Lyrics Green Leaves - Raheem DeVaughn

Life
Life is about evolving and growing
Elevating
Constant growth
Like green leaves
I dedicate this to the children

Mama told me a wise man leads and never takes orders[?] to follow
And what′s done right here in the
Here and now, always affects tomorrow
It's like, cause and effect, simple mathematics, like 1 plus 1 makes 2
See the bed that we make,
That′s where we got to lay, so be wise of the path we choose
And keep growing

Keep growing (Keep on growing, yeah)
Keep growing (Oh, keep growing, growing)
Keep growing (Keep on growing, keep on growing)
Keep growing (Like)
Like green leaves

To have it you got to see it, to talk it you got to be it
There's no if, no ands, or buts
If you claim it you can attain it, what was made shall be,
And that's the law of the universe (That′s the universal law)
Shine on your light, use insight, and remember you′re a precious gift
(You are precious)
Take the good with the bad,
The tears with the laughs, and always be positive
And keep growing

Keep growing (Oh, keep growing now)
Keep growing (Keep on, keep on, keepin' on, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Keep growing (Growing, growing, growing)
(Keep on growing) Keep growing (Keep on growing like green leaves)
Like green leaves (Keep growing)

Hey, I know it gets hard sometimes,
But (I know it gets hard, keep on growing)
Gotta keep your head up, you know? (Keep growing)
There′s always (I know it gets hard sometimes)
There's always sunshine after the
Rain (Hey girl, keep on growing, yeah)

(Keep growing) (′Cause it's gonna be) Hey sister, girl
My brother on the corner (Hey you, brother man)
(My man) Yeah, you (Keep on growing, yeah)
It′s gonna be alright (Keep growing) (Growing)
You just gotta keep growin' (Like green leaves)
(Green leaves) Like green leaves
