Lyrics

You can diagnose darkness

And in the middle of night that's alright

But the one that brings life can prescribe and distribute light

For the love of love, the life of life

For the hope of hope, for the light of light

For the love of love, for the light of light

For the death of death, for the light

I was in all my pain and then you came

Relieved my troubled soul

And into this worn out heart you poured your love

If only you could know

And when you heal me, you reveal me

And I hear you clearly in my song

So if we're leaving, I'll keep singing

So you will still be here when you're gone

Okay, I'm here for the healing, I'm here for the wholeness

I'm here for that feeling that the pit of my soul gets

When me and my loved one in the midst of the closeness

The barriers don't exist, I'm here for the gnosis

I'm here for that medicine, ain't here for no pettiness

I no longer get energy from being competitive

Don't know if it's my second daughter, third baby on the way

Or if it's the fourth decade I met the other day

But I have zero energy or time for what ain't feeding me and mine

I don't cut people off, I redefine

I'm here for the village life, nobody leave the tribe

Here for that intimacy and me you see inside

I'm not here for your opinion, I'm here for your truth

I do hear you, my face full of tears is the proof

I'm here now because nothing else is guaranteed

I'm tryna be here for the people that's here for me

I was in all my pain and then you came

Relieved my troubled soul

And into this worn out heart you poured your love

If only you could know

And when you heal me, you reveal me

And I hear you clearly in my song

So if we're leaving, I'll keep singing

So you will still be here when you're gone

Enter the world of meaning, the sacred, the reason

The state of your being, the place of convening

They say seeing's believing, but that could be deceiving

Depending on which instrument does the receiving

The eye sees the form, the function, the allure, the seduction

Only the healthy heart knows the substance

Your vessel is oh so illustrious but one day you're confronted

With the fact it can only pour what's within

We know the art of truly living is learning how to die

We gon' paint this one, live it in the sky

The twinkle in your eye, the magic and the crackle in your voice

Your quotables attracted to the source

All I want to be known for, my greatest virtue

Is that I learned from you and loved you and served you

And that I belong to you and when I long for you

I can sit wherever I am and write songs for you

I was in all my pain and then you came

Relieved my troubled soul

And into this worn out heart you poured your love

If only you could know

And when you heal me, you reveal me

And I hear you clearly in my song

So if we're leaving, I'll keep singing

So you will still be here when you're gone

For the love of love, for the life of life

For the hope of hope, for the light of light

For the love of love, for the life of life

For the death of death, for the light

For the love of love, for the life of life

For the hope of hope, for the light of light

For the love of love, for the life of life

For the death of death, for the light

When you're gone

Be here when you're gone
