Castles
by Coby James

Album: Mixtape - Side A

Verse 1
I've been trying to build a fortress
Trenches always leave me hopeless
Get so distracted by the nonsense
And it gets harder to be honest, Lord

Pre-Chorus
I'm so easily swayed
I need all of Your grace
So I'm gonna do what God says
When I don't wanna do what God says

Chorus
Castles in the sand always washing away
Kingdoms to the sky, but the glory all fake
If I got everything, got nothing at all
If I got You then I know I got it all
Could have the world in the palm of our hands
Chasing what we want, but we're chasing the wind
If I got everything, got nothing at all
Castles in the sand are always gonna fall

Post-Chorus
Castlеs in the sand
Castles in the, in thе sand
Castles
Castles

Verse 2
So many voices to believe in
Full of rhyme without the reason
But You're the One that gives me purpose
Just gotta dig under the surface, yeah

Pre-Chorus
House of cards will fall
When You not the ground it's built on
So I'm gonna do what God says
I'm gonna do whatever God says (God says)

Chorus
Castles in the sand always washing away
Kingdoms to the sky, but the glory all fake
If I got everything, got nothing at all
If I got You then I know I got it all
Could have the world in the palm of our hands
Chasing what we want, but we're chasing the wind
If I got everything, got nothing at all (Nothing at all)
Castles in the sand are always gonna fall

Post-Chorus
Castles in the sand
Castles in the, in the sand
Castles
Castles

Bridge
Listen
You're the rock (Ooh)
Where I stand (Ooh)
All other ground (Ooh)
Is sinking sand
You're the rock
Where I stand
All other ground
Is sinking sand

Interlude
Castles in the sand
Kingdoms to the sky
We could have it all
But be empty inside, oh

Chorus
Castles in the sand always washing away
Kingdoms to the sky, but the glory all fake
If I got everything, got nothing at all (Nothing at all)
If I got You then I know I got it all
Could have the world in the palm of our hands (Palm of our hands)
Chasing what we want, but we're chasing the wind (Ooh, ooh)
If I got everything, got nothing at all (Nothing at all)
Castles in the sand are always gonna fall

Post-Chorus
Castles in the sand (Yeah, oh)
Castles in the, in the sand (Yeah, oh)
Castles (Oh)
Castles

Outro
I just wanna do what God says
