Songtexte God's Work - James Noble

Yo!

This a note I thought of in honour of Single Mamas
Left to heal the trauma involved when children are fatherless
And the opposite, y'all fathers on top of it
But your efforts going unnoticed like you anonymous
And as for trauma, love to first responders
Paramedics come across scenes straight outta Contra
Deal with slaughter and daily struggles unthought of
Don't know how you do it, y'all like the bravest of conquerors

We ain't 'bout the perks, man this is God's Work (whoa-oh-whoa)
We ain't 'bout the perks, man this is God's Work (whoa-oh-whoa)
Though the job hurts, homie this is God's Work

Next in line, I need to offer acknowledgment
Those who underpaid, involved in teaching and scholarship
Feed the seeds of future leaders and doctors
They don't seem to profit the urge for leaving is constant
But someone needs to step if we real 'bout beating the darkness
Stand and be a beacon despite the bleeding and losses
There's a league of honour, they don't be needing a dollar
Doing Heaven's work, when it hurts, they heed the Father

We ain't 'bout the perks, man this is God's Work (whoa-oh-whoa)
We ain't 'bout the perks, man this is God's Work (whoa-oh-whoa)
Though the job hurts, homie this is God's Work
On the real fam, this is God's Work (whoa-oh-whoa)
We ain't 'bout the perks, man this is God's Work (whoa-oh-whoa)
Though the job hurts, homie this is God's Work (whoa-oh-whoa)

Some who open to working to heal the broken and hurting
See no hope, and no purpose to throw their souls into service
Maybe took the leap just to meet an ocean of serpents
Wolves playing as sheep, there's no greater pain to defeat
So being hopeful is worthless, I hear that

Gave a quarter of your life hard to get those years back
Wanna bring the light but can't hold the tears back
But the fight is not in vain so no need to fear that
Even though appears that, all the top economists
Only call for rain with a chance of greed and politics
Leaders who deceive only serve their need for prominence
It's on you and I, need to unify the populace

Rally soldiers like Optimus, we won't stop here
This the home stretch, homie we in top gear
International defence, let me make the job clear
In the war for hearts, you're the tip of God's Spear

Yeah, you are not the rear fam this is God's Work (whoa-oh-whoa)
We ain't 'bout the perks, man this is God's Work (whoa-oh-whoa)
Though the job hurts, homie this is God's Work (whoa-oh-whoa)
On the real fam, this is God's Work (whoa-oh-whoa)
We ain't 'bout the perks, man this is God's Work (whoa-oh-whoa)
Though the job hurts, homie this is God's Work

Love to the single mom trying to feed the children
Love to the folks nursing people in their illness
Love churches fighting for the people not the buildings
Airtight credentials, downright essential
Love to the honest cop shielding all civilians
Firefighters stepping to the plate if it kills them
Fire doesn't make a hero homie it reveals them
Airtight credentials, they're downright essential

Whatever your service
Can't measure role you have purpose, ta da, ta da
Whatever your service
Can't measure role you have purpose, ta da, ta da
Whatever your service
Can't measure role you have purpose, ta da, ta da
