It Is What It Is (The Christian Anthem)
I have certainly calmed down with the blogging. I haven't posted a blog in a good two weeks! Anyway, I HAVE AN ANTHEM! lol. It's this song on Kierra Sheard's CD "This Is Me" Here are the lyrics.
Verse 1
Can somebody tell me what's going on now
It seems like there's so much confusion in the streets
I heard somebody ask what happens when you die
That's when I stepped in and said
If you don't know my God
You might go to a place that's burning hot
Then we got into this big argument
That didn't make no sense
But it is what it is
I'm just trying to get you to see truth
There's no truth in what you do
You're simply blind to the fact
That I really got your back
And I ain't gonna lie to you
Chorus
If you think you're living right
I'm the one to tell you that you gotta get it right
If you think that you gon' make it just cause you so nice
I can tell you "no other way" cause
It is what it is.
Verse 2
Now we can sit here and talk about this all day long
And chances are you would still be wrong
You can't tell me nothing about this
Trust me, man, you can't get into heaven without this
It's like I was born on a pew
I know what to do
I really don't understand why it's so hard for you
I will continue every night to pray
But the fact is you gotta be saved
I'm just trying to get you to see truth
There's no truth in what you do
You're simply blind to the fact
That I really got your back
And I ain't gonna lie to you
Bridge
Don't make yout ime on this earth worthless
I just want you to see that you need to be serving
I'm not telling you to live like me, I'm just birthing
Something in your soul, and trust me. It's worth it.
I love this song. Aside from "Why Me," this is my favorite song on that whole CD. cause I can relate like... word by WORD I can relate! This is my anthem as one of God's adopted children, trying to make it so others can become brothers and sisters in Christ.
