Grains of Sand

Actions never cease the last lap we will increase
Our speed so fast that we pass those in the lead
Like a track athlete that will not accept defeat
Gauge the relevancy then focus energy on need
Where the passion runs deep like the traffic on the street
Sirens sound horns beep concentration is the key
We must be active to succeed for every action there's
A reaction guaranteed so the actions never cease
There are cycles and systems we do not hold the balance
To wildlife's existence in our sweaty little mittens
We're all a part of something bigger it's so hard for me to figure
The role that I'm to play in my own home
I need to filter what my kids see God can handle the ozone
We think we're responsible for what's out of our control
And the stuff that we can manage we manage to let it go
Giving children birth control instead of telling them to hold onto
Their childhood why would we encourage them to
Grow up in a hurry and experience the hurt accompanied by
All the worry hurry up and stay young children have fun
So many lessons in life that aren't meant for when you're under age
And all the pain that you face in your days is a part of growing up
One day you'll know enough for now relish every moment
It's all gone before you know it
Gone before you know it
Actions never cease the last lap we will increase
Our speed so fast that we pass those in the lead
Like a track athlete that will not accept defeat
Gauge the relevancy then focus energy on need
Where the passion runs deep like the traffic on the street
Sirens sound horns beep concentration is the key
We must be active to succeed for every action there's
A reaction guaranteed so the actions never cease
Open up the window
The crucial come right in so
That the movement is new
And blowing right through
We are the forgetful sons
Faith hope and love
With rage it blows the sand away
It's quickly moving out the doors
And in every room refining the floors
We are the distracted ones from
Faith hope and love
Actions never cease the last lap we will increase
Our speed so fast that we pass those in the lead
Like a track athlete that will not accept defeat
Gauge the relevancy then focus energy on need
Where the passion runs deep like the traffic on the street
Sirens sound horns beep concentration is the key
We must be active to succeed for every action
There's a reaction guaranteed so the actions never cease
There is so much concern for endangered species
They release these so called factual studies
That are proven to be inaccurate after they are published
What's known becomes blurred once something new is discovered
We can't over populate the earth when the worlds population
Could comfortably fit in Texas all these misinformation
Waves crash against every shore of every sea
Erosion breaks it all down
But it takes many years mountains crumble to the ground
Volcanoes emerge stones become dirt wind blows through the desert
Civilizations are preserved flesh becomes dust resting in the earth
Once the earth burns precipitation occurs vegetation returns
There is nature involved but natures in God's palm
Once flesh becomes dirt the spirit moves on
What's flesh really worth once the spirit moves on
Actions never cease the last lap we will increase
Our speed so fast that we pass those in the lead
Like a track athlete that will not accept defeat
Gauge the relevancy then focus energy on need
Where the passion runs deep like the traffic on the street
Sirens sound horns beep concentration is the key
We must be active to succeed for every action
There's a reaction guaranteed so the actions never cease
