Hands Down

Well, I guess I could have picked an easier path for my life
But what’s the fun in that?
Instead, I listened to my deepest heart’s desire
And I felt so alive when I opened my eyes

All I’m saying (hands down)
You could take away all that I’ve got (hands down)
You could give it all away (hands down)
But it won’t change a thing (hands down)

Cuz this is all I need (hands down)
This is all I can be (hands down)
And I don’t ask for more (hands down)
This is the life for me (hands down)

As much as you can’t stop the wind from blowing around
As much as you can’t stop the Sun from shining down
I’ve come to see that this is all I am, all I am
This is all I need, what I was meant to be

All I’m saying (hands down)
You could take away all that I’ve got (hands down)
You could give it all away (hands down)
But it won’t change a thing (hands down)

Cuz this is all I need (hands down)
This is all I can be (hands down)
And I don’t ask for more (hands down)
This is the life for me (hands down)

This is my town, this is my place
Where I go to church and sing, where I feel it begin
This is my home, this is my heart
This is my soul, my life
Until the day I die

So I ask you, what’s the point of being someone, someone you’re not
To cling to what you’ve got?
When it’s not giving, giving you what you need?
When it doesn’t make your heart sing and lift up

All I’m saying (hands down)
You could take away all that I’ve got (hands down)
You could give it all away (hands down)
But it won’t change a thing (hands down)

Cuz this is all I need (hands down)
This is all I can be (hands down)
And I don’t ask for more (hands down)
This is the life for me (hands down)
Oh, for me (hands down)

This is all I’ll ever be, hands down (hands down)
All that I need, this is the life for me (hands down)

(Hands down)
(Hands down)
This is the life for me (hands down)
(Hands down)
