Hallelujah
Finding Redemption in the Melody of Hallelujah
Lyrics
One time for the man in the back seat
Acknowledging someone in the backseat
Two times for the kids at the track meet
Recognizing kids participating in a track meet
Three times for the babies with a heartbeat
Referencing babies with heartbeats
And four times for this fat beat
Appreciating the rhythm or musicality
It's funny though cause I run it like an athlete
Running skillfully like an athlete
Running to the altar with my hands up
Heading towards marriage with enthusiasm
Like I'm running from the cops in a dark street
Feeling pursued or pressured, possibly by troubles
I want to show mercy that's mad deep
Desire to show deep mercy or compassion
My father forgave me and I must reflect that
Reflecting on forgiveness received from a father figure
It's been so hard on my life with this setback
Struggling due to setbacks in life
Love thy neighbor, love thy enemy
Embracing the challenging concept of loving everyone
I can't believe what the Bible is telling me
Expressing disbelief at the teachings of the Bible
Man it's so opposite to all my tendencies
Feeling conflicted due to personal tendencies conflicting with religious teachings
Cause I get angry like I drank the Hennessy
Referencing getting angry or losing control
Judging the world with a mind that is menacing
Judging the world harshly
God please forgive me for constantly blemishing
Seeking forgiveness for tarnishing everything in life
Everything in my life
Surviving tough times despite hardships
Times get hard yet I always survive
Admitting a pessimistic outlook
Pessimistic yeah I know it ain't right
Striving to confess and improve
But I'm trying my best to confess in the light
Starting anew, leaving doubts behind
As I open up a new page
Metaphorically turning to a new chapter in life
The old things have passed
Letting go of past doubts and uncertainties
No more housing this doubt
Experiencing a transformative change
Took me on a new wave
Feeling uplifted and joyous
Now I'm surfing on clouds and I'm singing out loud
Expressing a sense of liberation and joy
Take me out the box in a moment
Desire to break free from limitations
Tell me who is my big opponent
Questioning who or what poses a significant challenge
Cause I think, I know
Contemplating personal growth and self-reflection
When I look in the mirror
Gaining clarity and self-awareness
Things are getting more clearer
Recognizing personal flaws and shortcomings
And honestly, I'm my own worst enemy
Realizing self-sabotage as a major obstacle
So I'm here like fan that is venting
Expressing feelings or thoughts to release pressure
Headspace got too many thoughts but who's renting
Having an overwhelmed mind
Girls on my mind and my neighbor is tempting
Feeling tempted or distracted
Giving me looks now she's hinting
Noticing someone's interest or advances
Man Ima give it up to God
Committing to surrendering to a higher power
And I sing hallelujah like I do it for my job
Expressing gratitude through song
I don't know, if I go back to the old Joe
Concern about returning to a negative past
I'll be hang man by a gold rope
Fearing dire consequences of reverting to old ways
So God please don't leave
Pleading for divine presence and guidance
You know I've been on the ground tryna grow trees
Striving for personal growth
I wanna bear fruit with the gree-green leaves
Desire to bear positive results or outcomes
I've been praying every day for a cool breeze
Consistently praying for relief or comfort
A little bit of rain and my faith goes down
Struggling with faith during challenging times
Help my unbelief change right now
Asking for a transformation of belief
Bless my family, friends, and enemies
Wishing blessings upon everyone, including adversaries
And bless the whole world with holy energy
Desiring to fill the world with divine energy
