If You've Got a Gift
Your always wondering where the bullseye lies
You should look up because it's living in the sky
Don't criticize what you don't understand
The gift you get ain't yours but it's under your command
So
If you've got a gift you gotta give it
That's what my old man said
If have that luck you better live it
Cause you can
And if you've got a song then you should sing it
In your own secret key
Cause you can be the words the people speaketh
And then you set em free
Break out of that — habit
Baby sell your clothes
You gotta shed some loaves
You've got a heavy load
You mind is suffocating (It's locked)
You can't rock back in your chair — right now
Right now
If you've got some love then you should give it
Down to the women in red
Don't tempt yourself with tribulation
Self doubt is all you'll get
If you've a gift you've gotta give it
That's what my grandpa said
If you have that luck you better live it
Not locked up inside your head
Stop giving — in right now
And I can show you how
I know you'll never know
You mind is suffocating (it's locked)
You can't rock back in your chair — right now
Right now...
If you got something to say then you should say it
Or else you might forget
If you want someone you gotta do something
You have and others don't
You better stop — saying
That you're too old
That you sold your soul
To wear a nine to five dress code
Don't lie you say
Life's unfair
But what — should we care anymore
At all
You should look up because it's living in the sky
Don't criticize what you don't understand
The gift you get ain't yours but it's under your command
So
If you've got a gift you gotta give it
That's what my old man said
If have that luck you better live it
Cause you can
And if you've got a song then you should sing it
In your own secret key
Cause you can be the words the people speaketh
And then you set em free
Break out of that — habit
Baby sell your clothes
You gotta shed some loaves
You've got a heavy load
You mind is suffocating (It's locked)
You can't rock back in your chair — right now
Right now
If you've got some love then you should give it
Down to the women in red
Don't tempt yourself with tribulation
Self doubt is all you'll get
If you've a gift you've gotta give it
That's what my grandpa said
If you have that luck you better live it
Not locked up inside your head
Stop giving — in right now
And I can show you how
I know you'll never know

You can't rock back in your chair — right now
Right now...

Or else you might forget
If you want someone you gotta do something

To wear a nine to five dress code
Don't lie you say
Life's unfair
But what — should we care anymore
At all
