Lyrics

Every single soul is like a poem, you know It got words No matter where I roam Whoa oh, I know every single soul is a poem It's written on the back of God's hand No matter where I roam Whoa oh, I know every single soul is a poem It's written on the back of God's hand Ya see moms and pops be copulatin' Plantin' seeds and pickin' weeds for another season Another reason for livin' another reason for givin' Another reason for lovin' and tryin' stay out of prison 'Cause everything in life can't be nice And everything you want can't be got But the lessons on beein' patient be causing the pressure to rise And make some people suicidal Oh no, another soul, has lost control We pull him back into the fold He got strung out on the material All the superficial initials upon his clothes They make me wanna go Sprewell Every time I see my family locked in jail The economical can be demoniacal Keep love in your soul No matter where I roam Whoa oh, I know every single soul is a poem It's written on the back of God's hand No matter where I roam Whoa oh, I know every single soul is a poem It's written on the back of God's hand Ya see people are so beautiful in love That's why I'm reminded of life's precious moments Every time I see lovers walkin' by in the park Close my eyes and I stop reminisce To see a little baby suckin' on his mama's milk 'Ey silky smoothness of a lovin' caress holdin' baby to breast And blessin' the world with another to test, test, test Oh yes, oh yes, bom, bom, I'd like to sing a little song Dedicated to the people who would like to sing along 'Cause every little song has little beats and notes Like every little lake has little trees and boats All people deserve a safe and warm home 'Cause every single soul is a poem No matter where I roam Whoa oh, I know every single soul is a poem It's written on the back of God's hand No matter where I roam Whoa oh, I know every single soul is a poem It's written on the back of God's hand I want to show you somethin' beautiful It's lovely, it's lovely It's lovely, it's lovely, y'all Right from the start in a world torn apart A baby's love leaves finger prints upon the heart So many think it but never say it "Why bring a child to this planet full of hatred?" They might not make it like the youngest departed Or worst of all they might become a part of it Involved in it, perpetuating violence, violence And growing up in silence Seein' things they don't know how to deal with And learnin' ways, to try to cope with it Cope with it, cope with it But not lose hope No matter where I roam Whoa oh, I know every single soul is a poem It's written on the back of God's hand No matter where I roam Whoa oh, I know every single soul is a poem It's written on the back of God's hand No matter where I roam Whoa oh, I know every single soul is a poem It's written on the back of God's hand No matter where I roam Whoa oh, I know every single soul is a poem It's written on the back of God's hand No matter where I roam, where I roam, y'all Whoa oh, I know every single soul is a poem It's written on the back of God's hand No matter where I roam, where I roam, y'all Whoa oh, I know every single soul is a poem It's written on the back of God's hand I want to show you somethin' beautiful Livin' thing, livin' thing is beautiful Livin' thing, livin' thing is beautiful Livin' thing, livin' thing is beautiful Livin' thing, livin' thing is beautiful
