Lyrics
You can diagnosis darkness And in the middle of night, that's alright But the one that brings life Can prescribe and distribute light For the love of love The life of life For the hope of hope For the light of light For the love of love For the life of life For the death of death For the light I was in all my pain and then you came Relieved my troubled soul And into this worn-out heart you poured your love If only you could know And when you heal me, you reveal me And I hear you clearly in my song So if we're leaving, I keep singing So you will still be here when you're gone Okay, I'm here for the healing, I'm here for the wholeness I'm here for that feeling that the pit of my soul gets With me and my loved one in the midst of the closeness The barriers don't exist, I'm here for the nosis I'm here for that medicine, ain't here for no pettiness I no longer get energy from being competitive Don't know if it's my second daughter, third baby on the way Or if it's the fourth decade I met the other day But I have zero energy at time for what ain't feeding me and mine I don't cut people off, I redefine I'm here for the village life, nobody leave the tribe Here for that intimacy in me you see inside I'm not here for your opinion, I'm here for your truth I do hear ya, my face full of tears is the proof I'm here now because nothing else is guaranteed I'm trying to be here for the people that's here for me I was in all my pain and then you came Relieved my troubled soul And into this worn-out heart you poured your love If only you could know And when you heal me, you reveal me And I hear you clearly in my song So if we're leaving, I keep singing So you will still be here when you're gone Enter the world of meaning, the Sacred, the reason, the State of your being, the Place of convening They say seeing's believing But that could be deceiving Depending on which instrument does the receiving The eye sees the form, the function, the allure, the seduction Only the healthy heart knows the substance Your vessel is oh so illustrious But one day you're confronted with the fact it can only pour what's within We know the art of truly living is learning how to die We gon' paint this one vivid in the sky To twinkle in your eye, the magic and the crackle in your voice Your quotables attracted to the source, all I wanna be known for My greatest virtue is that I learned from you And loved you and served you And that I belong to you, and when I long for you I can say whatever I am and write songs for you I was in all my pain and then you came Relieved my troubled soul And into this worn-out heart you poured your love If only you could know And when you heal me, you reveal me And I hear you clearly in my song So if we're leaving, I keep singing So you will still be here when you're gone For the love of love For the life of life For the hope of hope For the light of light For the love of love For the life of life For the death of death For the light When you're gone Be here when you're gone
