"Brick By Brick" Lyrics

Three steps forward, two steps back we go,
You try and push harder, they push right back, I know,
That time moves fast and change moves painfully slow.
It's hard to see the shift when you're so close.

Brick by brick, we are building.
You won't see for the longest time,
We're building a new life.

You plant a seed and wait for it to grow.
They hate it now but they're too scared to know,
That their children's children will sit underneath it's shade,
And their children's children will bask in the love you made.

Brick by brick, we are building.
You won't see for the longest time,
We're building a new life.
It won't show for the longest time
[x3]
