Message In the Music

When I was just a kid, my mom was on my back She used to snatch me out of bed on Sunday morning Head to Sunday school then straight to church When the preacher starts, I start yawning I was tired and read' to go I couldn't wait to leave But the choir sang, they were off the chain I started feeling differently They were swinging from side to side Some lady said, "Pass the mic" They were singing his praises I cried Felt the spirit take over inside It took over and made me shout I caught myself and tried to close my mouth I let it go and started shouting loud I finally knew what the preacher's talking about I found the message in the music I found the message in the music I found the message in the music I found the message in the music When I was old enough, I used to hit the clubs Me and my girls spent all night partying When I got in the house, finally laying down Couldn't make myself get up on Sunday morning But It came to me in a tragedy I needed god to see So I found my way back to the church And the choir spoke to me, yeah They were swinging from side to side Some lady said, "Pass the mic" They were singing his praises I cried Felt the spirit take over inside It took over and made me shout I caught myself and tried to close my mouth I let it go and started shouting loud I finally knew what the preacher's talking about I found the message in the music I found the message in the music I found the message in the music I found the message in the music I found the message in the music I found the message in the music I found the message in the music I found the message in the music I found the message in the music I found the message in the music I found the message in the music I found the message in the music
