[Verse 1] The forecast said the river would rise I cursed the clouds, I blamed the tide Then found the sandbags by the gate And called my brother before it got late [Pre-Chorus] I can’t steer the weather Can’t rewind the rain But there’s a wheel beneath my hand And I can turn it again [Chorus] I’ve got a hand on the handle A foot on the floor I can’t move every mountain But I can move this door Hey! What I can change, I change Hey! What I can’t, I let roll by One small lever, one clear choice And I’m building my life [Verse 2] The old job closed; the rent stayed due I spent one week saying, “What can I do?” Then fixed the bike, learned the route Sent three brave letters, got one call back through [Pre-Chorus] I can’t pick the whole deck Can’t command the draw But I can play the card I’m holding And deal myself one more [Chorus] I’ve got a hand on the handle A foot on the floor I can’t move every mountain But I can move this door Hey! What I can change, I change Hey! What I can’t, I let roll by One small lever, one clear choice And I’m building my life [Breakdown] Not the storm! Not the past! Not the words that were thrown! Just the next right move With the hands I own! [Bridge] You don’t need a perfect map Or a clean and certain start Just a pocket full of stubbornness And a little room to try When the world won’t answer back You can still decide your part Turn the handle, plant the seed Give tomorrow somewhere to rise [Final Chorus] I’ve got a hand on the handle A foot on the floor I can’t move every mountain But I can move this door Hey! What I can change, I change Hey! What I can’t, I let roll by One small lever, one clear choice And I’m building my life [Outro] One small lever! One clear choice! I’m building my life!
