Next Plateau

You struggle, you strive
You try to stay alive
And only God knows how you survive
It ain't easy, livin' in the rat trap
Tryna keep your minds off of things that
Hold you down, turn your head around
Make you feel like givin' it up
What's it all for?
Life means more
But the more you get, the more you need
'Cause the more you sow, the more you reap
Tears don't dry, as time goes by
The road gets longer
Need for peace gets stronger
What does that mean for you?
It might mean tryna build something new
Or fix something old
Do what you're told
I don't know, but what I know is
Everybody wants to reach that plateau
Love is mine, I find happiness

Everybody wants to reach the plateau
And only God knows the way you have to go
Everybody wants to reach the plateau
And only God knows the way you have to go
Everybody wants to reach the plateau
And only God knows the way you have to go
Everybody wants to reach the plateau
And only God knows the way you have to go
Everybody wants to reach the plateau
And only God knows the way you have to go
Everybody wants to reach the plateau
And only God knows the way you have to go

We walk together
As winds try to blow us off the path
Pain looks different but the pain always lasts
Sometimes I fall down, can't hold on
Sometimes I wish I wasn't even born
But I am, so I get on my feet
One little step is all that I see
My eyes might feel like my nose
But I know
One day, I'm gonna reach the plateau
One day, someway, somehow
I'll find out what life is all about
You're not alone, life goes on
Come on, get up, it's time to move on
Sometimes everything falls apart in your hands
Like little grains of sand
Life's unfair, but I don't care

Everybody wants to reach the plateau
And only God knows the way you have to go
Everybody wants to reach the plateau
And only God knows the way you have to go
Everybody wants to reach the plateau
And only God knows the way you have to go
Everybody wants to reach the plateau
And only God knows the way you have to go
Everybody wants to reach the plateau
And only God knows the way you have to go
Everybody wants to reach the plateau
And only God knows the way you have to go
Everybody wants to reach the plateau
And only God knows the way you have to go
Everybody wants to reach the plateau
And only God knows the way you have to go
Everybody wants to reach the plateau
And only God knows the way you have to go
Everybody wants to reach the plateau
And only God knows the way you have to go
Everybody wants to reach the plateau
And only God knows the way you have to go
Everybody wants to reach the plateau
And only God knows the way you have to go

And only God knows
And only God knows
Only God knows
