i
knew it was hope that kept me alive
i
never knew cold like i did that night
untangling
and coming down and seeing my whole life
trying
to be someone real is the hardest thing sometimes
and
they asked me if i knew jesus?
And
i remember walking these sidewalks back
before
things changed and man, they changed so fast
these
same stones that made my legs so strong
are
the same sidewalks i was sleeping on...
my
eyes have seen things they should never have
and
my body's been abused, broken, and smashed
and
i learned just like you to just look away
but
i wonder on my knees as i try to pray
do
any of us know jesus?
(chorus)
all
of these women, kids, men
blowing
in the wind...
and
we gonna live! We gonna find our way!
And
we gonna rise! We gonnna fly away!
And
we gonna live! We gonna find our way!
And
we gonna rise! We gonna fly away!
And
i remember walking these sidewalks back
before
things changed and man
they
change so fast...
these
same stones that'll make your legs so strong
are
the same sidewalks you could be sleeping on...
