Lyrics Turbulence - Cole DeRuse, J. Paul

Turbulence

You know there are times in life when/
You come across people that you think are your friends/
But really, they’re your friend because it’s convenient/
And you have something that they want/
It’s sad man… but the best thing I’ve learned you can do/
In that situation, is try to forgive them/
Pack your bags and just move on/
Yeah, our hearts were nearly broken, by the people that we trusted most when
They took us in, became our friends, then forgot us in the middle of the ocean
All alone and stranded, on a boat abandoned, and I’m still
Tryin' to, figure out what the heck just happened, I don’t really have an
answer granted
We were open handed, full of hopeful standards, but that was a weakness
Let our guards down for a season, but I’ll never do it again cause that damage
Was too great, it’s too late, this new day, is two-faced/
It made us panic, throw away everything that we built up and vanish
We had to get away get safe, get our own place with a bit of breathing space
And even though we escaped, there’s still a bunch of wounds underneath this
bandage
We left feelin' disenchanted but then this plane landed with God commandin'
So we say goodbye layin' eyes on this new chapter with a brand new canvas
Things were rocky, I was afraid to crash and die
I’ve been up and down, and swayed from side to side
Send out a mayday, cuz we’re fallin' out the sky
If there’s any chance can you save me from the fire?
Here comes the turbulence
The sky was gray and formin', a little bit of what I call stormin'
Early mornin' pourin' down, so morbid now this rain is horrid
Plus I’m foreign, to the way things, should be handled when things change
But they did now I’m livin' with it just prayin' we maintain orbit cuz I’m
10,000 feet up, way up high, feelin' pretty beat up, enough
Time to clean up these deep cuts fighting the lie that you don’t really needs us
Because we lust and bleed just like everyone alive are you also gonna leave us?
Flee us, out of disgust like refugees but I really wanted you to lead us
Turbulence can be violent, when you travel through an unknown climate
I should trust you, but I’m unglued not really knowin' what you’re up to flyin'
Over highlands, over islands, what’s the mileage?
I can’t even see the ground
So I close my eye-lids, growin' silent, hopin' I live, oh my God I need you now
Things were rocky, I was afraid to crash and die
I’ve been up and down, and swayed from side to side
Send out a mayday, cuz we’re fallin' out the sky
If there’s any chance can you save me from the fire?
Here comes the turbulence
Stepped off the plane I’m anxious, wife and daughter beside me
This leap of faith I’m takin', trustin' God’s right behind me
You’re the only way that' we’ll ever make it, our one chance of surviving
If I get lost on the waters while I’m on earth, I know that you are gonna guide
me
Stepped off the plane I’m prayin', wife and daughter beside me
This leap of faith I’m takin', trustin' God’s right behind me/
You’re the only way that' we’ll ever make it, our one chance of surviving
If I get lost on the waters while I’m on earth, I know that you are gonna guide
me
Things were rocky, I was afraid to crash and die
I’ve been up and down, and swayed from side to side
Send out a mayday, cuz we’re fallin' out the sky
If there’s any chance can you save me from the fire?
Here comes the turbulence
