Spoken: Good evening. I wasn't prepared for this, but I was asked to share my story with all of you guys tonight. And, as I was walking up on stage, I thought I'd give it a title, so, Amazing Grace, that's what Ima call it. Yeah.
Chorus:
Amazing Grace x9
What’s it feel like?
To be Happy?
To be joyful?
To be gasping?
For air
Cuz your joking
Laughing so hard
man you choking
To be careless
Blow a smoke ring
To be an heiress
of a fortune
To have kindreds All around you
To be peaceful
Straight loungin'
What’s it feel like?
To live a hard life?
A year’s wages
Less than a car price
To be stressed out
And that’s genuine
Your heart’s anxious
So sensitized
You're full of poetry
But not a sentence rhymes
Full of cliches
Trying to get your ducks in line
God open up Heaven
Give me just one sign
Cuz I feel home alone
Like I’m left behind
Chorus
What’s it feel like?
To break even?
To have a broken heart?
To be grieving?
Cut to the core can’t stop the bleeding
Wish upon a star
But you can’t even see them
Telling all your friends
This is my season
Life is so processed feeling like a vegan
I can’t stand the wait
I feel canned in
My rough edges show
But don’t sand them
What’s it feel like?
To have broken wings?
When your used to flying
Higher than the planes
I feel the rain, sleet, snow and hail
Call me cliche but I’m fighting tooth and nail
One more step takes you further from the rail
You’ve been leaning your whole life on
So afraid to fail
God open my eyes, Unveil
The bars of these raps
The bars of this jail
Give me eyes so I can see
See beyond these broken wings
Lift me up where I can fly
To a paradise on high
When you take me by the hand
Lead me to a promised land
When I see you face to face
I’ll be singing
Chorus
I never knew a love, love like this
God is love
God is
So amazing
Oh my soul man
Give me the mic and let me tell the whole world that
Chorus
What’s it feel like to be one of those?
You know an artist
Counting all your shows
Adding up your change
Then adding up the facts
Balancing on a tight rope circus act
Johnny Cash said, “Burning Ring of Fire”
If you can’t jump through it
Then you won’t be hired
You feel, feel like you a child
Holding your training wheels tight for another mile
What does it feel like?
To be a father
To raise a large family
Like money ain't a problem
But you got problems and money can’t solve em
You want to resolve em
But can’t get to the bottom
These broken wings
Have you looking towards the Autumn
The sky is beautiful man
It’s calling
Amazing Grace
That’s what I’m hollering
I know there’s more to life than just being tolerant
