Lay Them Down Songtext
von BeBe Winans

I got my plans made
I have my heart set
I know my futures bright
But I trust You
And I give em to Ya
Or they won′t turn out right

So I lay them down
So I lay them down
I lay them down
I lay them down

I got a couple years/that I wish I could get back/-- I took the wheel then I got off track/won't complain about the past but I′m glad to be back/and I'm man enough to admit my thinkin was whack/See the windshields fuzzy and the rearview's clear/but I can′t make my plans at the end of the year/don′t know in advance like the drumroll playing/thought let's wait and see was a dumb ′ol saying/but them old saints know that's part of the plan/you can′t see the way so you hold His hand/think of that, why God wanna walk with a man/Picture that why the Lord wanna talk to the sand/that He made wit His hand/I don't know, but I′m thankful He can/make a way, split the waters and I'm on dry land/He got me and He got my fam/so I lay back and chill like I'm getting a tan, feel me?


I got my plans made
I have my heart set
I know my futures bright
But I trust You
And I give em to Ya
Or they won′t turn out right

So I lay them down
So I lay them down
I lay them down
I lay them down

Main man Dwayne got a J to die for/killer crossover and he play like Michael/the young girls sweat him cuz they saying he might go/the first or second round and that′s straight outta high school/Friday night he discovered what life do/car accident on the way to the night jook/his best friend told him that God don't like you/cuz he lost half a leg, and nearly his life too/--3 years he kept to himself/feelin′ like a lost cause left on the shelf/Lord spoke to Him said now it's time to help/dusted off his game and went to tryout/made a college team and the evening news/wrote a book wit advise that the people could use/bestseller so his crib got exceptional views/then he built a rec center to inspire the youth - he′s a legend

I got my plans made
I have my heart set
I know my futures bright
But I trust You
And I give em to Ya
Or they won't turn out right

So I lay them down
So I lay them down
I lay them down
I lay them down

Never go a day without dreaming real big/and everything I pray is real big/being on top of the world for a minute/everybody want a day to feel this/when its all said and done/and I look into the eyes of the one/there′s only one prize for ASON/and that's to hear Him say "well done"/As a teen, I thought I was grown/got grown then I try to be God on my own/stop prayin' just actin′ like I′m on the throne/see a visionary likes to have it all in control, whoa/I hear the words but I'm not really there/like assistant head coaches talkin to a pro player/til I miss the winnin shot, now I see what You′re saying, yeah/here go my plans, you're free to rearrange em
