Vincent Boyd - God Knows Lyrics

What's life to a 22 year old
Tryna find their pace in this race as the years go?
Where do the real go?
We all might not end at the top but we all start at zero
As far as my fears go
The less scared I become, the more I near home
But When I let em' take control of me the tears flow
I often crash switching lanes too fast
So now I tend to veer slow
Just because you can't always be the hero
Doesn't mean you let em' bring the villain outta you
You can still grow
Even when you feel trapped
And you're laying on your back with your head on the pillow
Right beyond the cracks there's a light and still shows
And God still knows
And momma taught me better than to slouch
And if I didn't listen she was pullin on my earlobe
Now I sit upright like a field goal
Now I'm done killin time cuz it kills slow
And don't ask me if I have it figured it out yet
The answers still no
Even when the light's red, Imma still go
Even in the summertime I can feel cold

But God still knows

And the days, they still go, go
And the days they still go, go
And the days, they still go, go
And the days they still go, go

And the pain it still shows, shows
And the pain it still shows, shows
And the pain it still shows, shows
And the pain it still shows, shows

And the days they still go, go, go
Go, go, go
Go, go, go
Go, go, go

I'm just keepin on
Feelin off
But keepin on

I just sing a song
And move along
I Move along

Is this where I belong?
What if I'm off?
What if I'm wrong?

Till' these sins be gone
I'll sing these songs
And move it on

Let me off of the rails
Let me offer my truth
Lemme talk my shit
Lemme water my roots
You can feel this pain
Lemme feel yours too

It's something bout the way the clouds move and how they take on all of their shapes
Starin up predicting every move they oughta make
Give you my life but would you offer the same?
Why are they so scared to dive in but got me out here walkin the plank?
It doesn't correlate
They ain't talkin my lang
I ain't shootin for the stars anymore, Imma aim
Past em', cuz let's be honest most stars are the same
They all died years ago it's just the stall of their rays
I be working out these thoughts like I'm joggin my brain
(Said I be working out these thoughts like I'm joggin my brain, yeah)

I showed up awfully late
But I'm here and I'm admitting all my faults while their talkin is fake
Bunch of excuses are usually what they oughta make
Don't you worry bout what place or where you are in this race
Cuz everybody's start is the same
It's just a matter of if you finish after fallin over multiple things
Cuz some don't, they think it's all just a game
But it's not it's
Life

I'm just keepin on
Feelin off
But keepin on

I just sing a song
And move along
I Move along

Is this where I belong?
What if I'm off?
What if I'm wrong?

Till' these sins be gone
I'll sing these songs
And move it on
