Yeah, yes, oh

Why I wanna be a hurricane

When I'm barely a breeze

Cuz I've already seen Your storm

Bring me down to my knees

Just when we think we may be high enough

You knock us back to the ground

We are trying to move up fast

Can't see the contrast

Of how the King came down

Cuz I can't build my towers higher

And live inside Your fire, no no no

Whenever I climb too high

Keep my feet on the ground

And when I get full of me turn me upside down

You know pride and not just summer

Come before the fall

So if You that's getting bigger

I don't mind being small

Being small

Maybe if I shout real loud

Maybe then I'll draw a crowd

And they'll finally cheer

Or maybe I should tone down

Never make a sound now

Anything to draw them near

Or maybe there's more to life

Than trying to make a name

Even though they say it ain't so

So maybe I should step on down

Hand off the kings crown

To the God on the throne

Cuz I can't build my towers higher

And live inside Your fire, no no no

Whenever I climb too high

Keep my feet on the ground

And if I get full of me turn me upside down

You know pride and not just summer

Come before the fall

So if You that's getting bigger

I don't mind being small

These people won't miss me

I will be out of their memories

The ground will forget me for sure

Only one is remembered

One name to be treasured

Is Yours

So now when I climb too high

Keep my feet on the ground

And if I get full of me turn me upside down

You know pride and not just summer

Come before the fall

Ooo

So maybe hopefully I see less of me

And more of you and its true

I'll be finally free

That's what I want after all

Yeah

Whenever I climb too high

Keep my feet on the ground

And if I get full of me turn me upside down

You know pride and not just summer

Come before the fall

So if You that's getting bigger

I don't mind being small

Being small

Being small

Being small, oh oh oh

Yeah

Being small, oh oh oh oh

Being small
