Be Still

(album: Why Me? Why Not. - 2019)

Up on the altar of sacrifice
Can't get in the habit, of thinking twice
Lit up my heart in a funeral blaze
Gonna live for something beside yesterdays

I've been waiting for this moment for too long

My mama said, "Keep moving
Though you're down, you're gonna rise again
Come on, darling, don't get in your head
You know you know the wheels still in spin
Even though your heart is breaking
And the changes all keep changing
You be still"

You can try me 'til kingdom come
I got a heart like a beating drum
I see hot summer lightning, hear the crack in the sky
Jump out of the trench, boys, we were born to die

I been waiting for this moment for too long

My mama said, "Keep moving
Though you're down, you're gonna rise again
Come on, darling, don't get in your head
You know you know the wheels still in spin
Even though your heart is breaking
And the changes all keep changing
You be still"

My mama said, "Keep moving
Though you're down, you're gonna rise again
Come on, darling, don't get in your head
You know you know the wheels still in spin
Even though your heart is breaking
And the changes all keep changing
You be still"
