This is the Stuff

Francesca Battistelli reminds us not to let the little stuff get us down!

Lyrics to "This is the Stuff"

I lost my keys in the great unknown

And call me please 'Cuz I can't find my phone

This is the stuff that drives me crazy
This is the stuff that's getting to me lately
In the middle of my little mess
I forget how big I'm blessed
This is the stuff that gets under my skin
But I gotta trust You know exactly what You're doing
It might not be what I would choose
But this is the stuff You use

45 in a 35
Sirens and fines while I'm running behind
Whoa

This is the stuff that drives me crazy
This is the stuff that's getting to me lately
In the middle of my little mess
I forget how big I'm blessed
This is the stuff that gets under my skin
But I gotta trust You know exactly what You're doing
It might not be what I would choose
But this is the stuff You use

So break me of impatience
Conquer my frustrations
I've got a new appreciation
It's not the end of the world

Oh Oh Oh

This is the stuff that drives me crazy
This is the stuff
Someone save me
In the middle of my little mess
I forget how big I'm blessed
This is the stuff that gets under my skin
And I've gotta trust You know exactly what You're doing
It might not be what I would choose
But this is the stuff You use

Oh Oh Oh Oh
This is the stuff You use

I'm on My Way

Nate Fowler's "I'm On My Way"

Listen here

It's been so long since we've talked
It's been so long since I've seen your face
I try to cover my scars and hide my guilt and shame
But I'm turning my back on my only friend

And my heart is drifting further away
And I can't keep pretending that I'm okay

I'm on my way
To wherever I need to be to see your face
Cause I need your strength
I need your grace
I'm on my way

I need to believe in what you're saying
Even though it's so hard to admit that you are right
It's from myself that I've been hiding
My worth in your eyes is what I'm denying

And my heart is drifting further away
And I can't keep pretending that I'm okay

I'm on my way
To wherever I need to be to see your face
Cause I need your strength
I need your grace
I'm on my way

All these faces constantly changing
All these places are never the same
But you remain
You always hold on
You're grip is so strong even when
Even when I think you're gone

And my heart is drifting further away
And I can't keep pretending that I'm okay
