Speak Life by TobyMac Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Some days, life feels perfect
Other days it just ain't workin'
The good, the bad, the right, the wrong
And everything in between
[Pre-Chorus]
Yo, it's crazy, amazing
We can turn a heart through the words we say
Mountains crumble with every syllable
Hope can live or die
[Chorus]
So speak Life, speak life
To the deadest darkest night
Speak life, speak life
When the sun won't shine and you don't know why
Look into the eyes of the brokenhearted
Watch them come alive as soon as you speak hope
You speak love, you speak...
[Post-Chorus]
You speak life, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
You speak life, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Verse 2]
Some days the tongue gets twisted
Other days my thoughts just fall apart
I do, I don't, I will, I won't
It's like I'm drowning in the deep
[Pre-Chorus]
Yo, it's crazy to imagine
Words from our lips as the arms of compassion
Mountains crumble with every syllable
Hope can live or die
[Chorus]
So speak Life, speak life
To the deadest darkest night
Speak life, speak life
When the sun won't shine and you don't know why
Look into the eyes of the brokenhearted
Watch them come alive as soon as you speak hope
You speak love, you speak...
[Post-Chorus]
You speak life, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
You speak life, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Bridge]
Lift your head a little higher
Spread the love like fire
Hope will fall like rain
When you speak life with the words you say
Raise your thoughts a little higher
Use your words to inspire
Joy will fall like rain
When you speak life with the things you say
Lift your head a little higher
Spread the love like fire
Hope will fall like rain
When you speak life with the words you say
(With the words you say, with the words you say)
[Chorus]
So speak Life, speak life
To the deadest darkest night
Speak life, speak life
When the sun won't shine and you don't know why
Look into the eyes of the brokenhearted
Watch them come alive as soon as you speak hope
You speak love, you speak...
[Post-Chorus]
You speak life, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
You speak life, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
You speak life, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
You speak life, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Outro]
Some days life feels perfect
Some days, life feels perfect

The good, the bad, the right, the wrong
And everything in between

Yo, it's crazy, amazing
We can turn a heart through the words we say
Mountains crumble with every syllable
Hope can live or die
[Chorus]
So speak Life, speak life
To the deadest darkest night
Speak life, speak life
When the sun won't shine and you don't know why
Look into the eyes of the brokenhearted
Watch them come alive as soon as you speak hope
You speak love, you speak...
[Post-Chorus]
You speak life, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
You speak life, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Verse 2]
Some days the tongue gets twisted
Other days my thoughts just fall apart
I do, I don't, I will, I won't
It's like I'm drowning in the deep

So speak Life, speak life

Look into the eyes of the brokenhearted
Watch them come alive as soon as you speak hope
You speak love, you speak...
[Post-Chorus]
You speak life, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
You speak life, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Bridge]

When you speak life with the words you say
Raise your thoughts a little higher
Use your words to inspire
Joy will fall like rain
When you speak life with the things you say
Lift your head a little higher
Spread the love like fire
Hope will fall like rain
When you speak life with the words you say
(With the words you say, with the words you say)
[Chorus]
So speak Life, speak life
To the deadest darkest night
Speak life, speak life
When the sun won't shine and you don't know why
Look into the eyes of the brokenhearted
Watch them come alive as soon as you speak hope
You speak love, you speak...
[Post-Chorus]
You speak life, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
You speak life, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
You speak life, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
You speak life, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Outro]
