Spirit Thing

It's not a family trait

It's nothing that I ate

And it didn't come from skating with holy rollers

It's an early warning sign

It keeps my life in line

But it's so hard to define

Never mind

It's just a spirit thing

It's just a holy nudge

It's like a circuit judge in the brain

It's just a spirit thing

It's here to guard my heart

It's just a little hard to explain

It pushes when I quit

It smells a counterfeit

Sometimes it works a bit like a teleprompter

When it's teleprompting you

I pray you'll let it through

And I'll help you with the how

But for now

It's just a spirit thing

It's just a holy nudge

It's like a circuit judge in the brain

It's just a spirit thing

It's here to guard my heart

It's just a little hard to explain

I took the pulpit

Then backed down again

Some things in heaven cannot be explained

I took the soapbox

Then backed down again

Some things in heaven cannot be explained

I took the airwaves

Then backed down again

Some things in heaven cannot be explained

It's just a spirit thing

It's just a holy nudge

It's like a circuit judge in the brain

It's just a spirit thing

It's here to guard my heart

It's just a little hard to explain
