Lookin' Back

Looking out at the world and wondering what happened

So much hurt, hearts destroyed
And I don't know if I've adapted
To face the weight that Is comin'
To face harder days that are runnin' at me
Man I'm falling down deep

When you're in the dark of night and you think that you're world's fallin' apart
Lift your head to the sky of stars above you
Listen for God's voice he says: "You're my child I love you, you're my child I love you"
I'm never too far

Why am I lookin' back
At everything that's hurt me
It's like eveything concerns me
I'm lookin' back
What does the future hold for me
With all the things that I'll face
It feels like life is a race
With all this pain that's comin' my way
Sometimes life feels like prison
But I know it's worth livin'
Why am I looking back

This world makes it difficult to know what to believe, but the truth is in our creator

All these assumptions that just ain't true
Am I really strong enough
To face the weight that is comin'
to face all the pain that is runnin' at me
But I want you to know that

All the things in this world out of proportion they've swirled
All the things in this world man they've got me unfurled
How does the future look I hope it's not full of pain
Cuz Livin' in this world man it's left it's stain

I think I'm lookin' back cuz I don't know what to think
Of my past, of my present, in my future I could sink
I'm hopin' when the future comes I'll see some sort of chink
Cuz the heart of the Earth is all filled with blackened ink
