Greener (The Things That I've Imagined)

Never seen a grass as green
As anything I've ever dreamed
Never seen a rose as red
As the colors in my head
Mind's aroma sweet perfumes
Sweeter than a honey dew
Taste my labor
Bare the fruit
Hope I see a sky as blue as the

Things that I've imagined
The grass ain't greener on the other side
Tell me what's gon' happen
If I just live the life that God provides

Never seen failure displayed
On someone's social media page
Insecurities come to play
When you compare their mountaintop to your valley days
Cali blaze
Watts riot in the lightbulbs in your brain
Burning out from trying oh so hard to be the same
Find bouts of depression in the lining of your mental frame
Pinching pennies for your worth
The mirror's face you start to hate
From trying to duplicate what you were never meant to recreate
Baby girl, I promise you her life is not as great as the

Things that you've imagined
The grass ain't greener on the other side
Tell me what's gon' happen
If you just live the life that God provides

Never seen a shade as gray
As the sky right before it rains
Seasons change like highway lanes
Speeding just makes you crash and flame
Harvest comes when faith remains
Focus on His holy name
Realign with His purpose
'Cause that's where your worth is
Know God's always working
Just gotta put Him first and
Don't look at what anyone else is doing
'Cause they can't have what God has for you
So it's God that you must pursue
And He will do far greater than
The things that you've imagined
