Brent’s “Eden” is soulful R&B track ponders a common observation many have about their Creator; why doesn’t God simply intervene to make the world a better place? With subtle nods to police brutality and hardship, the song wonders whether the Black community’s prayers are going unanswered.
[Verse 1]
Heavenly Father, do you know who I am?
Silver star of Bethlehem
Meso-Garden of Eden
Arrested for treason
Only you Himself could help me now
Held me down, you can't change that now
Police, ain't no policin' until my needs met
No man could decide my fate
[Chorus]
I got on my knees and prayed
Ain't no problems go away
Here in Eden, we're even
And I ain't get no sleep last night
Though I tried and tried and tried
Here in Eden, we're еven
[Verse 2]
Heavenly Fathеr, I know I'm stuck in my ways
Searching for a brighter day
But you can make it better
Why won't you?
Why don’t you? (How do you do with love?)
Send me an angel (Tell me a reason)
[Chorus]
I got on my knees and prayed
Ain't no problems go away
Here in Eden, we're even
And I ain't get no sleep last night
Though I tried and tried and tried
Here in Eden, we're even
