 3]
Live high
Live mighty
Live righteously
Takin' it easy
Live high
Live mighty
Live righteously
[Verse 4]
And try to picture the man
To always have an open hand
And see Him as a givin' tree
See Him as matter, matter fact, he's not a beast
Oh, no, not the Devil either
Always a good deed doer
And it's laughter that we're making, after all
[Verse 5]
The call of the wild is still an ordination, why?
In the order of the primates
All our politics are too late
Oh, my, the congregation in my mind
Is this assembly singin' of gratitude
Practicin' their lovin' for You
[Verse 6]
Live high
Live mighty
Live righteously
Takin' it easy
Live high
Live mighty
Oh, live righteously
[Verse 7]
Let's sing it out
And just take it easy
And celebrate the malleable reality
You see, nothin' is ever as it seems
Yeah, this life is but a dream
[Verse 8]
Oh
(Lift me up to the Almighty) Oh, yeah
Oh-whoa (Raise your hands and start acknowledgin')
(Breathe if you're livin' in righteousness)
(Then you're livin' the easy way)
(Just, just, take, take, takin' it easy)
[Verse 9]
Live high, live high
Live mighty, mighty, mighty, oh
Live righteously (Livin' righteously)
And takin' it easy, live high (Live high)
Live mighty (Lift me up to Him)
Oh, live righteously (Livin' righteously)
Just take, just, just, a-takin' it easy
High (Live high)
Oh, live mighty, mighty (Celebrate and feel the love inside)
Oh, live righteously
Singin' ah, just take it easy (Take it easy)
Said live high
Oh, live righteously
Just take it easy
