PULL THE WEEDS [Verse 1] I used to think that peace would come When everything went right, When trouble stopped knocking at my door And worry left my sight. But life was never promised Without a little rain, And every garden worth growing Needs tending just the same. [Pre-Chorus] You can curse the ground beneath you, Or decide what you will grow. Some things you can’t control— But you can choose what stays and goes. [Chorus] Pull the weeds, grow the garden, Don’t lose sleep on what might come. Use some wisdom, build your fences, Then get back to what you love. There’s a line we all must draw Between being wise and living scared. You can’t make this life risk-free— So pull the weeds and leave ’em there. [Verse 2] Lock the door and check the gate, Pay attention, know the signs, Wisdom doesn’t mean you’re fearful, It just means you draw your lines. But you’ll never build a fortress That keeps every problem gone, And if all you do is watch for weeds, You’ll forget what you planted on. [Chorus] Pull the weeds, grow the garden, Don’t lose sleep on what might come. Use some wisdom, build your fences, Then get back to what you love. There’s a line we all must draw Between being wise and living scared. You can’t make this life risk-free— So pull the weeds and leave ’em there. [Bridge] The gardener doesn’t stay up all night Wondering what tomorrow brings. Morning comes, he walks outside, Pulls what doesn’t belong— And tends the living things. [Final Chorus] Pull the weeds, grow the garden, Let tomorrow bring its own. Take precautions, use discernment, But don’t fear what isn’t known. Draw your line and make your choices, Give your energy where you care. Life will always have some weeds— Just don’t forget the garden’s there. [Outro] Pull the weeds. Grow what matters. That’s just life— And life is good.
