lirik lagu peace, rejoice and release – eli manna

i remember a little while ago….
my grandma used to tell me about these
these heroes in the bible
and and one of the heroes that always stuck with me was elijah……
and how he went up to heaven in a firery chariot
and from that day i wanted to go home just like that but

what can i do to get there
these days i’m greatful to see
these youngins look up to me
i guess it was meant to be
i grew up hurt and bruised and lost and used with no vacation
now i got facial hair and care to lead a generation
walk in my past, if you make it back then i salute ya
if you come back same as you went then baby i rebuke ya
all of my visions, clash against religion
my only mission, to ease some of y’all tension

my mind and soul has found
peace inside a middle ground
somewhere between the heavens
somewhere between the town
i’m here to pick you up
cuz i can’t let him down
in this ol test of life
good lord don’t fail me now
every cadence every line i rap is filled with power
any key, every note i sing make demons cower
only tears and happy years will reveal who i am
soul food don’t look the same when momma flip the pan
i thought the choir was cool
granddaddy look at me now
i put my school on the map
became the king of the south
question is what i do now?
you always had the right answer
god must of needed your heart
and my mind won’t settle for lesser
ma always talks about you
might love you more then i do
says you were filled with wisdom
i wanna be like that too
now i don’t normally let mistakes take a hold of me
but this ones a minority carries a strong authority
my pride ain’t let me say i love you the last time i saw you
remember staring at the sky when they said god had called you
it didn’t hit me couldn’t get me til i had got older
you wasn’t just a man i think you were god’s greatest soldier
that’s why you had big shoulders
i see a slight resemblance
you dreamed for peace with pieces
i push for the assimblance
and if i had a chance to see you one last time
i’d say i love you and i wish that we had more time

in these little 20 years i’ve been here
i’ve learned that just because you grew up in church don’t make you sanctified
just because you were raised in the street don’t mean you no thug
old folks don’t got all the answers
and youngins ain’t always “being disrespectful”
