Uromi - Settle Down Lyrics

Would you settle down
Grab a seat and stick around
Just relax enjoy the sounds
I don't want to have to shout, so settle down
Please settle down, let me tell my story now
After you can ask me how I settle down, when the world is loud is loud is loud
There was a time I had zero idea of what my voice sounded like
The real one, trapped on the inside
I was so worried about what others might find if I decided to let my mind outside
And let my words shine bright
On a page
On a screen
On a stage
Literally on any spotlight
And now I'm standing with with the mic in my hand
Looking out at a crowd
Screaming I don't understand while mummy looks at me proud
She tells me carry on, but I don't know what I am even standing on
This isn't fun
I am not the one to carry out this duty
She said it's not for me to speak but God to speak through me
I used to be so depressed, I was so upset
I was so obsessed with my own ideas of real success
I had to learn to listen more so I learned to speak less
Now I can can hear His voice clear when he says take a step.
Would you settle down
Grab a seat and stick around
Just relax enjoy the sounds
I don't want to have to shout, so settle down
Please settle down, let me tell my story now
After you can ask me how I settle down, when the world is loud is loud is loud
I look back on my life, and for most of that time I felt like I didn't deserve it
How can good things be for bad persons
If I didn't work for it how could I earn it
Self sabotage ensued, I didn't like the rules
I didn't like the feeling of the grace I owed it to
Now I tell this tale to you so that you could tell it too
You can do what you been called to with the proper attitude
And it's not about false hope or laws of attraction
I believe in reality greater than all distractions
I believe in faith, hope, love and direct action
I know life is not just about my satisfaction
So I resolve to walk in truth, I resolve to walk in grace
I resolve to never hide, I will occupy my space
I will seek, I will find, I'll be led to operate
I will trust in the Lord and he'll make my path straight.
Would you settle down
Grab a seat and stick around
Just relax enjoy the sounds
I don't want to have to shout, so settle down
Please settle down, let me tell my story now
After you can ask me how I settle down, when the world is loud is loud is loud
