The Gift Lyrics by Grayskul

Zenith

2013

[Chorus 1: Reva Devito]
This is a gift she said
Don’t you go and lose your head
That’s why they call it the present
This is a mighty task
Don’t look forward don’t look back
That’s why they call it the heavens

[Verse 1: Onry Ozzborn]
You ever wake up right next to that one
And realize the wrong side of the bed is nothing more but a distant memory simply shunned
You stare for a minute in disbelief
Like why me (but why not you), yeah lucky me
Proceed to stretch and have a gander out the window it’s grey out
Not unusual typical Seattle when grays out
Sunshine will peek in here and there
Poking holes in the overcast I guess it’s just a symptom of the atmosphere
But that’s what brought us here and that’s what brought you near
And that’s what’s gonna continue to open up your ears
Those early birds that keep singing to you in morning time
Are not an accident perhaps motivation to get your grind
On and on off the ground out that bed to the sky
Take the future and hold it up high like you alive
Humble but full of pride confident I will lie
Just keep your eyes on the prize and the rest will subside

We just want you to know that you are worth a perfect and deserve everything on this earth so don’t be nervous
It is our service as your neighbors to lend you sugar or watch over your house when you out at town to purchase
Everything with that crest on it because it’s full of that knowledge and perspective that you seekin' ain't it
Therefore be gracious and we’re anxious to have a relationship with you making you want to bustle sacred

[Chorus 1: Reva Devito]
This is a gift she said
Don’t you go and lose your head
That’s why they call it the present
This is a mighty task
Don’t look forward don’t look back
That’s why they call it the heavens

[Verse 2: JFK Ninjaface]
Beautiful isn’t she lovely and thoughtful
Virtuous mother earth flowers and potholes
I was a snot nose so very obnoxious
The oldest of three boys living room most pit
And dealing with the stress with no off switch
Mommy had it bad enough with that too and pop split
They were heartless opposite of partridge fam
See that’s some farfetched malarkey you’re not too bed apartment
(Damn) What a life of hardship
Plans to raise a boy to a man but he’s busy seeking starships
And he’s asking for when land meet the Martians
See momma never thought she'd see the day we'd depart from
Home, where the ocean meets the sand covering starfish
Furthest from the artic there were ants in the tar pits
If only magic carpets exist I’d give my heart to give her this and she can fly upon a wish

[Chorus 1: Reva Devito]
This is a gift she said
Don’t you go and lose your head
That’s why they call it the present
This is a mighty task
Don’t look forward don’t look back
That’s why they call it the heavens
