Covet - Beautiful Eulogy[00:00:00]
I heard early in life you deal with the hand your delt[00:00:02]
But it was unconcerned words from people[00:00:37]
Who never felt or Never needed [00:00:39]
I pleaded so many times to be seated among[00:00:40]
The wealthy only to be greeted with a blank look for[00:00:43]
Looking for help [00:00:45]
You can see it in my face got me dreaming[00:00:45]
Of leaving this place to obtain a better life for mine[00:00:48]
And aspire to provide for my wife and I I've never been[00:00:51]
Afraid to use my hands or get them dirty infact I work[00:00:53]
Just as hard as any other man If I could get just one[00:00:55]
Wish my hope would be to get one chance to strike it rich[00:00:58]
And switch my circumstance and advance myself to count my[00:01:01]
Self as one of them You know them the ones who never[00:01:03]
Have to pretend to be who have money for everything [00:01:06]
Who Never have any enemies [00:01:09]
Who write checks then check out and[00:01:10]
Never have to worry about anything [00:01:12]
I wanna live like that[00:01:14]
Because what they got is a lot more appealing than what I[00:01:15]
Got They got no care for me so I should take a little bit[00:01:17]
Of what they got why not [00:01:20]
Fast forward past my formative years and it appears I'm[00:01:43]
Stuck here Looking back on wasted years and I got nothing[00:01:45]
To look forward to Unclear where to steer where to go or[00:01:47]
How to get far from here Far away from the shed where I[00:01:50]
Lay my head and often shed my tears Deep down I long for[00:01:53]
A place to belong safe and calm It seems I always went[00:01:56]
The wrong way now all my dreams are gone No destination[00:01:58]
Left for me no destiny to manifest Trying to catch butterflies [00:02:01]
But I got a hole in my net I want to escape and[00:02:03]
Run away because every day I'm forced to fake it If the[00:02:06]
Opportunity showed it's ugly face then I would take it [00:02:09]
And no one would expect it guess I never had the heart to[00:02:11]
Tell them I wanted a fresh start cause I've been barely[00:02:14]
Getting by for a long time It's easier to leave and never[00:02:16]
Have to see them bleed and I might sound like a coward but[00:02:19]
Inside I feel powerless They say the eyes are the windows[00:02:21]
To your soul if so then my windows are broken glass [00:02:24]
Shattered pieces that's where I hide and keep my secrets at [00:02:27]
Before the world began and the fall of man [00:03:03]
You unfolded the drama of salvation's plan [00:03:06]
And though we violate we're cursed by the law [00:03:09]
He sent his son to die and he absorbed it all [00:03:12]
We covet we kill our throats are open graves [00:03:15]
We lie and we steal but he still saves [00:03:17]
It's happening now new hearts will burn [00:03:20]
All creation yearns for the King's return [00:03:23]
Before the world began and the fall of man [00:03:26]
You unfolded the drama of salvation's plan [00:03:29]
And though we violate we're cursed by the law [00:03:32]
He sent his son to die and he absorbed it all [00:03:34]
We covet we kill our throats are open graves [00:03:37]
We lie and we steal but he still saves [00:03:40]
It's happening now new hearts will burn [00:03:43]
All creation yearns for the King's return[00:03:46]
