Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
The ways of this world are grabbing a hold
Won�t let me go, won�t let me fly by
It takes it�s toll down on my soul
�Cause I know what I need in my life
Don�t let me lose my sight of You
Don�t let me lose my sight

(Chorus)
I don�t want to fall away from You
Gravity is pulling me on down
I don�t want to fall away from You
Gravity is pulling me to the ground

(Verse 2)
This world keeps making me cry
But I�m going to try, going to try to fly, going to fly high
Don�t want to give into the sin, want to stay in You �til the end
Don�t want to lose my sight of You
Don�t want to lose my sight

(Bridge)
I want to fly
Into the sky
Turn my back on this old world
Leave it all behind
This place is not my home
It�s got nothing for me
Only leaves me emptiness
And tears in my eyes
