Tell me that I’m fre, tell me that it’s over and tomorrow I’m gonna see
Nothing that I’ve seen before every night and day I’ll see the rainbow and know where it leads
So long, I’ve got to say goodbye
It feels like happiness, it has been taken to the test
And made me sober enough to let it rest
And now I can dream with nothing to expect
And nothing to lose, and nothing to fight
And I don’t wonder why because it’s time for the payment
I'm somewhere in the sky and I fly like I'm weightless
Yea I was missing I was tripping I was slipping so bad now it’s time for the payment
It hit me like a weight took me like an undertow that was so strong
And I couldn’t breathe
And now I'm not the same
I'm not what I thought I was, but its ok, because ive been released.
Right now I float like a feather in the air
I know you you can’t see me, but you know that I’m everywhere
I know what your faith was before they put you to the test, so long ago
But now theres nothing to confess and nothing to lose, and nothing to fight
And I dont wonder why because it’s time for the payment
I’m somewhere in the sky with a smile on my face and I don’t wonder why
Because I fly like I’m weightless
Yea I was missing I was slipping I was tripping so bad but I finally made the payment
Yea its a struggle its a struggle everybody’s got their trouble but we gotta make the payment
