Thrive
[Verse 1]
Everyday is a test of my faith
Building back up from my unkept ways
Here, on Earth, where suffering pays your fare to stay

[Chorus]
And when we're gone
They’ll call to us from way beyond
In and out, like a torus
Same flesh, bones, but they feel foreign
I'm still mourning when I wake up
Just died to the body before this
Still bent on keeping me slave, but
I'm focused on what’s important
I'm focused on what's important

[Verse 2]
Back in this place again
Drowning in shame and shadows of mistakes I did
I know a heavy price comes from me wasting gifts
Fear I won't feel love, grace again
Flawеd man, woman, I relate to them
Judgеment, the same thing as self-hatred
We're all human, conditioning for a race that has no finishing

[Chorus]
And when we're gone (And when we're gone)
I know they learn from all our wrongs
In and out, like a torus
Same flesh, bones, but they feel foreign
I'm still mourning when I wake up
Just died to the body before this
Still bent on keeping me slave, but
I’m focused on what’s important
I'm focused on what’s important
