At times I feel like Otis
on that dock on high
Dreams fading, time a wasting
watching tides roll by
And at times I feel like Cooke
staying on the run
After stirring up some souls
trusting change gon' come
Then
I stop
and I think to myself
That life ain't all it seems
We're all caught up, chasing money and things
But it ain't either, probably neither of
that happiness brings
At any moment in time, our lives could crumble away
It's our loved ones, that we'll call on
on that very day
And at times I feel like Jonah
being swallowed up whole
After running from the moments
when I lose control
And at times I feel like David
herding sheep for days
Facing giants
in reliance of a thing called grace
At times I feel like Otis
on that dock on high
Dreams fading, time a wasting
watching tides roll by
And at times I feel like Cooke
staying on the run
After stirring up some souls
trusting change gon' come
Then
I stop
and I think to myself
That life ain't all it seems
We're all caught up, chasing money and things
But it ain't either, probably neither of
that happiness brings
At any moment in time, our lives could crumble away
It's our loved ones, that we'll call on
on that very day
And at times I feel like Jonah
being swallowed up whole
After running from the moments
when I lose control
And at times I feel like David
herding sheep for days
Facing giants
in reliance of a thing called grace
