The Slacker

Wonderfully Made
Words and Music by Paulo K Tiról
Sung by Joseph Legaspi

I've seen ev'ry tear that you've cried.
The fears and the failures you struggle to hide.
The worthiness doubted beneath all that pride.
The visions and dreams left behind.

I know your remorse and regret.
The secrets and stories you ache to forget.
So many people you'd die to be yet

I choose you, I choose you.
Do you know why I choose you?
I choose you.

If only you could see yourself the way that I do,
And know yourself the way I know you
Then you'd love yourself
As somebody who is wonderfully made.
Wonderfully made are you.

When you were first formed I was there
I've counted each step and each strand of your hair
How precious you are and yet so unaware 
That no treasure could ever compare

With all of your bruises and stains
I call you beloved that never will change
The mountains may crumble but this will remain:

I choose you, I choose you.
Do you know why I choose you?
I choose you.

Forever and ever I choose you.
Just as you are, I choose you.
Again and again, I choose you.

Wonderfully made,
Wonderfully made,
Wonderfully made are you.

there's this girl
and she knows
everything she wants
never losing a feather

and it makes me insecure, all at once
and I'm trying to hold on
but I'm losing every feather
one by one, they're gone with all my colors

Now I can't put my finger on a page or a word
while her book's already written
can I just borrow all the confidence it takes?
for only just one minute..

the more she knows the more I dont
she's standing in her river
but I can't even go near her 
cuz I can't even get my feet wet

now I can't put my finger on a page or word
to figure out my story
oh can I just borrow all the confidence it takes?
Instead of all my worries?

I dont know who I am
and I don't know if I have
what it takes to figure out
what I'm supposed to be

now I can't put my finger on a page or a work
cuz everythings so written
oh can I just borrow all the confidence it takes 
for only just one minute?
