Lyrics

Crawling between heaven & earth,
I wonder what I'm really worth:
I'm just a man, selfish & proud,
Sometimes I'm brutal, mean & loud,
Sometimes I'm false or act the fool
Or my ambition turns me cruel.

But I can be more,
I can see more,
I can care more,
I can hear more,
I can be more,
I can see more,
I can care more,
I can be more.

Between the man who I am & I want to be ------
(I could be so much more,
I could be so much more.)
There is a seed that was planted that's driving me ------
(I could be so much more,
I could be so much more.)

There is something more to this
Than to barely just exist,
So much more . . .

Sometimes I've done things in despair
& later thanked God that no one else was there,
Sometimes my heart's been filled with rage
& vengeance jumped inside my veins,
& I've been scared to choose what's right
Because it meant being impolite.

But I can be more,
I can see more,
I can care more,
I can hear more,
I can be more,
I can see more,
I can care more,
I can be more.

Between the man who I am & I want to be ------
(I could be so much more,
I could be so much more.)
There is a seed that was planted that's driving me ------
(I could be so much more,
I could be so much more.)

There is something more to this
Than to barely just exist,
So much more . . .

There is Someone trying to speak,
In the moments that we're weak.
There's a Voice that's still & meek,
Showing us the thing we seek.

Between the man who I am & I want to be ------
(I could be so much more,
I could be so much more.)
There is a seed that was planted that's driving me ------
(I could be so much more,
I could be so much more.)

There is something more to this
Than to barely just exist,
So much more . . .
