Ridin Waves [SSC8, USA]

[Verse 1] Queen of Hearts tornado inside my mind Off with their heads Rip out their hearts The stress is unbearable I’m not who I was Mother Theresa calms the storm Down on my knees Asking God to bring me peace I am myself again Whoever that is [Pre-Chorus] Riding highs, surviving undertow Turning pain into purpose Helping others make it home [Verse 2] Lost myself that day Doctor looked me in the eyes and said “I know the problem — you have a T… B… I…” Used to juggle worlds with ease Now I play hide and seek every day Salad in the freezer Ice cream in the pantry Words get lost from mind to mouth Playing hide and seek — with teaching Who is this inside of me? [Chorus] Waters rising all around Found my balance on God’s surfboard Learned to ride what I can’t control Surfin’ T! B! I! Inconsistent… unpredictable… Riding highs, surviving undertow Turning pain into purpose Helping others make it home [Key Change – Up a Whole Step] [Verse 3] Yet life goes on Music still plays Pathways heal I’m writing again Music lets me teach again [Chorus] Surfin’ T! B! I! Truth — inconsistent… unpredictable… Riding highs, surviving undertow Turning pain into purpose Helping others make it home [Key Change – Bright Lift] [Bridge] To hang ten you learn to Never give up Respect your limits Still believe I know I am not alone To shoot the tube Need the board of truth and trust [Final Chorus] Waters rising all around Found my balance on Y’shua’s surfboard Learned to ride what I can’t control Surfin’ T! B! I! Riding highs, surviving undertow Turning pain into purpose Helping others make it home [Outro] Inconsistent… unpredictable… _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Wipeouts happen — ride again.
