lord giveth - beleaf lyrics
[intro]
for those of you, you know, like, i’m doing well, you know what i’m saying?
like, i know we’re not supposed to last forever
i know that everyone has, you know, their time and we don’t know when our time is
you know, and i think about my own mortality and i know
[verse]
in the light of eternity
i’m a speck of dust and still i rush, even still i fight
even still i like to hold on a little longer than i feel i might
i lead you, i need you, i never turn out right
well, i’m definitely seein’ death all around me
since i was a young boy countin’ on my county
and i’m countin’ all my blessings ’cause they all do surround me
man, i was a lost cause till the lord found me
man, i was a lost cause to my aunt margie
man, i was a lost cause to my grand* look
man, i was a lost cause to my grandfather
may saw fresh and rice, but the okra he moshed up
uh, and he would open his doors
and i would open my ears
i wouldn’t stop him from droppin’ them gems
it felt like profits when i was listenin’
we disagreed and he wouldn’t bend
i wouldn’t fold, it feel like gold
it feel like treasure to weather the storms
it feel like ancestors rootin’ me on
i guess i knew one day he would be gone
and i would keep on
i feel like ancestors* wait, wait, wait
i guess the ancestors rootin’ me on
[chorus]
lord giveth
and the lord take away
when i say bye to myself
i will not be afraid
when i need some help
please don’t walk away
no matter how the cards was dealt
i wanna see him one day
lord giveth
and the lord take away
when i say bye to myself
i will not be afraid
when i need some help
please don’t walk away
no matter how the cards was dealt
i wanna see him one day
[outro]
i know that one day i’ll see you
ok
[?]
yo, i appreciate you guys for listening, um, to this because this like a expression
a lot of times when i go through painful things, like, the things that i can’t articulate
i have to express them in some form or fashion and most of the time, it’s through music
but one of the things my grandfather said to me while we were all sitting around him right before he passed away was to touch him
like, he couldn’t see very well, he wanted to know who was in the room
he wanted us to touch his legs, touch his hands, touch his head
he just wanted to know we was around
i thought that was* i thought it was amazing
