God Is Love |
The unconditional, critical mission, listen to |
The indivisible, mystical, it was meant for you |
And meant for me, infinitely |
Even been to prisons to visit you |
Ask, «What would Christians do?» |
Well some are harassing Native Americans |
If God is love, why is hate in the air again? |
Search for Samaritans in the hood, misunderstood |
A savior comes, will he only come for the good? |
The lost tribe of Shabazz and the second class |
God, I see you in the streets where the checks is cashed |
Hear you in the heartbeat, hopin' that love’ll last |
I know you in the words, «Where the first is last» |
They try to use math to quantify you |
In 2005, you saved lives by the Bayou |
I know you in the mouth of the spouse singing, «I do» |
The most vital is how I describe you |
Even when the hard times come |
I’ll be standing in your love |
Grateful, grateful for this life |
You turned on the light (Hey, hey) |
Even when the hard times come |
I’ll be standing in your love |
Grateful, grateful for this life |
You turned on the light |
We were Buffalo Soldiers, dreadlocked Rastas |
Praying to Jehovah, Rafa, in the back of cop cars |
Even then we knew that love was not far |
It’s in the passion of the teachers and the rockstars |
The muslim sisters singing «allāhu akbar» |
It’s coming from where Maya and Pop are |
It’s in the grandchild’s stare up at Papa |
«Love is love» became the mantra |
The montage for creation, we need it in relation |
When two ships pass, one love is the flotation |
It’s what God used to put the planet in rotation |
It’s what the culture used to build a hip hop nation |
From the basement to the attic, where cookie show for magic |
It’s what we told the world when we said our lives matter |
Turn the student to a master, hustler to a pastor |
That’s why I’m a rapper, it’s all that I’m after |
Even when the hard times come |
Yeah I know that |
I’ll be standing in your love (Yeah) |
Oh, that’s why I am |
Grateful, (So) grateful for this life |
You turned on the light (Hey, hey) |
God your love has taught me that |
Even when the hard times come |
Oh, I know that I’ll |
I’ll be standing in your love (Hey, and I am) |
Grateful, grateful for this life (Grateful) |
You turned on the light |
You turned on the light, yes you did |
When it’s hard (Yeah) |
I know you’re right there |
Tell me where would I be? |
Placed it all |
Without your love |
At your feet |
Where would I be? |
I don’t know |
Without your light |
What tomorrow brings |
Tell me where would I be? |
Without your grace |
What I know is |
I am so grateful, I am so grateful |
Oh oh, oh I know (Oh-oh) |
Ooh, ooh, yeah, yeah |
'Cause you are the light |
Mm-mm-hmm |
