[Intro]
Reporting live from the
Reporting live from the stu
Reporting live from the
Reporting live from stu-u-u-u
Reporting live from stu-u-u-u
Reporting live from the
[Chorus]
In the past, used to get it every other way
Hardly thought, hardly knew and that's wit everythang
Ponder, wishing, praying waiting on a better day
Now we take it up with Yah
It's gon be alright
Been there, done it all buh buh
Alright
Been there, done it all buh buh
Alright
Been there, done it all buh buh
Alright
Been there, done it all buh buh
Alright alright
[Verse 1]
Politicin' bout politics like we politicians
No matter what it is there's grace wit your decision
As we sever division, can't lose sight a the vision
Remember it's Kingdom
Can't spell kingdom without the kin
Remember it's family
Maturity a propensity, evident in navigation
Used to bump the train, every time I hit the station
With no hesitation
Then I remembered my destination
[Chorus]
In the past, used to get it every other way
Hardly thought, hardly knew and that's wit everythang
Ponder, wishing, praying waiting on a better day
Now we take it up with Yah
It's gon be alright
Been there, done it all buh buh
Alright
Been there, done it all buh buh
Alright
Been there, done it all buh buh
Alright
Been there, done it all buh buh
Alright alright
[Verse 2]
Spent some looking for a wife, without knowing the reason
Caught up in the fanfare, man I couldn't believe it
All the chats in real life, man I couldn't delete them
Funny ain't it?
Just tryna be a canvas and watch Him paint it
Trust and let go, I've been learning patience
I pray it's a fruit that shall loom
So I can wear it on my back like it's Year two
And what a year too
Being delivered from ill perspectives, helped me see clearer
That purity is not why I wanted you nearer
I was tryna' paint the picture, I was striving just to get ya
But now I realize I wasn't seeing through God's eyes
Apologies for my disguise
As I reminisce I'm glad it didn't go the way I intended
He broke me down like a grater
His intention much greater
Rather than sorry, we much more safer
[Chorus]
In the past, used to get it every other way (Every other way)
Hardly thought, hardly knew and that's wit everythang (That's wit everythang)
Ponder, wishing, praying waiting on a better day (On a better day)
Now we take it up with Yah
It's gon be alright
Been there, done it all buh buh
Alright
Been there, done it all buh buh
Alright
Been there, done it all buh buh
Alright
Been there, done it all buh buh
Alright alright
[Outro]
Be alright yeah
Be alright yeah
Be alright yeah
Be alright yeah yeah yeah
Be alright yeah (Alright)
Be alright yeah yeah yeah (Be alright)
Be alright yeah
Yeah
Oh woah oh woah
