Preacher - OneRepublic

When I was a kid I used to buy and sell gravity

I knew how to fly and I would teach you for a fee

Broke every window in my hotel heart

But I was only 5 years old the 12 years scar

I did the same voice that throwing up mind

See son you got an angel to chase the devil out of mind

When I was a kid my grandfather was a preacher

The talked about god yeah he was something like a teacher

He said god only helps those

Who learn to help themselves

He was a million miles from a million battles

But you can never spend his wealth

I took a little faith and put it in a parking lot

I drove to a strange town full of have and have nones

And as I walked through that story book of life

I've been looking for an angel to chase the devil out of mind whoa

When I was a kid my grandfather was a preacher

The talked about god yeah he was something like a teacher

He said god only helps those

Who learn to help themselves

He was a million miles from a million battles

But you can never spend his wealth

Wave put your hands up and hands down

Wave put your hands up and hands down

Wave put your hands up and hands down【x3】

When I was a kid my grandfather was a preacher

The talked about life yeah he was something like a teacher

He said god only helps those

Who learn to help themselves

He was a million miles from a million battles

But you can never spend his wealth

He was a million miles from a million battles

But you can never spend his wealth

记得在天真的童年里，

地心引力曾唯我所控。

知道自由翱翔的秘诀，

给点好处我便会教你。

心灵像一间旅馆，飞翔时撞破了每一扇窗。

虽才年仅五岁，却已像少年般满身是伤。

总是听到同样的声音，

在我的脑中不断回响。

他说“孩子你心中的天使，

会在黑夜中为你消灾避祸"。

在我还年幼时，

祖父是名牧师。

常谈神的奥义，

如同一位良师。

他总是教我，

天助自助者。

虽然他离腰缠万贯相去万里，

却留给了我无尽的精神财富。

我原本心存一丝信念，

并把它放在了停车场。

驶进那光怪陆离的城市，

人人都为了物质而挣扎。

挥舞你的双手，高举后再落下。【X3】

在我还年幼时，

祖父是名牧师。

常谈人生奥义，

如同一位良师，

他总是教我，

天助自助者。

他离腰缠万贯相去万里，

却给后人留下了无尽的精神财富。
