| Lyrics: | Regina Bell harmonizing while DMX speaks]
What good is it..
for a man to, gain the
world..
yet lose his own soul, in the process?
[Bell] God loves you, yes he does
Said you're alright with him
[DMX] I wonder..
Chorus: Regina Bell
(repeat 2X)
I know you never seen him but don't fight with him
You're gonna
make it through the night to the light with him
Uhh, you're alright with him
I said
you're alright with him
[DMX]
I'm callin out to you Lord, because I need your
help
See once again I'm havin difficulty savin myself
behavin myself, you told me what
to do, and I do it
But every and now and then, gets a little harder to go through it
Losin friends, day by day
I'm in so much pain when I'm here Lord, please take me away
I put you here to do a job, and your work ain't done
To live is to suffer, but you're still
my son
And there will be a time when you shine as bright as the stars
But there won't
be a, his or hers, just ours
Then you'll see what I've been tryin to show you, all these
years
Do the right thing; cause after the tears, come the cheers
I will, my Lord, with
my heart, and my soul
That's gonna be how I roll, from now until I'm old
Lead and I'll
follow, you take away the sorrow
I'ma sleep on what you said and holla back tomorrow
Chorus
[DMX]
I want you to know Lord, that for what you've given me I'm
thankful
Sincerely, from the bottom of my heart, I'm grateful
You gave us power in our
words, so I think before I speak
And that way when I speak, they know I'm here to teach
Can't tell em nothin wrong, cause I love em too much
I reach a lot of people, and
Lord, I'm lovin the touch
But deep inside, I've got somethin that's workin against
everything I know is right, what I know makes sense
That's when you must fight harder, than
you've ever fought before
cause what you've got goin on inside you is a war
between
good and evil, be careful of those who wanna be you
They smile, but are not really happy when
they see you
Be careful of the ones that always wanna get you high
Cause when the time
comes, that one'll let you die
Listen to me! I'm here, but I can only help you
if you want me to help, what do you want for yourself?
Chorus
[DMX]
My Lord, my saviour, don't judge my behaviour
but instead, take what's in my heart and
put it in my head
See I guess I really never knew, how proud I made you
My life is
yours, my soul I gave you
I don't know if I'll do good enough (he's by your side)
And
we both know the hood is rough (right by your side)
Sometimes I don't know what to do (X, dry
your eyes)
But I know what I gotta do (it'll be alright)
You keep givin me the word,
and I'll put it to song
Talk to me, I'll talk to them, and we can't go wrong
This is
the start of somethin strong, and this is just the start of it
Praises to you my Lord, for
lettin me be a part of it
I was that kid that, been there, did that
Became ashamed so
I hid that
But, ain't no longer with that
Use me as an example - if I can do, then
they can too
With the Lord behind us, there ain't nothin that we can't do
Chorus
[Regina Bell]
He's by your side
Right by your side
X, dry
your eyes
cause it'll be alright
Yeah, he's by your side
Right by your side
X, dry your eyes
Cause, it'ssssssssss gonna be alright
Yeah yeah, yes it
isssssssssss |
