Jelani Malik - This Is It

Hands High

Say goodbye fears
It's been a long year
It's been too long since I've stood strong
It's been too long since I faced you
Heavy handed with dreams all in my face
Man I can't waste it
Man I can't be sub-par
Gotta raise the bar like weight training
Lifting these bars to a higher accord
Can't be starving these stars for placement
College graduate
These loans like twice my salary
These songs get all my heart in it
All my heart in it, Not just part of it
Working artisan, all my time get spent
Outside of it, gotta pay the rent
Can't be late on it, losing tolerance
Gaining doubt again
But I just gotta count my joy again
Too many times I wanna fall
Give up on dreams can't give my all
Losing sleep ain't meant for me
But God said you'll rest in eternity
And I believe Him
Blind faith is a Wonder Stevie
Cataclysm is so uneasy
Got me living off the edge and queasy
Like this ain't easy
(Uh uh) This ain't easy
Man life ain't perfect
But I'm so determined
To show that He's worth it
This just ain't music, it's worship Go
Hands high
Hands high
Hands high
Hands high
Wave
Wave
Hands High
Hands high
Hands high
Hands high
Wave
Wave
Say goodbye fears
It's been a long year
Integrity's integral
And Honesty's essential
The more you want the right thing
Well compromise will tempt you
Metaphoric flashy lights is nice
But where will it get you
The question I ask myself
Sometimes at tables
Times tables
For time put in at tables with hours of labor
Pains me to know our time is spent on disaster
Plastered on everything we see
But can the problem be me
Hm...
Can the problem be me
Not seeing myself as he sees
Like why can't I just stay fit
Why can't I hear I'm loved and it feels legit
Why do I have to struggle with my past pain
Moving to my future
If I know they just gon' quit
Why is everybody near me quitting on trust
Trecking through the mud can't handle dust
Why must I put my faith on the line
Cause you don't understand
But agree with your thoughts about the common man
Now it's common, man, to question
What you believe to learn more lessons
Just know at the end of the day
No matter your struggles you killin' this pain
You're killing the mindset being created
That you don't need faith in the face of danger
That's why that baby was born in the manger God
Hands high
Hands high
Hands high
Hands high
Wave
Wave
Hands High
Hands high
Hands high
Hands high
Wave
Wave
I just wanna live my life
So my fears farewell I say goodbye
