Freely

All lyrics by Stephanie Gummelt.

flowers only live for a while

they grow and blow in the wind, 

a stem with a smile

but I know flowers die in winter's trials

still I love them wholly 

though I lose them to the nile of tears 

sourced from my own pain that beautiful things can't die cuz 

snow becomes rain 

and everything perishes to become clean 

and I, I don't owe you anything, oh anything

and I, I don't owe you anything, oh anything

but I'll give it to you freely 

precious treasure of pride diamonds I 

trap within, oh my flesh, and I'll die 

and in the ground buried with my stash 

I'm stealing diamonds of their purpose, 

to reflect 

in the sunshine that I can't provide, nourishment 

and the love I hide will fight and eat me alive 

cuz love always wins 

and I, I don't owe you anything, oh anything

and I, I don't owe you anything, oh anything

but I'll give it to you freely 

cuz I have it 

cuz I have it 

cuz God gave it to me
