Intentional by Zabbai Lyrics
January 2016 my uncle died and was buried
Family tightened cause everybody was weary
Who’da known
Month later I’d be married
To celebrate and mourn in 4 weeks is pretty scary
Everything is temporary
I needa' call up my cousins
Why we beefin' over petty stuff but know that we love'm
Why we hurtin' while they hurtin'
But won't go out to hug'em
Because we feel like we always initiating the struggle
It's real talk but, who talking the least
Talking but you never listen you'll never receive
To listen and to understand two different things
If you plantin' in they garden, what'll be the seed
And if you don't agree then what do you believe
The measure of your pettiness or measure of your King
If God reconciled a child he forgave
Then why would you follow thinking you
Shouldn't do the same, He's calling us to change
I take my time for granted yeah
No time for friends or family
I don’t wanna regret the time that we spent
Thinking you'll never leave
Let’s reconcile let’s break it down
Let’s be more intentional
Be more intentional
Be more intentional
I’m praying for you fam I hear that a lot
But they don't ever got no time to pray for
Me on the spot
Word to my pops
I be goin through it
And they be going through it
Intentionality with time how you gon' use it
Taking life for granted what a deception
Story of my life, we're headed in one direction
See we're all gon' die, and some people are living dead
And I don't know why some people don't care about'em
They poor on the street, all you do is staring at em
Got nothing to eat, you judging and glaring at em
But what you do for the overlooked and neglected
You do that to the Lord, that's a kingdom perspective
Don't be overprotective with your time like
That ain't worth it, cause that'll get up in your head
Like a brain surgeon
We're called to remove the lie thats a slain serpent
So you can do better even if you ain't perfect
I take my time for granted yeah
No time for friends or family
I don’t wanna regret the time that we spent
Thinking you'll never leave
Let’s reconcile let’s break it down
Let’s be more intentional
Be more intentional
Be more intentional
Family tightened cause everybody was weary
Who’da known
Month later I’d be married
To celebrate and mourn in 4 weeks is pretty scary
Everything is temporary
