Notes: heavy distorted guitars, raw vocals, minor key, brooding mid-tempo,
[Verse 1 – raw, spoken-sung, low and heavy]
A time to be born, a time to die
A time to plant and watch it wither dry
A time to kill, a time to heal
A time to break down everything you feel
A time to weep, a time to laugh
A time to mourn when things fall apart so fast
A time to hold on, time to let it go
What do we gain from all we do below?
[Pre-Chorus – tension building, vocals rising]
He set eternity inside our chest
But we can't see the whole—just east to west
We labor hard, we grasp, we break and bleed
And still we can't make sense of what we need
[Chorus – full distortion, raw and anguished]
There is a time for everything
Under the sun, under the sun
There is a time for everything
But do we know what's already done?
We cannot find it out
We cannot find it out
[Verse 2 – gritty, almost spoken word]
A time for war, a time for peace
A time for silence—let the noise decrease
A time to love, a time to hate
A time when all you built just can't be saved
God made it beautiful in its own way
But beauty don't erase the weight of days
What was—it is again, it spins around
The crooked things stay crooked, stay unbound
[Pre-Chorus – same tension, desperate edge]
He set eternity inside our chest
But we can't see the whole—just east to west
We labor hard, we grasp, we break and bleed
And still we can't make sense of what we need
[Chorus – full distortion, raw and anguished]
There is a time for everything
Under the sun, under the sun
There is a time for everything
But do we know what's already done?
We cannot find it out
We cannot find it out
[Bridge – stripped back, single guitar, quiet dread]
I know there is nothing better
Than to eat and drink and find
Some joy inside the labor
Before you leave it all behind
For God will judge the righteous
And God will judge the rest
Every time and every purpose—
He holds it to His chest
[Final Chorus – massive, full band, cathartic]
There is a time for everything
Under the sun, under the sun
There is a time for everything
God's work—it can't be undone
We cannot find it out
We cannot find it out
We cannot find it out
[Outro – feedback and decay, guitar fades]
Under the sun… under the sun…
