(Verse1) I been diggin out of a hole so long Calloused hands, bent knees, singin low They warned me soft about molehills I kept diggin till I lost the sky I been diggin out of a hole so long long Started stackin dirt into mountains They said don’t make more than you need I said I can’t even see the clouds now Shovel talkin louder than prayer Sun slipped off somewhere behind me Diggin so long I forgot the reason Lost the when and lost the why Static where the memories were A buzz instead of truth Then a quiet question cut me clean And split the dark in two (Chorus) When did I stop seein’ shapes in the clouds Promises driftin’ free I was just in time to lift my eyes And the sky remembered me They said I couldn’t, said I wouldn’t But I did it—and I won Did it so good the night let go And they danced in the sun They danced in the sun. Danced in the sun. They danced in the sun. (Verse 2) It was Easier always fightin’ Harder just to stand I chased the light before it rose Never held it in my hand Lost it once before the morning Before I knew its name Turns out faith ain’t holdin’ answers It’s walkin’ through the pain I thought strength was never bendin’ Never breakin’, never slow But the roots that split the hardest rock Are the ones you never see grow Every scar became a marker Every tear a turning sign I wasn’t buried, I was planted Just waitin’ on the time Waitin on the time.. On the time. On the time.. Ooooooooooooh (Chorus) I see shapes in the clouds again Drawin’ maps, I understand I didn’t climb out just to breathe I climbed to take my stand They said I couldn’t, said I wouldn’t But I did it—and I won Now the dark don’t recognize me I belong to the sun Danced in the sun.. danced in the sun He belonged to the sun… danced in the sun. It was lost before morning found me Never held it long enough to know Some dreams only teach you direction Some roads just teach you when to go (Chorus) I see shapes in the clouds again Every promise comin’ true I didn’t dig my way out alone I was bein’ led straight through They said I couldn’t, said I wouldn’t But I did it—and I won Now every mountain tells the truth I was made for the sun For the sun. . .for the sun.... Made for the sun. For the sun.. Oooh Now I dig a little less each day Let the mountains settle down I lay back watch the clouds drift by Grateful just to see the sky
