Faith Over Fear Lyrics

What if I told you

You had a choice?

Faith or fear

Would you believe in your wide-eyed

And wildest daydreams?

Or would you tell your inner child

To get back to reality?

I haven't seen you in a long time

Always loving you at the wrong time

Love you as a friend but it's still hard right

In the car play you a song I wrote about our time

Do you remember you're the reason that I songwrite?

Now I sit alone on Fall nights

My heart breaks music's part-time

Thinkin' back two Septembers when I was really wrong, right?

Sing "I love you" forever but never get the song right

I tell myself faith over fear

Faith over fear

Sometimes the message can get mumbled

I'll repeat until it's clear

Faith over fear

Faith over fear

I find happiness here

But still as frayed as a deer

People I've been letting go

Dreams like adios (I give it to God)

'Cuz reality is kicking in

And I'm the joke

Can you fucking pass the bowl?

I tend to lose control

'Cuz these intrusive thoughts

Flood in again and bruise the soul

Yeah I'm chasing lotta goals

And making lotta dough

But I'm really wasting living

If I'm honest though

I cannot get me right

I gotta write me these lines

My mind always alight

My mind aint been alright

But I say I'm fine

I'm getting richer and sicker

It's twisted the mixture

Of crazy that's up in my brain

I'm switchin' my mission

To spitting precision

'Cuz music's what makes me okay

But they're sitting restricting

The depths of my vision

Saying this shit is only a phase

Well, money is only some pape's,

But you're chasing it anyways

Pause

Let me add a note

I'm lost

There aint an antidote

Poison but I cannot choke

Gotta tell my anecdotes

Let you know I love you

'Fore I float on off from overdose

This my dream

They couldn't pay me stop

You on my team?

Just stay til i pop

I need to cease

With the wait and the watch

I need to seize what I pray that I got

On my way to the top

On the way to my bag

Chasing my dreams

But the weight on my back

Aint light as it seems

'Cuz I've been cooking up hundreds of tracks

Still I'm too troubled with fear to release

And that is so whack

That is so weak

I think that is the problem with me

I'm so wrapped up in "what do they think"

I don't ask who I want to be

People I've been letting go

Dreams like adios (I give it to God)

'Cuz reality is kicking in

And I'm the joke

Can you fucking pass the bowl?

I tend to lose control

'Cuz these intrusive thoughts

Flood in again and bruise the soul

Faith over fear
