Church Sign

Spending my days hiding from the sun
Wondering where I went wrong
The church sign said "You can only have potential for so long"
Potential for so long, potential for so long
The church sign said "You can only have potential for so long"

I dreamt I was a rambling man, I roamed from town to town
But when I woke I was sad to see my feet still on the ground
My feet were on the ground, feet stuck on the ground
When I woke I was sad to see my feet still on the ground

But I've been around, I've been knocked down
I went in search of answers many miles from my home
No one could show them to me, till I understood the beauty
Of a garden overgrown

They say life is like a lighting bolt, you blink and then it's gone
But when you choose the fallen fruit trust me life is long
Life can be so long, life can be so long
When you choose the fallen fruit, trust me, life is long

Everyone's got makeup on cause they got scars to hide
Truth be told no one in here has never told a lie
Never told no lies, never told no lies
Truth be told no one in here has never told a lie

But I've been around, I've been knocked down
I went in search of answers many miles from my home
No one could show them to me, till I understood the beauty
Of a garden overgrown

Now I'm spending my days following the sun
Singing to my favorite songs
The church sign said "You can only have potential for so long"
