Defying Gravity
John Elefante
Once I was woken from a daydream
Where I had the ability to fly
Far above the earth among the heavens
It felt so peaceful being way up high
And I remember waking up disappointed
That I was still on the ground
Because in order to rise above this world
I have to lay my life down
(chorus)
And when I kneel before You
I'm defying gravity
And when I let You take control
Then I'm defying gravity
And when I stop giving in to the pull of this world
Then I'm defying gravity
And when I'm bruised and I'm torn, I let You pull me up
Then I'm defying gravity
Why do the cares of the world way so heavy
I get pulled in so many directions
I try to look for the easy way out
But the only way's through Your resurrection
So I will lay my life down at Your feet
(chorus)
