Heart Like A Lion

(album: Courage To Grow - 2007)

A heart like a lion, a burning like fire
Awaiting just to be set free
A heart like a lion, a burning like fire
How can I bear captivity

Some they tell me I'm a fool
A fool who walks this road alone
So afraid of making changes
Remember that nothing is carved in stone
Oh tell me why we are so afraid of
The secrets locked within our souls
Everything that we're made of
Is dying just to be exposed oh yea

So don't turn your back on yourself
'Cause there's nowhere to run
You know your life's ain't a practice run
It's time to wake up your mind, oh yeah, yeah
For maybe tomorrow will never come
Or maybe it will but by then it's too late, uh huh
There's nothing left to do but cry, oh yeah
So now you cry and you don't know why
And now you cry but you don't know why, oh yeah

A heart like a lion, a burning like fire
Awaiting just to be set free, oh yes
A heart like a lion, a burning like fire
How can I bear captivity

So what you want to be now
Well it's time to realize
That everything you need now
Has been right in front of your eyes, yeah
Don't point your fingers and blame
Remember it's never too late to change
Don't point your fingers and blame
Remember it will be okay

So don't turn your back on yourself
'Cause there's nowhere to run
You know your life's ain't a practice run
It's time to wake up your mind, oh yeah
Maybe tomorrow will never come
Or maybe it will but by then it's too late, uh huh
There's nothing left to do but cry, oh yeah
And now you cry but you don't know why
And now you cry but you don't know why

You better get up, you better get out
You better get up and turn your life around
You only live once, you better act now
'Cause you never know when
It's gonna come back around, yeah

A heart like a lion, a burning like fire
Awaiting just to be set free, oh yeah, yeah
A heart like a lion, a burning like fire
How can I bear captivity
Oh yeah, yeah

Oh yeah, yeah
A heart like a lion
A heart like a lion
A heart like a lion
