Tobymac Promised Land Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Head down as I punch this clock
The hours roll, they never stop
And I can't ever seem to get ahead
Alway's tryin' to do what's right
Straight and narrow, it's gettin' tight
Don't know how much longer I can stand

[Chorus 1]
And I'm wonderin'
Yeah, I'm wonderin'
Where's my promised land?

[Verse 2]
Out here on this desert road
It's hot as fire but I've grown cold
Circlin' like a plane that never lands
And even though the questions change
The answers always stay the same
Maybe someday I will understand

[Chorus 2]
So I'm wonderin'
Got me wonderin'
Whеre's my promised land?
Yeah, I'm wondеrin'
Still, I'm wonderin'
Where's my promised land?
[Bridge]
Well, I've run this Earth for many years
If there's one thing I know There's nowhere on this side o' Heaven
Where streets are made o' gold
I've long laid tell my grand illusions
Lookin' toward the day that I'll be home

[Verse 3]
I won't give up on this race
Broken but I still have faith
That this old life is part of a plan
And I can feel it in my soul
One day, I'll stand before the throne
With nothin' left but hope and these two hands

[Chorus 3]
Through all these seasons
I'm still believin'
You're my promised land
In all my grievin'
I'm still believin'
You're my promised land

[Outro]
You're my promised land
Ooh ooh ooh-ooh, ooh ooh ooh-ooh
My promised land
Ooh ooh ooh-ooh, ooh ooh ooh-ooh
Ah ah
Ooh ooh-ooh, ooh ooh ooh-ooh
Oh oh-oh, oh oh-oh
Ooh ooh-ooh
You're my promised land
