Gods Overhead by Mikey Jay Lyrics

Genre: rap | Year: 2014

[Verse 1]
Tell me how you feel, yeah, what’s real?
If you’re aiming to escape, we can make a deal
You don’t need drugs to make you feel better
I know for a fact, you’ve been under the weather
Friends saying that you’ve been acting different
Hearing your problems but don’t listen
And now you’re stuck lying in a chair
Listening to a person who gets paid to care
Confessing everything if you wanna dare
Tears rushing down, could you prepare?
Man, these days anything is better than living
Wishing the pain was gone, keep forgetting
That maybe there’s another day, another chance
If we took a chance, maybe we’d advance
At least, you breathing fresh air out here
If we suffocated from the toxins, I fear
That greenhouse effects rip the ozone we love
And kill everybody, including those we trust

[Hook 1]
Gods overhead watching over me
Can’t you see that we’re meant to be free?
Gods overhead watching over me tonight
And I know everything’s gonna be alright, alright, alright, alright
Yeah, I’m the man
But without God, I wouldn’t be the man that I am
[Bridge]
(Crosses on necks, choir singing
Preachers preach, holy spirit’s ringing
Can we really say we live in the moment
If you believe, go and own it)

[Verse 2]
So many people worth putting down the bottle
And so many youth needing a role model
I couldn’t picture losing family, I was blind
I get scared whenever their health would decline
I lost a body, gained more spirit with time
Rest in peace in a pair of hands divine
I know you’re watching over us all
Singing some hymns, I can recall
I rather, sit back in reprise
And wait until the hype dies
Over the Aryan and African races
Tears don’t discriminate faces
Whatever you and I might be
It’s not hard to see, we were meant to be
We were meant to breathe
Whatever we believe in, we coexist
The military that we go to enlist
And become a united front
Until the hate is done
Coolness of our skin against the sun
We still rise up as one
I’m not saying I don’t have pride
But that’s a deadly one, I deny
That it’s the best thing to have
After lusting for what someone had
I’m still human, learning to move on
Hunger in the belly, something to chew on
Food for the soul, as if mine was getting sick
You got options, but who made you pick?
Can you say your parents didn’t try their best
And didn’t come to your side when you were upset?
And now I’m separated, I only got God and Jesus
Even when I was down, somebody still believed us
I’ve got trust issues, certain of my faith
A couple cases where truth was a crave
Roads winding on the way to Heaven
I’m speeding on them like my Uncle Kevin
And I’m not saying I got a ticket, I’ll just cruise
Forget the stress, I’m still on the move
[Hook 2]
Gods overhead, watching over me
I pray in the day and night to thee
Can we really say we stray from the path
And still come back together for a laugh?

[Bridge]
Crosses on necks, choir singing
Preachers preach, holy spirit’s ringing
Can we really say we live in the moment
If you believe, go and own it
