Your cheering squads were liars when to my knees you could not bring
So in the might of jealousy, you tried to clip my wings
But my joints are made of teflon and the feathers forged in steel
So when that didn’t work, you worked my mind hoping I’d kneel
You told me I couldn’t do it; you had doubts right from the start
And for years I’ve suffered bruising from the falseness of your heart
When I changed my church, changed my goals, my hopes and dreams
I never thought me taking flight was enough to make you leave
I thought we’d still be “besties,” one solid in faith and true
But I have ghosts around that are more loyal to me than you
It must be for the best as what you’ll never know
Was that months ago, God already said it was time to let you go
And I didn’t want to believe it, surely that was “enemy” talk
But for weeks on end, the voice came again with no intention to stop.
So I yielded to my God and gave us over into His hand
With how everything unfolded, I know this was the better plan
I’m fond of what we had though I may not know the reason
Why letting go was best for us, but everything has its season
I truly wish you all the best, in life and happiness
And maybe through the test of time, we’ll figure out the mess
But even if not, you’re no longer a loss, I’ll truly be ok
Both of us will move on and continue in our ways
Knowing what I now know, it was clear this was a sign
That it’s hard to befriend the clouds if you don’t leave the earth behind.
