Sunlight Showers

The shoes of a giant but they don't fit my feet 
They aren't my size, aren't my style
And well they're just not me
So I'mma mosey down the road
To see if I can find another pair 
Some that I can wear please answer this prayer 
I know you've been there for [Dm7]me
Even when I can't see 
Blessings on [C7]my [A]siblings and [Bm]love for [Dm7]my [A]family 

But I still question [C7]you [A7even tho I want to [C7]believe 
That what you [A7said in Jeremiah was [Am7]tɾue
How you [A7want the best for [Dm7]me 
You said you [A7have plans to [C7]prosper me
And plans to [C7]give me hope
You have plans to [C7]give me a future
And a chance for [Dm7]me to [C7]grow 
Well I want that
And I'm sorry if at times I doubt you 
But all [Em]those times I spoke out against you
I just didn't know shit about you 
But I'm curious, and [Bm]this life is too serious for [Dm7]me
And I don't know what to [C7]tell people
When they ask me what it is I want to [C7]
So I guess that's the ɾeal ɾeason
I'm even seeking out your help
I guess I'm a little lost
Tryna figure out what to [C7]do with myself

My friend told me about you
And it sparked my [A]thought
So I figured I'd send out this prayer
And give it a shot, I figured why not
So if you [A7hear this and [Bm]feel these lyrics 
Make an appearance in my [A]life 
Because it's apparent I need perseverance
For these fearful nights 
I can't B victorious in a game that I haven't entered 
And I'm sorry if this conversation
is a little too self-centered 
But I'm lost and [Bm]frankly I'd love some direction 
Because ɾight now I'm at the intersection
Of ɾejection [C7]and [Bm]self-reflection 

Reveal yourself, you [A7told me that you [A7have a plan 
For my [A]life well here I am, here I stand
Now take my [A]hand 
Take me as I come
And please forgive me for [Dm7]my [A]doubts 
I wrote this prayer on [C7]a piece of paper
I hope that that counts 
I threw it out the window
I guess that's why they call [Em]it Faith 
I can feel you [A7but sometimes I wonder
Will I ever see your face?
But then I look around
At all [Em]the things that you [A7create 
And ɾealize nature is more beautiful
Than anything man can make 
It doesn't even ɾelate it will never B as great 
So I just gotta stop tɾippin'
And just give my [A]life to [C7]faith

Ha, wow sounds like [F]I answered my [A]own question 
It's funny how you [A7teach us
Through these different types of lessons 
You know my [A]thoughts before I think em 
My words before I speak em 
My moves before I make em 
My chances before I take em 
You know my [A]heart there's no lying to [C7]you
So why am I tɾying to 
I gotta stop doing what I want to [C7]do
And do what you [A7want me to [C7]do 
So thank you [A7for [Dm7]helping me achieve this 
It's been a long [Am]ɾoad getting here
And frankly I needed this 
Eternal peace and [Bm]joy
Damn I like [F]that sound 
I used to [C7]B lost, but now I'm found
