Sarantos - Who Am I To Fight The Universe Lyrics

Who Am I To Fight The Universe?

Verse 1

My momma was a hard working girl
Said an image can create a new world
Being is part of breathing
And believing is always a part of dreaming

Verse 2

I've wasted so much of my life drowning
Used up so many of my days climbing, climbing
Spent most of my nights, crying
So tired of always trying, trying

Chorus 1

Who am I to fight the universe?

Who am I to curse the universe?

The silly stars stare back at me
If God allows this mess to be
Then maybe I should just accept my destiny

Verse 3

Fresh ink on the newspaper
Yet I don't feel any safer
Home still smells the same
And I'm still stuck in a house of pain, so much pain

Verse 4

Momma said I was meant for something greater
So why am I denied my nature, my nature
How could she be, so wrong?
I don't feel like I belong, I don't belong

Chorus 2

Who am I to fight the universe?

Who am I to curse the universe?

The silly stars stare back at me
If God allows this mess to be
Then maybe I should just accept my destiny

Bridge

My entire life I believed in, in God & love
Played the game the right way
Does fate even really exist at all?
Was I ever really in, in control?

Chorus 3

Who am I to fight the universe?

Who am I to curse the universe?

The silly stars stare back at me
If God allows this mess to be
Then maybe I should just accept my destiny

End

Why do I fight?
Why did Icarus challenge the sun?
Why was Oedipus blinded by the moon?
What's done is done

I'm done
Done
Fighting
The Universe
