Lyrics
I know that I'm not alone, I see the bags/ under everyone's eyes, like a bunch of white flags/
I recognize that I'm not the only one facing challenges; I see the exhaustion in everyone's eyes, akin to surrender.
Ready to just give up, had just about enough/ why is living so though, why did I choose to drink this cup?/
Expressing weariness and a desire to give up, questioning the difficulty of life and reflecting on personal choices.
This love that I'm searching everyday for/ from above, hear me uttering a "save LORD!"/
Searching for love daily and calling out to a higher power for salvation, using the term "save LORD."
'Cause my body and my spirit and my crowns/ every single thing seems heavy on my brow/
Feeling the weight of various aspects of life, including the body, spirit, and responsibilities.
And I sweat it, I want to shed it/ I want to go back in time and make edits/
Expressing a desire to release the burdens and a wish to change past actions.
I carry scars on my heart, but I just let it/ fester into anger, impatience imbedded/
Carrying emotional scars but allowing them to fester into negative emotions like anger and impatience.
But I read it in the Good Book, it said/ come to me all who are weary and I will give rest/
Referring to a biblical passage that invites those burdened to seek solace, finding reassurance in the Good Book.
So I believe that my burdens will leave me/ one day, but 'til then, I'll rest easy
Believing that, eventually, burdens will be lifted, expressing a commitment to rest easy in the meantime.
Oh, if I can't see what's in front of me
Acknowledging uncertainty about the future but expressing a willingness to find comfort by trusting a higher power.
I'll take Your hand and I'll rest easy
Committing to finding peace and solace by holding onto the guidance of a higher power.
I wonder how many songs use the same progression as this/
Reflecting on the commonality of musical patterns and wondering about the frequency of betrayal in love songs.
I wonder how many times lovers were betrayed with a kiss/
Questioning the sincerity of love, suggesting that betrayal can happen even with a seemingly affectionate gesture like a kiss.
A simple sentiment supersedes sentience and single souls sense the Supernatural's salience/
Exploring the idea that simple emotions often surpass intellectual understanding, and individuals can sense the presence of the supernatural.
And daily I'm affected by my weary mind/ many times I forget that love came down forgave my crimes/
Feeling the impact of a tired mind and acknowledging the forgiving nature of love in the face of personal faults.
I believe that You are my Shepherd tried and true/ when I can't see in front of me I put my trust in You/
Expressing trust in a higher power, referring to them as a faithful Shepherd, especially in times of uncertainty.
During the winter dark and cold and these summer nights/
Referencing challenging times in life, both during cold and dark winters and warm summer nights.
I'll lay my burdens on the One who took my every plight/
Choosing to entrust personal struggles to a divine figure who has already taken on every hardship.
And gave me wings so I could see the sky and take flight/
Grateful for the ability to rise above challenges, symbolized by receiving wings and the freedom to soar.
And perspectives from above show me my worries are trite/
Gaining perspective from a higher vantage point, realizing that worries are trivial when viewed from above.
I gaze upon the colors of the deep blue/ the burning warm glow of the sunset's truth/
Appreciating the beauty of nature, such as the deep blue colors and the truth revealed in the warmth of a sunset.
I let the air fill my lungs, and breathe out, and for a moment rest easy, singing out
Experiencing a moment of relief and ease by taking a breath and singing out, finding solace in the present.
If only it were easy to believe that in Your hands lies my security
Expressing the difficulty of fully trusting in a higher power for security, despite the desire for ease and belief.
But still I choose to persevere and try for the Author and Perfector of my life
Choosing to persist in faith and perseverance, acknowledging a higher force as the Author and Perfector of life.
