I belong to you You delight in me When everything around me seems to crumble down You hold me warmly in your wings I belong to you You delight in me And knowing that will make me sing the sweetest song This heart has ever sung! All of my grandparents dead and gone Though I hate it, I’m realizing that money talks I see my parents getting weaker, losing brawn Real life, real life (it ain’t slowin’ down for anybody) I’m seeing wrinkles under mama’s eyes I see the hobble and slowing pace of my father’s stride The grains are piling higher with the sands of time Real life, real life (it ain’t slowin’ down for anybody) My family is like a tablecloth Battered and mangled discolored with too many blots But only showing the world our pretty spots Real life, real life (it ain’t slowin’ down for anybody) Can you feel me, can you feel me? Cause the pain goes deep it’s getting chilly In this lonely place, belly of the beast, will it cease? Real life, real life (it ain’t slowin’ down for anybody) I thought I had my future planned out But it got jettisoned out there, where’d you land now? Swimming and paddling over to high ground Real life, real life (it ain’t slowin’ down for anybody) You can cross your “t’s” and dot the “i’s” So many of these plans inside of a man’s mind Without The Light’s direction, man, your hand’s tied Real life, real life (it ain’t slowin’ down for anybody) Did we really step on landmines? Shards are laying around, the damage you can’t hide The things you can’t take raw, you pan fry Real life, real life (it ain’t slowin’ down for anybody) Grown jaded to the words of man Empty promises and idioms will hit the fan Done with the garbage and listening to the scams Real life, real life (it ain’t slowin’ down for anybody) And I know my life ain’t perfect But I’m trying to let it show All these times that I’ve been hurting You’ve been there to hold me close Like Abednego on a bed of coals You’ve been there to hold me close And it’s true There’s no greater love than You
