| My Calling |
As you strum your guitar and I sing out my feelings
How loud should I be able to scream?
As we drive in the car and I pump Paula's song up
How long should I hold on to this dream?
I'll never give up and I'll never stop fighting
My calling is calling me
I'll never look back and I'll always be trying
To conquer what was meant to be
As I read a book and I loose concentration
How long should I stare at this page?
As they all start to look and I feel a loss of power
How much loss of power is okay?
I'll never give up and I'll never stop fighting
My calling is calling me
I'll never look back and I'll always be trying
To conquer what was meant to be
I've always pondered this much and thought about everything
'Cause the world seems like such an outside entity
But I could never feel lost when there's so much power
In fighting for my calling…My calling is calling me
As so many say nay and I feel discouraged
How long should I hold my head down?
As I look up and say that I won't be discouraged
How often must I wear this crown?
I'll never give up and I'll never stop fighting
My calling is calling me
I'll never look back and I'll always be trying
To conquer what was meant to be |

| Strong and Able |
Don't assume that I can take it
Just because I can
Don't pronounce my virtue
Based on souly where I am
The obvious could be deceiving
Misrepresenting what is here
Won't let you in unless you're worthy
Tell me everything you fear
What's the matter?
You look to me to shatter
You come to me to get stable
Just because I'm strong and able
Don't say you love me wholly
While adoring someone else
Naïve is one of my flavors
But pride's higher on my shelf
Listen to my words now
As I will be disclosing me
Don't look at me through stained glass
Until you've gained integrity
What's the matter?
You look to me to shatter
You come to me to get stable
Just because I'm strong and able
Don't assume that I can help you
Don't view me from far away
Hear me when I speak completely
Black and white just feel better than grey
What's the matter?
You look to me to shatter
You come to me to get stable
Just because I'm strong and able |

| "G" |
I find it interesting
The way God is spelled with a capital "G"
I think that it is something
But if not a person why are these letters key
Isn't it encompassing?
Whether nature or nurture, it's a hand on my knee
Pardon, I seem revolting
We need it there to not go crazy
Don't hand me a book and tell me it's okay
Not gonna lay in the bed that someone else has made
It seems to me
That "God" is my conscience
It's my ability to
Make decisions for me
Call it your Jesus
Or a Buddhist presence
I think we each try to
Glisten godly
Somehow desiring
Follow the leader yhrough brainwashing
Kneeling and pondering
Why God is different for so many
Don't hand me a book and tell me it's okay
Not gonna lay in the bed that someone else has made
It seems to me
That "God" is my conscience
It's my ability to
Make decisions for me
Call it your Jesus
Or a Buddhist presence
I think we each try to
Glisten godly
If not accepting the son is gonna send me down
Wanna get my money's worth so, tell me now
If my soul is up for judgment I don't want to know
'Cause it's about organization and I've let that go
Secretly wondering
Are we in this together or individually
Not wanting
To make these decisions while still questioning |
