Sacred Sounds: Embracing Redemption Through Daily Rituals
Lyrics
EVERYDAY I CLIMB THE SAME TREE
Every day, I face the same challenges or situations.
I EAT THE APPLE THAT YOU OFFER ME
I accept the consequences or offerings presented to me.
EVERYDAY I GOTTA BURN SOME
Every day, I need to confront or overcome difficulties.
LIKE A CANDLE IN THE HOT SUN
I endure hardships, akin to a candle in the hot sun.
IN YOUR GARDEN THERE'S A NEW SOUND
In your domain, there's a new, possibly divine, sound.
MAYBE HERE IS WHERE I BOW DOWN
Perhaps here is where I humbly submit or worship.
TO PRAY THAT I COULD BE A BETTER ONE
I pray daily to become a better person.
WALKING ON YOUR SACRED GROUND
I walk on your sacred, revered territory.
BAPTIZED WHEN YOU SAY MY NAME DEAR
I feel spiritually cleansed when you mention my name, dear.
THIS TIME I BELIEVE YOU WERE SENT HERE
This time, I believe you were sent to guide me.
EXCEPT MY GIFT THAT YOU REFUSE
You reject my offering or talent, but that's acceptable.
BUT IT'S ALRIGHT, TAKE IT FROM ME, THEY SAID
Even though my gift is refused, it's okay, as advised by others.
I TRIED TO WALK AMONG THE ANGELS
I attempted to live among angels, seeking spiritual elevation.
WHO COULD RESSURECT MY SOUL
I long for someone who can resurrect my soul.
YOUR WORDS KEEP ME BREATHING LIKE A DROWNING GIRL
Your words sustain me, like air for a drowning person.
RISING TO THE TOP OF THE SEA
I'm rising to the top, overcoming challenges like surfacing from the sea.
COME ON AND RESCUE ME, CAUSE I CAN HEAR YOU
Come and save me, as I can hear your guidance.
I DON'T FEAR YOU, AND I LISTEN LIKE IT'S GOSPEL
I don't fear you, and I listen to your words as if they were gospel.
EVERYDAY THERE'S MAGIC IN YOUR VEINS
Every day, there's a mystical or powerful essence in your being.
I LOST MY FAITH PLAYING DEVIL GAMES
I lost my faith by engaging in morally questionable activities.
AND EVERYDAY I GOTTA WAKE ALONE
Each day, I wake up alone, searching for meaning.
MY BELIEF HAS GOTTA FIND A HOME
My belief needs a place to belong or be affirmed.
ONLY YOU CAN STOP THIS DOWNPOUR
Only you have the power to end this metaphorical downpour of challenges.
I WEAR YOUR LOVE LIKE A SNOW STORM
I embrace your love like a snowstorm, wearing it passionately.
AND PRAY THAT I CAN BE YOUR FIRST CHOICE
I hope to be your first choice, praying for acceptance.
ACTING LIKE YOUR SAVIOR (chorus)
I act as if I am your savior, echoing the sentiment in the chorus.
Na na na na na na na na
