Matthew in the Middle by j. sula Lyrics

[Intro: Josh Man]
Trapped in the valley of the shadow of death
I been mortally wounded, drew my last breath
But in a flash of light He restored my health
It's God, omnipotent, told me not to fret
So many questions, so little time
Forced to keep guessing and wondering why

[Chorus: Daniel Caesar]
It's a long long
Long long
Journey to the middle
Welcome to the middle
It's a long long
Long long
Journey to the middle
Welcome to the middle, yeah

[Verse 1: Josh Man]
Beethoven plays, the ozone is fading, the end is nigh
The world is ending, only but a matter of time
I close the window, open the curtains to let the sun in
It's blackness though, the earth really hasn't had a run-in
With any celestial body in quite a while
There's a certain sort of calmness to it, that's why I smiled
That's why I smiled and said
[Verse 2: Daniel Caesar]
Amen hallelujah
Amen hallelujah
Is this Heaven or suburbia?
Is this Heaven or suburbia?
Amen hallelujah
Amen hallelujah
Is this Heaven or suburbia?

[Verse 3: Josh Man]
Heaven or suburbia
Look out, they're gonna murder ya
And blame it on suburbia
Make sure no one's heard of ya
It's a funny situation you're a part of
They'll break you down, call you a martyr
I say charge that to my ego
They talking lot of news, but what do he know?
She only know the freedom and the peace and
She a sweet, summer child

[Chorus: Daniel Caesar + Josh Man]
It's a long long
She stay sleeping
Long long
We stay beefing
Journey to the middle
Welcome to the middle
It's a long long
Long long
Journey to the middle
Welcome to the middle, yeah
[Outro: Josh Man]
Welcome to the middle, here where the morals are little
And the kiddies throwing spittle from their mouths
Band play the fiddle
Welcome to the middle
Matthew in the middle
