Testo God Send - Phife Dawg feat. Dwele
Testo della canzone God Send (Phife Dawg feat. Dwele), tratta dall'album Forever
Uh
Sometimes life's gonna throw curveballs your way
It's a matter if you can knock it out of the park or not
In other words, a gang star
Everybody must meet their moment of truth
Check it out
Here we go
When you can't go on (Uh-huh), remember
Your Jah bless (It's all about Jah)
And let that pain fall away (Yeah)
(Whoa, whoa, oh-oh) Uh-huh
On a rainy day, remember your Jah bless (Come on)
Watch them clouds blow away (Uh-huh)
(Whoa, whoa, oh-oh)
Now I'm feelin' all was lost, how will I make it now?
Jahrobi calls on Christmas Day, hit me, exchangin' vows
That made my day, guess shorty was truly the one
But trust me, fam, teachin' the cold is gon' kill me, son
With that, I took my moms advice, she kept me at my word
Moved to the West, set weddin' date for April twenty-third
Jumped the broom, feelin' good, love kept the boy alive
Honeymoon in Tobago, did did some shows with Tribe
Hopin' to do a group album, but that went nowhere fast
And to make matters worse, my boy J Dilla passed
Feelin' bad 'cause me and Dilla played phone tag
For at least two years and now he's gone, damn
Wish I could've reached out to simply wish him well
It hurts to know that at the same time we would go through hell
I missed you, fam, and that's not just for your sound
What up, my dukes? Malik is here to hold you down
When you can't go on, remember your Jah bless (Uh-huh)
And let that pain fall away (Remember that)
(Whoa, whoa, oh-oh, I want you to remember)
On a rainy day, remember your Jah bless (Yeah)
Watch them clouds blow away (Come on)
(Whoa, whoa, oh-oh)
On tour with Tribe once again, great to be with the crew
Stepson in his third year of playin' AAU
Wish I could lend my B while I get to his throwin' game
Same goes for my bro who started ninth grade
Feels good hittin' the stage with all our beats and rhymes
Chemistry on point, still, we quest to shine
For me, it's all therapeutic, illness not on my mind
Phife should go all out like it's the last time
From Thanksgiving '06 to, say, the end of May
Your boy was so damn sick, felt like my last days
But the God I serve ain't see it that way
Guess what I'm sayin' is my whole family had prayed
Hospital bed where I laid by the two week fade
Started hemophili' after Memorial Day
End of '07, hip-hop honored Tribe, but ain't that great?
Media said Phife on crack due to losin' weight
I laughed it off 'cause one thing Phifey has is pride
I'd never let 'em see me sweat, I kept it all inside
2008, Tribe back on the road again
Well wishes from enemies as well as friends
See, by this time, most knew what was goin' on
Some gave me dap, said, "Phife, piggy, stand strong"
Along with that, you know what else bound to come along
These punk-ass haters wishin' that Malik was gone
But to God be the glory, He kept my sanity
Gave me a wifey who come with bagels here for me
I'm speakin' morally, physically, spiritually
Always lovin' me for me unconditionally
Not just annually or strictly anniversaries
Never can it be put in words what you has done for me
Wore my emotions on my sleeve and you would comfort me
When you was ill and you and mom would hold that down for me
Four years on the list, and word, you donate the kidney?
That ain't nothin' but Jah Jah blessin' me
That ain't nothin' but Jah Jah blessin' me, hey
That ain't nothin' but Jah Jah blessin' me, come on
All I need in this life is family, friends
It's God sent from above, oh
Love and light (And I have), life and energy
Jah still blessin' me, take me out my misery
It's hard to be the best you when love ain't around
Blessings from Jah, send my love on down
Never can we stop with that feel-good sound
I never knew a love like this God sent, hey
It's hard to be the best you when love not around
Blessings from Jah, send your love down, yeah
No, we can't stop with that feel-good sound, yeah
I never knew a love like this, no, no, no, no
Oh, no, no
Hey, yeah
