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 |
