Figure It Out

(Verse 1)

You’re taking up space and you’re burning through time,

Counting your breaths like they’re nickels and dimes.

But you weren’t spat out as a cosmic mistake,

You’re a choice that was made, and there’s plenty at stake.

That hunger you feel isn’t just in your head,

It’s the tax on the living for not being dead.

You’re a tool in the hand that is waiting to move,

With an edge to be sharpened and something to prove.

(Chorus)

God made you to be something, so you can’t be nothing at all,

He didn’t wake you up just to watch you be small.

There’s a knot in your gut wrapped in a fire of doubt

God put you here for a reason— now go figure it out.

(Verse 2)

Stop waiting for signs or a hand from the sky,

The answer is hidden in the "do" not the "why."

If you’re waiting for perfection, you’re waiting for rot,

While you choke on the potential of all that you’ve got.

It’s a debt you’ve inherited, heavy and cold,

To find the one story that needs to be told.

So walk through the wreckage and look for the spark,

You’re the only thing standing between us and the dark.

(Chorus)

God made you to be something, so you can’t be nothing at all,

He didn’t wake you up just to watch you be small.

There’s a knot in your gut wrapped in a fire of doubt

God put you here for a reason— now go figure it out.

(Bridge)

It’s a violent demand, it’s a beautiful weight,

To know that you’re here and it isn’t just fate.

Don’t walk off the stage while the lights are still bright,

Don’t leave us in silence, don’t give up the fight.

(Outro)

Earn the air.

Own the room.

He put you here for a reason.

Get to work.

You’ve got to be something.
