AntBanks380 - Psalms 118 [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Oh give thanks unto the LORD
For HIS mercy endures;
Forever, and ever, and ever

Chorus:
HIS mercy endures
HIS mercy endures
HIS mercy endures
Forever and ever
HIS mercy endures
HIS mercy endures
HIS mercy endures
And ever
And ever
And ever
Oh YOUR love is so good
That's why I praise YOU forever
And ever
And ever
And ever
And ever
Oh YOUR love is so good
That's why I praise YOU forever

Verse 1 (AntBanks380)

Ain't never had nothing
Had to hustle hard
Couldn't put my faith in man
So I had to trust in GOD
Had to learn to peep game
So I could keep sane
Remember the golden rules
Can't ignore those teachings
Running round with them fools
You'll get derailed or detained
Still trying to break invisible chains
Being held on your brain
So I do what I got to do
Just to maintain
Even if it means
Putting away childish things
Ever wonder why the LORD would allow this pain?
Inspite of al the hardships still I can smile again
Got the joy of the LORD that's how I learned to fight
So many battlefield scars trying to earn my stripes
Now I'm addicted to Christ
The ONE who gave me new life
Paid the ultimate sacrifice
That's why I try and do right
Now I'm a living testimony bout how GOD is good
Survived the north side of Houston
One of the hardest hoods
Cause
HIS mercy endures
HIS mercy endures
His mercy endures
Forever and ever

Verse 2 (AntBanks380)

Sometimes it's hard to get outside the box
Understand the paradigm
Live within the paradox;
In order to live we must die
And to gain
We must give
Opposites attract
But I remain positive
Started off hustling wasn't trying to get rich
Didn't faint
Didn't quit
Now I'm reaping the benefits
Cause I've been blessed by the best
And I can't be cursed
Finally figured out my purpose
The reason I was birthed
To give praise to the Father
Honor Mother Earth
Can't forget that memory verse
Bout how the last shall be first
So keep the Most High
Close by
And if you smart
Then you would
Write the words on the tablet of your heart
So when the road gets dark
It'll light your path
And you can look forward to the future
Inspite of your past
And you might
Actually discover that you like to laugh
And you can have a good time
In spite of your cash
Cause
HIS mercy endures
HIS mercy endures
His mercy endures
Forever and ever
