Seen by Heaven

[Verse] I used to shake when eyes were near, I built my cage from borrowed fear. I heard the noise, I wore the weight, I called it wisdom, called it fate. I thought the room was watching me, Like every flaw was plain to see. But minds are busy with their own, And most of us just walk alone. [Chorus] Why should I bend for passing eyes, When dust forgets and daylight dies? I will not trade my soul for praise, Or lose my heart in crowded haze. You know my name when shadows nod, I do not need the world, just God. Just God, just God, just God. [Verse] The fear was louder in my head, Than any word they ever said. I wrote up storms that never came, And fed my doubt with smoke and shame. But truth came in a steady flame, No human voice could make or name. If they should laugh and turn away, Their echo will not rule my day. [Chorus] Why should I bend for passing eyes, When dust forgets and daylight dies? I will not trade my soul for praise, Or lose my heart in crowded haze. You know my name when shadows nod, I do not need the world, just God. Just God, just God, just God. [Bridge] Let people talk, let people stare, The wind will take it anywhere. A thousand thoughts can rise and fall, But heaven’s voice outlives them all. If I am judged for being true, Then let them speak, I will break through. The life I want stands past my fear, And faith keeps calling, come on, come near. [Chorus] Why should I bend for passing eyes, When dust forgets and daylight dies? I will not trade my soul for praise, Or lose my heart in crowded haze. You know my name when shadows nod, I do not need the world, just God. Just God, just God, just God. [Outro] When all applause is gone and odd, I still am held, I still have God. The world may turn, the years may trod, But I am known, and known by God.
