Father Knows Best

Father knows Best

Born to a virgin, they said it couldn’t be so.
For the Son of God, to be lying there so low.

Not much of a childhood, I grew to know the plan.
I needed to be faithful for the salvation of every man.

I’m more than just a guy, a face in the crowd
The haters will spit, but the believers will bow

I knew it wouldn’t be peaceful but I was meant to die
It might be hard, but for my Father, I’ll try.

I’m meant to ride with clouds beneath my knees,
And Ill suffer for your sin, where no one else will see.

I’ll be alone for a while, so someday we’ll be together
I beg for release, but Father said it’s for the better

They’ll take me then and upon my head some thorns
They’ll be the scared and frightened ones when the sky is filled with horns.

I fade in the pain, hanging high above
Take away my mother, and make sure she knows my love

They’re pleased with the murder, gone is the Son
Forgive them my Father; they know not what they’ve done

One day the children will be home, sitting at my knee
Once blind and unbelieving, but then they’ll finally see.

The plan we fought for worked, we did it; you and me
We’ll forever be in His glory, and live infinitely.

Just Love Me



Compliment me.

We'll start a romance.

First things first, love me.

inside of me


I can’t help but fly
I’m more than just a girl looking for love
More than just a face in the crowd, a number on the team
But sometimes, it’s hard to be me



Inside of me, I know who I am
Others want to define me but I let then know who I am
I stand where I stand
I kneel where I kneel

I’m someone’s daughter, niece, friend
Wrapped around my dad’s finger
My biggest fan is mom

Inside of me, I wish I could fall on all fours
I wish my face could be wet with tears
Let me stumble just once


Heroes have the right to bleed
And even stars burn to the earth
People watch for me to fall; they make wishes on me.

Men are meant to rise
Watch me ride with a cloud beneath my feet
When I get there, I’ll go higher still

Inside of me, I’m greater with the hurt
Pain; a common sense
Correlated with victory, there is no win without a loss

They’re not out to find my better part
But the part they want to find
I’ll stand holding hands with the Sun
I shine regardless of the rain


It’s not easy, I’m more,
I’m more. Inside of me.
