Above

We should be like the quail in the desert sea
We should be happier than a honey bee at ease
We should be as joyful as a June bug, so free
We shouldn't talk behind each other's backs please

Adore us, for we are perfect in Your image
Belong once more, for we are not water under the bridge
Over the rainbow, we will be as one with Him
Very awesome that we're two peas in a pod -
Elegance will be our dance in a whim, in a whim

Engulfed in utter humility, for we believe in God
Vitality is key - just look up to He
Old sayings mean so much to us, but we are not in vain
Butterflies soar beautifully - we must have glee
Allow us to be made in unity...God will see us through our Pain

We should be telling the truth behind the lies
We should be accepting one another honestly
We should be yelling out our hellos and goodbyes
We shouldn't walk separately...we walk together preciously

Adore us, for we are perfect in Your image
Belong once more, for we are not water under the bridge
Over the rainbow, we will be as one with Him
Very awesome that we're two peas in a pod -
Elegance will be our dance in a whim, in a whim

Engulfed in utter humility, for we believe in God
Vitality is key - just look up to He
Old sayings mean so much to us, but we are not in vain
Butterflies soar beautifully - we must have glee
Allow us to be made in unity...God will see us through our Pain

We should be like the falcons in the blessed air
We should be hopeful as a beautiful dove without a care
We should be full of delight and share our love
We shouldn't take anyone for granite, but look towards Above
