[Verse 1: Rel McCoy]
Been tryna say it for a minute now
But overcome with emotion and tears, over these years I couldn’t get it out
Now how I spit it’s like, something I can’t live without
To look above for the love and try to live it out
For the times I was locked in my stages of doubt
And you showed me the way out
Now there’s scripts on my lips and praise in my mouth
Could have taken the safer route
Say the name of the Saviour and these haters will try to fade you out
The notion right here is to overwrite fear and float
This noble idea to an ocean of ears
And really I’m just hoping you hear
You already know, for you and I both it could be over this year
Now that’s a sobering thought
Knowing my coping mechanisms are broken showing a loss
Gave up the weed ghost with a choke and a cough
More moderate with bottle
Maybe praise will take its place and break me off of the sauce
So what you think?
[Chorus]
Yeah, now I could say it, with no shame
And I’mma say it again
Hallelujah, yeah
Hallelujah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 2: Die-Rek]
Brotherhood is not a colour, nor is it a blood line
See my true colours If a brother try to touch mine
I’ve crossed the line but the race is not finished
Hand-picked cotton, now they labeling me privileged
His grace is sufficient, they mask us as haters
I won’t lose the vision, ask Paul, He is greater
Hallelujah, Praise ye the Lord
How they so diverse and they move in one accord?
Gotta be the blood, what’s left for me to say
Believers up North live it through our D-N-eh
I pray I see the day, that coming of change
The only begotten, the truth and the Way
That price was fully paid, YHWH for President
I told you the future, you’re welcome, don’t mention it
Father forgive me, I know just what I do
Heaven’s mentality, I’m living just for you
Now I shout it, “Hallelu....”
[Chorus]
Yeah, now I could say it, with no shame
And I’mma say it again
Hallelujah, yeah
Hallelujah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 3: Rel McCoy]
And if I said it then I meant it for real
Don’t blindly bump the manifestation, my man
You could read it in braille
I used to carve out these lines to be sharp for the sale
My point was the selling point but marks marketing failed
Yet and still, I feel the wind moving in my sails
I got the scars from the wound trying to harpoon the whale
But this time, the net, won’t get it twisted
My objectives are more higher than I when I was lifted
I give thanks for the anchor I got
When it drops, I’m hands off, deep calls unto deep
But some are shallow as a sand box
And landlocked souls lost today
With a simple John Hancock are washed away
For my conscience sake, cautious of the dotted lines
Rhyming from heart, not tryna modify ’em to see dollar signs
It’s not a crime to be paid, a worker’s worthy of his wage
But I’m indebted praying God himself could hear me say
[Chorus]
Yeah, now I could say it, with no shame
And I’mma say it again
Hallelujah, yeah
Hallelujah, yeah, yeah, yeah
