Gumbo ft. Shaun Carlo & Tish Lyrics

If the nights bring you sadness

Hope the days bring you peace

You survived through the madness

Hope your love fills the streets

If the nights bring you sadness

Hope the days bring you peace

You survived through the madness

Hope your love fill the streets

My blessings, more abundant than tragedy

Still gotta' slip, block, and duck

I'm from The D

And they come in threes like Big Ben or CP

Hope they never double up like Scottie

We need to breathe, Yo

Can I Live?

Up and at em' and out the crib

Before the birds singing songs

Whistle while I make this bread

Need the tunes to get me through

And boot the devil out my head

Keep me nestled in the moment

Not rummaging through my past, or

Dragging on bout where I'd rather be instead

Plotting million dollar plans

But I need food up in my fridge

And I got babies in my face

That need my time the way I did

When I was holding down the place

And pops was pulling double shifts

I ain't even peep it then

But now I know just how it gets

When your duty and your dreams

Can breed neglect and discontent

Life's a bitch, cause' even if all that you do

Is really rooted in love

It's more to it, but you still gotta' pursue it with love

If the nights bring you sadness

Hope the days bring you peace

You survived through the madness

Hope your love fill the streets

If the nights bring you sadness

Hope the days bring you peace

You survived through the madness

Hope your love fill the streets

Often times I feel like I'm out of the time

That we only granted one time

Better not take your time

Still I rise, Breakfast and grind til' I can recline

I'm tired, I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm strong

Build a home

Fill it with everything that you've longed

And probably lacked when you was little

I can't relax til'

Money as long as the list of my things to do

I'm always on edge

Balance that with infinity pools

Where the views come with floating lunch

While fighting to touch my phone, but I know

Ignoring texts and phone calls feels selfish and wrong

Weight of the oldest keeping me whole

They see when I fold, see when I struggle, See when I'm goals

I'll never give up, long as the sun keep bringing me love

The skin they want me to hate

A spirit they want to break

A family broken, broken

A child who had learned to take

Whatever she's given

Make it feel great

It's the only way

I step up when the fuss come my way

What's "giving up" to a Champion

They throw dirt on your name, but the frame out of Clay

Can't destroy what they ain't build

So, where the cash is?

One step in front of the other, make way

Live to swing, float, move another day

I step up when the

I step, I-I-I step up when the fuss come my way

What's "giving up" to a Champion

They throw dirt on your name, but the frame out of Clay

Can't destroy what they ain't build

So, where the cash is?

One step in front of the other, make way

Live to swing, float, move another day

I step, I-I

Another day,

One step at a time

One day at a time

We got it
