[Intro] Walk that road? I weigh my steps [Verse 1] Blessed feet, planted deep in the right dirt Not posted in the circle where the mockers lurk first Not taking the seat where the rotten grin and rehearse I learned the hard turn, I learned the clean verse He reads the law like breath in his chest Day and night, same spark, same test Like roots in a riverbank, hidden but fed Leaf stays green where the winter would thread (steady now) I don't drift where the noise wants to tug me I don't trade my name for a little bit of muddy My ears stay locked on the Word that's above me My hands stay open, my heart stays hungry [Pre-Chorus] Two roads, two loads One grows, one folds Tell me, where does your soul go? Tell me, where does your soul go? [Chorus] Blessed like a tree by streams Rooted, rooted Blessed like a tree by streams Fruit in due season The wicked blow away Like chaff, like chaff Blessed like a tree by streams I want that path [Verse 2] Not so, not so for the one who shrugs at the fire Dry husk in the wind, vanishing higher No spine in the storm, no weight in the choir Just ash on the edge of a quick desire The Lord knows the road of the righteous one Knows every scar, every sleepless run Knows the breath in the lungs when the night comes undone Knows the seed still sealed till the rain has begun (scratches cut) Who you walking with? Who you listening to? What do your hands repeat? What do your eyes run to? I keep the law where my pulse can hear it Keep the Word near, keep the fear near it When the bad fruit falls, I don't cheer it I plant my life where the Living comes clear [Bridge] There is a way that looks wide But it empties out There is a way that looks hard But it carries out I won't sit with the fade-out crowd I won't trade roots for a paper crown Judge me by fruit when the summer comes down Judge me by fruit when the summer comes down [Chorus] Blessed like a tree by streams Rooted, rooted Blessed like a tree by streams Fruit in due season The wicked blow away Like chaff, like chaff Blessed like a tree by streams I want that path [Outro] Walk that road I weigh my steps Rootside water I stay fed
