VERSE 1
When my whole world revolved around you like a planet
And I would trust you with my life like you had planned it
And when I'd worship; i'd unearth it
I swear I could stay there for hours
When losing myself was the art

CHORUS 1
Now I'm just tryna get back to the heart of it
Leave behind the madness and the additives
And find that kid who sang about the stars
And danced on the dark
Like faith wasn't hard
I'm just tryna get back to the start again
That feeling that I had, you know? The innocence
And cut out all the unimportant parts
And hide in your arms
And know who you are?
I'm just tryna get back to your heart

VERSE 2
When writing songs was just my way to show affection
And they were only every made for your attention
Cause When I'd worship; I would word it
Like there's one in the audience charts
When losing myself was the art

CHORUS 2
But now I'm just Tryna get back to the heart of it
Leave behind the madness that entangles it
And keep on Tryna sing about the stars
And dance on the dark
Like faith isn't hard
I'm just Tryna get back to the start again
That feeling that I had, you know? When faith began
And How to light a fire without a spark
Find joy in the dark
Forgive when it's hard

BRIDGE
Cause if I'm honest
I'm done with almost all of it but you
All the additives, the nonsense
You're all I ever wanted
And I'll go all in
Just rid me of the parts that aren't from you
And forgive where I departed
You're all I ever wanted

CHORUS 3
Now I'm just tryna get back to the heart of it
I'm tryna get warmth back in my daily bread
and sing with the Infinity of stars inside of your arms
that know whose they are
I'm just tryna get back to the start again
But since I can't go back I might as well advance
I'll run into those everlasting arms
You didn't bring me this far
To leave me in the dark

Ending
So I'll find You on the other side of hard
Though life left its mark through [B]wrinkles and scars
I'm just tryna get back to Your heart
