Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
The ways of this world are grabbing a hold
Wont let me go, wont let me fly by
It takes its toll down on my soul
Cause I know what I need in my life
Dont let me lose my sight of You
Dont let me lose my sight
(Chorus)
I dont want to fall away from You
Gravity is pulling me on down
I dont want to fall away from You
Gravity is pulling me to the ground
(Verse 2)
This world keeps making me cry
But Im going to try, going to try to fly, going to fly high
Dont want to give into the sin, want to stay in You til the end
Dont want to lose my sight of You
Dont want to lose my sight
(Bridge)
I want to fly
Into the sky
Turn my back on this old world
Leave it all behind
This place is not my home
Its got nothing for me
Only leaves me emptiness
And tears in my eyes
