Being Small Lyrics

[00:10.28] Why I wanna be a hurricane
[00:13.61] When I'm barely a breeze
[00:15.94] 'Cause I've already seen Your storm
[00:18.94] Bring me down to my knees
[00:21.46] Just when we think we made it high enough
[00:23.91] You knock us back to the ground
[00:26.56] We are trying to move up fast
[00:28.50] Can't see the contrast
[00:30.03] Of how the King came down
[00:32.18] 'Cause I can't build my towers higher
[00:35.70] And live inside Your fire, no no, no no, no
[00:42.04] Whenever I climb too high
[00:45.18] Keep my feet off the ground
[00:47.71] And when I get full of me
[00:50.13] Turn me upside down
[00:52.61] You know pride and not just summer
[00:55.48] Come before the fall
[00:58.19] So if it's You that's getting bigger
[01:00.83] I don't mind being small
[01:07.56] Being small
[01:13.62] Maybe if I shout real loud
[01:15.66] Maybe then I'll draw a crowd
[01:17.24] And they'll finally cheer
[01:19.50] Or maybe I should tone down
[01:20.91] Never make a sound now
[01:22.21] Anything to draw them near
[01:24.41] Or maybe there's more to life
[01:25.88] Than trying to make a name
[01:27.49] Even though they say it ain't so
[01:29.90] So maybe I should step on down
[01:31.69] Hand off the kings crown
[01:33.16] To the God on the throne
[01:35.34] 'Cause I can't build my towers higher
[01:38.72] And live inside Your fire, no no, no no, no
[01:45.49] Whenever I climb too high
[01:48.39] Keep my feet off the ground
[01:50.77] And if I get full of me
[01:53.57] Turn me upside down
[01:56.19] You know pride and not just summer
[01:58.73] Come before the fall
[02:01.68] So if it's You that's getting bigger
[02:03.98] I don't mind being small
[02:06.81] These people won't miss me
[02:09.66] I'll be out of their memories
[02:12.49] The ground will forget me for sure
[02:17.02] Only one is remembered
[02:20.34] One name to be treasured, is Yours
[02:27.82] So now when I climb too high
[02:29.83] Keep my feet from the ground
[02:31.10] And if I get full of me
[02:32.32] Turn me upside down
[02:33.62] You know pride and not just summer
[02:35.47] Come before the fall
[02:38.41] So maybe hopefully I see less of me
[02:41.27] And more of you and its true
[02:42.84] I'll be finally free
[02:45.10] That's what I want after all
[02:49.00] Whenever I climb too high
[02:51.68] Keep my feet off the ground
[02:54.21] And if I get full of me
[02:56.99] Turn me upside down
[02:59.58] You know pride and not just summer
[03:02.12] Come before the fall
[03:04.67] So if it's You that's getting bigger
[03:07.53] I don't mind being small
[03:14.83] Being small
[03:20.30] Being small
[03:25.44] Being small
[03:35.13] Being small
[03:44.38] Being small
[03:48.20] Being small
[03:49.08]
