| I’m through with sand in my eyes because of weather and wind
|
| Seemed like a tropic paradise -- I remember movin' in
|
| This life hasn’t turned out quite the way I thought it would be
|
| (Tell me what you want)
|
| I want a brand new house -- one that’s never gonna drift
|
| Or collapse whenever the rains fall in
|
| And I think time’s come to give up this sandbox dream
|
| (Yeah, so what you need)
|
| I need to get it started -- I’ll begin it
|
| With a big flat layer of bedrock in it
|
| Gonna fortify my house like Matthew 7 counsels me
|
| (Built better, done right)
|
| I’ve got a new toolbox called the Word of God
|
| And I’ll start on top of the Solid Rock
|
| Cause it’s Extreme Human Makeover time for me
|
| (So how you gonna do it)
|
| I’m gonna change this life before it’s in flames
|
| I’ll even call Ty here to trade my space
|
| Cause we all just gotta get a big rocky start
|
| So we can build our house without a shifting yard
|
| It don’t come easy, but it’s dug down deep
|
| The walls stay standing and the steps won’t creak
|
| And we’ll hang tough in the cruelest storms
|
| When you see high winds on the news reports
|
| Every good homebuilder doesn’t wind up scared
|
| Cause it’s way more sturdy than the beach down there
|
| And, hey, hey, I’m gonna need a rocky start
|
| Hey, hey, I’m gonna need a rocky start
|
| I wanna build a great, white palace with stuff that lasts
|
| So I can make a Taj Mahal and not a big sandcastle
|
| Not with stubble, wood, or grass just like in First Corinthians 3
|
| (I'll have a casa de Dios, uh huh)
|
| I’m gonna bless my house with the greatest plans
|
| He said in John 14: 2 there’s plenty more mansions
|
| Decorate with silver, gold, and precious stones provided for me
|
| (So how you gonna do it?)
|
| I’m gonna change change this life before it’s in flames
|
| I’ll even call Ty here to trade my space
|
| Cause we all just gotta get a big rocky start
|
| So we can build our house without a shifting yard
|
| It don’t come easy, but it’s dug down deep
|
| The walls stay standing and the steps won’t creak
|
| And we’ll hang tough in the cruelest storms
|
| When you see high winds on the news reports
|
| Every good homebuilder doesn’t wind up scared
|
| Cause it’s way more sturdy than the beach down there
|
| And, hey, hey, I’m gonna need a rocky start
|
| Hey, hey, I’m gonna need a rocky start
|
| And we’ll wipe out all the private rooms
|
| Where we had addictions buried in their painted tombs
|
| I guess you never think this but in a while
|
| Everybody’s gettin' dug deeper once we’ve died
|
| Well, hey, hey, I’m gonna need a rocky start
|
| I’m gonna seize that stone that the builders rejected
|
| Gonna pass all codes when it gets inspected
|
| Let washed-up sinners try to mock my song
|
| They’re sinkin' in the mire because they built it wrong
|
| Cause we all just gotta get a big rocky start
|
| So we can build our house without a shifting yard
|
| It don’t come easy, but it’s dug down deep
|
| The walls stay standing and the steps won’t creak
|
| And we’ll hang tough in the cruelest storms
|
| When you see high winds on the news reports
|
| Every good homebuilder doesn’t wind up scared
|
| Cause it’s way more sturdy than the beach down there
|
| And, hey, hey, I’m gonna need a rocky start
|
| Hey, hey, I’m gonna need a rocky start
|
| And we’ll wipe out all the private rooms
|
| Where we had addictions buried in their painted tombs
|
| I guess you never think this but in a while
|
| Everybody’s gettin' dug deeper once we’ve died
|
| Well, hey, hey, I’m gonna need a rocky start |
