[00:01.43] I could play the background
[00:05.00] I could play the background
[00:08.33] Cause I know sometimes
[00:10.20] I get in the way
[00:12.66] So won't You take the lead, lead, lead, lead, lead
[00:16.22] So won't You take the lead, lead, lead, lead, lead
[00:19.61] And I can play the background, the background
[00:23.60] And You can take the lead
[00:26.26]
[00:27.23] It's evident You run the show, so let me back down
[00:31.00] You take the leading role
[00:32.55] And I'll play the background
[00:34.44] I know I miss my cues, know I forget my lines
[00:37.93] I'm sticking to Your script
[00:39.40] And I'm reading all Your signs
[00:41.32] I don't need my name in lights
[00:42.97] I don't need a starring role
[00:44.71] And why gain the whole wide world
[00:46.33] If I'm just gon'loose my soul
[00:48.15] And my ways ain't purified
[00:49.82] I'll live according to Your Word
[00:51.52] I can't endure this life without Your wisdom being heard
[00:55.16] So word to every dancer for a pop star
[00:58.48] Cause we all play the background, but mine's a Rock Star
[01:01.90] Yeah. So if you need me I'll be stage right
[01:05.35] Prayin'the whole world will start embracing stage fright
[01:08.75] So let me fall back and stop giving my suggestions
[01:12.11] Cause when I follow my obsessions
[01:14.00] I end up confessing
[01:15.55] That I'm not that impressive
[01:17.20] Matter of fact I'm who I are
[01:18.95] A trail of star dust leading to the Superstar
[01:23.70] I could play the background
[01:27.22] I could play the background
[01:30.40] Cause I know sometimes
[01:32.44] I get in the way
[01:34.70] So won't You take the lead, lead, lead, lead, lead
[01:38.11] So won't You take the lead, lead, lead, lead, lead
[01:41.66] And I can play the background, the background
[01:45.00] And You can take the lead
[01:49.88] I had a dream that I was captain of my soul
[01:52.66] I was master of my fate, lost control, and then I sank
[01:55.88] So I don't want to take the lead
[01:57.75] Cause I'm prone to make mistakes
[01:59.34] All these folks that follow me gon'end up in the wrong place
[02:02.77] So, just let me shadow You
[02:04.99] And just let me trace Your lines
[02:06.80] Matter of fact just take my pen
[02:08.65] Here, You create my rhymes
[02:10.41] Cause if I do this by myself
[02:12.05] I'm scared that I'll succeed
[02:13.60] And no longer trust in You
[02:15.40] Cause I only trust in me
[02:17.10] And see, that's how you end up headed to destruction
[02:20.60] Paving a road to nowhere
[02:22.20] Pour Your life out for nothing
[02:24.10] You pulled my card, I'm bluffing
[02:25.77] You know what's in my hand
[02:27.57] Me, I just roll to trust You
[02:29.25] You cause the dice to land
[02:31.00] I'm in control of nothing
[02:32.60] Follow You at any cost
[02:34.41] Some call it sovereign will
[02:36.00] All I know is You the boss
[02:37.70] And man I'm so at ease
[02:39.80] I'm so content
[02:41.30] I play the background like it's an instrument
[02:46.13] I could play the background
[02:49.54] I could play the background
[02:52.60] Cause I know sometimes
[02:54.70] I get in the way
[02:57.05] So won't You take the lead, lead, lead, lead, lead
[03:00.50] So won't You take the lead, lead, lead, lead, lead
[03:04.05] And I can play the background, the background
[03:07.20] And You can take the lead
[03:11.90] I know I'm safest when I'm in Your will and trust Your word
[03:15.40] And I know I'm dangerous when I trust myself, my vision blurred
[03:19.70] And I ain't got no time to play life's foolish games
[03:22.25] Got plenty aims, but do they really glorify Your name?
[03:25.60] And it's a shame the way I want to do these things for You, yet
[03:29.15] Don't even cling to You, take time to sit and glean from You
[03:32.88] It seems that You were patient in my ignorance
[03:36.00] If ignorance is bliss, its cause she never heard of this
[03:41.05] I could play the background
[03:44.44] I could play the background
[03:47.55] Cause I know sometimes
[03:49.50] I get in the way
[03:51.88] So won't You take the lead, lead, lead, lead, lead
[03:55.25] So won't You take the lead, lead, lead, lead, lead
[03:58.85] And I can play the background, the background
[04:02.30] And You can take the lead
[04:08.30] I could play the background
[04:11.80] I could play the background
[04:14.95] Cause I know sometimes
[04:17.11] I get in the way
[04:19.33] So won't You take the lead, lead, lead, lead, lead
[04:22.77] So won't You take the lead, lead, lead, lead, lead
[04:26.15] And I can play the background, the background.
[04:29.80] And You can take the lead
