"The Calm" lyrics
Fierce thunder crashes through the sky off in the distance
And I'm pouring like the rain, contemplating my existence
Will the rain bring flowers to my soul or will I simply wash away
With all the hurt and pain that seems to come my way
Lightning struck from east to west and split the heavens open
And I'm living day by day off of prayer and simply hoping
That like a storm I'll finally find calm and sunny weather
That for once I might grow up, try to get my ass and act together
Because life ain't meant to be all doom and gloom
And our souls will die if we just see what's on the news
And them neon lights ain't never once been good to me
I wanna be wise, the kind you find in the songs
I am the storm
But I wanna be the calm
Fell to my knees as the breeze turned into wind
Screaming at the God, Lord, forgive me of my sins
And I've been running, gunning most of my life
But I can't escape the wind within this Category 5, Category 5
Because life ain't meant to be all doom and gloom
And our souls will die if we just see what's on the news
And them neon lights ain't never once been good to me
I wanna be wise, the kind you find in the songs
I am the storm
But I wanna be the calm
Slide on my boots and I'll go about my way
Dodging every bullet that is coming day by day
Fighting evil, doing good, loving people as I should
Don't wanna be a wish I would, 'cause I wish I would ain't going
Where I am
And I pray you're going where I am
Because I want to bring high to every room
And our souls won't die if we just see that He's the truth
And them neon lights don't seem to shine as bright to me
And I'm becoming wise, the kind you find in the songs
I am the storm
But I wanna be the calm
I am the storm
But I wanna be the calm
I was the storm
But He's making me the calm
And I'm pouring like the rain, contemplating my existence
Will the rain bring flowers to my soul or will I simply wash away
With all the hurt and pain that seems to come my way
Lightning struck from east to west and split the heavens open
And I'm living day by day off of prayer and simply hoping
That like a storm I'll finally find calm and sunny weather
That for once I might grow up, try to get my ass and act together
Because life ain't meant to be all doom and gloom
And our souls will die if we just see what's on the news
And them neon lights ain't never once been good to me
I wanna be wise, the kind you find in the songs
I am the storm
But I wanna be the calm
Fell to my knees as the breeze turned into wind
Screaming at the God, Lord, forgive me of my sins
And I've been running, gunning most of my life
But I can't escape the wind within this Category 5, Category 5
Because life ain't meant to be all doom and gloom
And our souls will die if we just see what's on the news
And them neon lights ain't never once been good to me
I wanna be wise, the kind you find in the songs
I am the storm
But I wanna be the calm
Slide on my boots and I'll go about my way
Dodging every bullet that is coming day by day
Fighting evil, doing good, loving people as I should
Don't wanna be a wish I would, 'cause I wish I would ain't going
Where I am
And I pray you're going where I am
Because I want to bring high to every room
And our souls won't die if we just see that He's the truth
And them neon lights don't seem to shine as bright to me
And I'm becoming wise, the kind you find in the songs
I am the storm
But I wanna be the calm
I am the storm
But I wanna be the calm
I was the storm
But He's making me the calm
