Lyrics What If It Was - Ashton Shepherd

What If It Was

We all live running in a direction
So sure of where we’re going
No slowing down
Head set on certain thoughts and conceptions
On what we’re gonna do today, tomorrow
Right now
But what if right now vanished
Just that quick something can happen
And man, it does
You were never thinking
This is my last second to breathe
But what if it was
What if today they laid you in the ground
What if today your redemption’s lost or either found
What if today your loved ones wake without you around
How did you love, did you do enough
It’s a must
What if it was
What if it was
Late one autumn evening my brother left
Saying «y'all I won’t be long»
Mama grabbed his arm without reason
And said «Son, today won’t you just stay home?»
And his I won’t be long vanished
Just that quick something happened
God it was tough
Was this supposed to be a lesson for me
What if it was
Cause what if today they laid me in the ground
What if today my redemption’s lost or either found
What if today my loved ones wake without me around
How did I love, did I do enough
It’s a must
What if it was
What if it was
We all live running in a direction
We’re so sure of where we’re going
No slowing down
