Analysis of Fly Away
Aleemah King 1978 (Phoenix)
Sometimes I just want to fly away.
"I get it", they say, "You're just having a bad day".
Prayer and trusting in God is the new cure. But what about those days when you're not feeling so pure?
What about those days when you're strength Just isn't there? What about the day you can't pray for yourself And you Are Standing in The Need Of Prayer.
What do you do when God says it will be OK. But you're still having a bad day and it's hard to pray.
And your family and friends tell you to look up. What about when you're trying to do all of The Above and all the beauty around doesn't cheer you up?
What about the words that are left and Unsaid? What about the prayers you pray that feel unheartful and dead.
Is God even listening on those days too? Does he hear your prayers when you don't even believe in you?
What about your Faith when it's feeling low? A mustard seed left me with so much further to Grow.
I just wanna lay down And rest hoping to return to my Best.
But feeling depressed is a stresser On days when you feel lesser and lesser.
You know God and you Know that what He says will come to pass. Those hard nights can come. But Joy Comes In The Morning.
I just wanna fly away; fly away. Somebody Please help me cause today I don't even want to pray.
