if i lost everything Lyrics

If I lost everything

And become a star in the sky

Would I ponder on the past and feel alright

If I lost everything

Would I be content with the choices that I made and way I used my time

If I lost everything

And they made a movie would I watch and feel embarrassed of the things I left behind

If I lost everything

Yeah, I never cared for the throne

I just go where I go

Like Katy Perry I'm a plastic bag

That drifts to where the wind blows

Man, I didn't think God had chose

Me to use what I've wrote

To heal the world and become a light

For people stuck on their own

But here I am with this chance

That God has placed in my hands

I have to make a decision if I'm gon' trust the Lord or stick with my plans

I don't know if I'm capable to be a leader since I've been in the stands

Staring at a whole crowd of people in need of healing but don't see no hands

Reaching out

Trying to help 'em to the finish line

I hear the shouts

But I claim I ain't got extra time

I feel the doubts

I see the pain that's hiding in their eyes

They in the clouds

Searching for someone to bail 'em out but I've been lost

Drawing maps while in the darkest parts without a cost

Until I realized I bartered my heart for a loss

While God was calling asking bout the arc

But how do I express that I didn't even start

If I lost everything

And become a star in the sky

would I ponder on the past and feel alright

If I lost everything

Would I be content with the choices that I made and way I used my time

If I lost everything

And they made a movie would I watch and feel embarrassed of the things I left behind

If I lost everything

Would I wanna share a bunch of stories or just keep it to myself like I'm a mime

[Hook Extended]

If I lost everything

Would I still feel on the run

If I lost everything

Would I still feel life in my lungs

If I lost everything

Would I be proud of what I've done

If I lost everything

Would it still feel like I'd won

Yeah, I thought I found success

But I didn't feel no different

Oh, that's cause on this journey

I had changed the definition

I used to think it meant to find a life that's filled with riches

But now success to me ain't just about a thriving business

Nah, success to me would start with faith in God as most important

Then relationships with family and your friends who are supportive

Then doing what you love, spreading happiness and kindness on this planet

Is success to me, I promise you can quote it

And remember that

Good people don't live a perfect life

But good people they know their wrong from right

Yeah, you ever think bout what you'll leave behind

Like did you make a difference, were you someone else's shed of light

Yeah, did you maximize your length of time

Or did you let your life just pass you by

Did you let yourself make your own decisions

Or just let the ones around you go and dictate what you went and tried

If I lost everything

And become a star in the sky

Would I ponder on the past and feel alright

If I lost everything

Would I be content with the choices that I made and way I used my time

If I lost everything

And they made a movie would I watch and feel embarrassed of the things I left behind

If I lost everything

Would I wanna share a bunch of stories or just keep it to myself like I'm a mime
