Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yesterday I talked to God we had a conversation
Told him that I’m sorry I lost communication
But I just, I just needed some holiness
I said that the things that I’ve been trying end up in frustration
Life ain’t what it seems in any situation
Then he said, he said the strangest thing
[Verse 2]
He said how does it feel to be human
Does some of the best plans you make get ruined
Do people curse you and flowers ain’t blooming
How does it feel
He said how does it feel to be human
If I could for one day I just might do it
Dance till the sun comes up to my music
How does it feel
How does it feel
[Verse 3]
Yesterday I talked to god we had a conversation
I asked him why this life is a crazy combination
The numbers, numbers, numbers we can’t read
Yeah for sure I got some friends but we got complications
Most of us are happy with some medication
But I could, I could really use some wings
[Verse 4]
He said how does it feel to be human
Cause some of the best plans I make get ruined
Do people curse you and flowers ain’t blooming
How does it feel
He said how does it feel to be human
If I could for one day I might just do it
Dance till the sun comes up to my music
How does it feel
How’s it feel
How’s it feel
[Verse 5]
How does it feel to be human
If I could for just one day I might just do it
Dance till the sun comes up to my music
How does it feel
How’s it feel
(Just one day)
[Verse 6]
How does it feel to be human
If I could for one day I just might do it
Dance till the sun comes up to my music
How does it feel
How’s it feel
How’s it feel
