derek webb - in your place lyrics

Loading...

this world was never meant to hold you
it does not recognize your face
it twists and it tries to control you
in one and one there is no shade

so you speak in other tongues
march to every drum they’re beating to hide in view
but sometimes you forget
and nearly break your neck, the whiplash is k!lling you
‘cause you don’t feel safe
unless you stay in your place

when kisses are turned into weapons
you’re not safe in your own bed
thе politics of love and self+acceptancе
too many voices in your head

meanwhile some politicians
who never even met you tell you you don’t exist
even though unlike the so+called
god they say condemns you, well there’s proof of it
‘cause here you are showing up
to a life those men could not survive even a day
oh, if they were in your place

now traveling the lines of liberation
it’s hard to know how far you’ve come
how scars could be an inspiration
for everything you could become
surviving with a hope
thriving with a chosen family surrounding you
oh, you may not see it now, but
everyone who’s gone before you is living proof
oh, you can be like them
‘cause they’ve all been in your place

you’re not alone in your place
