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

When I was a kid, my grandfather was a preacher
He 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 dollars
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 nots
And as I walked through, that storybook of life
I’ve been looking for a angel, to chase the devil out of mind, whoa

When I was a kid, my grandfather was a preacher
He talked about love, 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 dollars
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

When I was a kid, my grandfather was a preacher
He 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 dollars
But you can never spend his wealth

He was a million miles from a million dollars
But you can never spend his wealth
