The Calling
KISKE Michael Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well better it is when you can hold on to it
When you keep the grip to push it higher

The further you get the more you use it up
You got to look for news and you better do!

Give me something that'll do the driving
I will take while driving's what we better do!

God send whispers,
Shining color pictures go all through my head
A new light shines over everything I ever knew and everything I did!

I hear you calling my name
I hear you calling just the same

How could I know that I would get to see it
When I keep the laws of all our fathers?

The more I pray the more they take control
The more they bless my soul and I want 'em to!

Up to the stars that's where my soul is flying
And I see that nothing else matters

With everything that my heart can take
They gonna lift me up and I see the truth!

God send whispers,
Shining color pictures go all through my head
A new light shines over everything I ever knew and everything I did!

I hear you calling my name
I hear you calling just the same

And I want to fly so high when I die!

I hear you calling my name
I hear you calling just the same





And I want to fly so high when I die!
