One Life Lyrics

Straight out the ashes like a phoenix Lord I've been burning forever

Crumbling with my endeavors, our relationship severed

I've been, losing days, losing nights, losing sleep

I don't pray, I don't fight, I just drown in the deep

And I just feel like the only way for me to find freedom

Is by emptying my glass like it's going out of season

Feel like, the brightest star but suffocated by shadow

Can I, even depart with my faith being so shallow

New life cannot exist without the death of my oppressor

Never will I let my darkness ruin everything I treasure

So I, prepare to leave behind a life so unfulfilling

For happiness & inner peace I'm more than ready & willing

No we ain't perfect but we make life worth it

No we ain't perfect but we make life worth it

Hands to the sky, Lord before I die

Let me dream a little dream I can truly make mine

No I'm not perfect but one thing is for certain

I'll forever stand even when I'm feeling burdened

Heart wide open, head held high

Dream's in motion with my hands to the sky

This is my moment & I promise I won't miss it

They say you only get one life to live so yea I'm gonna live it

Listen, I've seen the darkest nights but also the brightest days

You can't have sun without the rain to teach you to appreciate

The little things in life that we oh so take for granted

Understand it's not status but rather love that keeps us balanced

Friends & family, on you I will forever lean

Show my niece & nephew they can have everything that they dream

No matter how far away my journey decides to take me

I'm coming right back to you that's a promise not a maybe

As long as I'm blessed with the breath of life, a blank page

Will not exist in the slightest, there will never be an empty stage

All praise be to God in all his Glory

This is only the beginning of a soon forever story

No we ain't perfect but we make life worth it

No we ain't perfect but we make life worth it

Hands to the sky, Lord before I die

Let me dream a little dream I can truly make mine

No I'm not perfect but one thing is for certain

I'll forever stand even when I'm feeling burdened

Heart wide open, head held high

Dream's in motion with my hands to the sky

This is my moment & I promise I won't miss it

They say you only get one life to live so yea I'm gonna live it
