I waited to long for this I'm a northern kid I determine where i'm going Earn my own respect You're gonna love me now As I'm coming out I'm feeling different nothings gonna calm me down It's a lovely day but my heart still aches I'm talking to the lord it's never hard to pray I'm on holy ground its my time now I think i found the reason its not working out I've been burning I've been burning I've been burning My eyes are red as my world keeps turning I've been burning I've been burning I've been burning My eyes are red as my world keeps turning They say I'm living in a shit whole Bless me with this soul Given me the space to grow The town don't get old Never gone get bored Listen to the way i roar We all walk the same but we don't talk the same I try to look for joy all i seem to find is pain You try to change the rules Now i learned to play the game This is just the way that it goes No time to run away Gotta live for today I see the weather change But you can't stop the rain Got no time for shade Light it up start the blaze You can feel the fires i blow I've been burning I've been burning I've been burning My eyes are red as my world keeps turning I've been burning I've been burning I've been burning My eyes are red as my world keeps turning As we climb the mountain On your faith we're counting Good lord We're working so hard to live Paying for cars or rent Some be acting like there balling When its all for pretend Rains coming down More stormy clouds Spirits lifted nothings gonna harm me now Is this the thanks i get All the time i spent Depending on you thinking you was a friend Oh lord let them hear my name Let them share my flames I've been burning I've been burning I've been burning My eyes are red as my world keeps turning I've been burning I've been burning I've been burning My eyes are red as my world keeps turning Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
