Lyrics Can't Take It Away - Dj Maj, TobyMac

Can't Take It Away

So thinking back on it all, it’s like
It’s a beautiful thing, let’s go
Yo they can’t take it away
Form, they can’t take it away
TobyMac they can’t take it away
Maj they can’t take it away
No they can’t take it away
No they can’t take it away
It seems I was oblivious to it
I didn’t see you lurking in the shadows
One would think the close calls woulda gave you away
But I was stuck in two feet shallow
I saw the footprints and then
Naah, it couldn’t have been him
I wasn’t the type of cat to pray
Perhaps I’ll chalk it up as coincidence
And commence to be my on my way
What makes a bad boy leave his stash cold turkey
And make vanity retreat from purple streets
I guess your rep is really opposite ruthless
You even walked the windy city with Mr. West it’s like
What we got (to my people all over the world)
They can’t take it away
They can’t take it away
No way, no way
Some wish to rewind the hands of time
And erase every mistake made
Others wish to discover the true meaning of life
A mystery through out the ages
Some say that you can’t exist, nah
How can it be when the very air we breathe
Is evidence we all have the capacity to believe
Without seeing a thing
What made the Passion such a blast
When so many peers left the theaters on the verge of tears
May be your story’s not all that impossible
It’s the fact you bring healing beyond the hospital and that’s why
So it doesn’t really matter what comes my way
Here to shake up the world that’s why I pray
Spread love and let the Son shine bright all day
They can’t take it away, can’t take it away
And if my heart beat stops pace tonight
I’m waking up and staring God in the face alright
So if you feel me get your hands in outta space so high
They can’t take it away
Yo DJ Maj I got your back on this track for fact
And if it’s me and you or you and me the deck be stack
So tell me why they gotta try and go and do us like that
Don’t they know they can’t take it away
Ain’t no robbing this joy ain’t no stealing this peace
Ain’t no taking our faith as we drop to our knees
They can take it all everything we possess
But they can’t take belief from down deep in our chest I rest
Our Father who art in heaven
Hallowed be Thy name
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done
On Earth as it is in heaven
No Maj (what) they can’t take a thing
(Sing your song Mac what)
They can’t take a thing away no
Africa they can’t take it away
India they can’t take it away
Arabia they can’t take it away
Israel they can’t take it away
