Give me the strength 
To carry through 
Give me the breath 
To do what I got to do 
Give me the strength 
To carry through 
Give me the breath 
To do what I got to do 
I understand that the world is bigger 
Than I ever thought possible 
I recognize my action knock on you 
Even if I've never met you 
I don't have to see you to know you exist 
I don't have to meet you to feel your suffering 
Want to make a difference don't know where to start 
Well it ain't in oblivion 
You're not at the bottom 
You're not at the top 
You're just part of something bigger than all of us 
Collectively we choose, what 
Give me the strength 
To carry through 
Give me the breath 
To do what I got to do 
Give me the strength 
To carry through 
Give me the breath 
To do what I got to do 
There comes a time when all the lights are on 
When the time is right to start things off 
That's time that you're got to get along 
Bare down, bare down 
There are times that I can't quite explain 
Why it works and why it can't be the same 
How it's going to be, the future's not clear to me 
And we're stuck in this like everybody else 
Trying to find away that doesn't step on toes 
I'm happy to get along minding my own 
Head down, head down 
Give me the strength 
To carry through 
Give me the breath 
To do what I got to do 
Give me the strength 
To carry through 
Give me the breath 
To do what I got to do 
Oh give me the strength 
To carry through 
Give me the breath 
To do what I got to do 
Oh give me the strength 
To carry through 
Give me the breath 
To do what I got to do
