Divine Devotion: Musiq Soulchild's Spiritual Ode to Love
Lyrics
One Sunday morning I woke up with you on my mind
Reflecting on a Sunday morning, waking up with the person in mind.
Cause I knew later on I'd see you in your glory looking so fine
Anticipation of seeing the person in their glory and looking fine.
Now I could be a little forward and do things to show you how I feel
Considering expressing feelings but hesitating to avoid disrespect.
But I don't want to be disrespectful
Expressing a desire to be respectful in actions and words.
So I just be waiting for the day you try to baptize me with
Waiting for a significant moment, symbolized by a baptism with a kiss.
Your kiss
Desire for a deep, meaningful kiss.
The more I get to know you I hope and pray to
Expressing a hope and prayer to do what's righteous and true in the relationship.
Everyday do whatever's righteous and true
Commitment to righteous actions in the relationship.
Cause your love is so religious
Describing the love as something akin to a religious experience.
And Baby girl don't you know I worship the ground that you walk on, live by your
Expressing deep admiration and devotion, worshiping the person.
Every word 'cause your love is so religious
Reiterating the religious nature of the love.
I want to thank your father for making you on that day
Gratitude towards the person's parents for their role in her existence.
And give blessings to your mother for raising you so heavenly
Recognizing the person's heavenly upbringing and qualities.
Now in my heart I know for certain without an ounce of doubt in my mind
Expressing certainty about the goodness of the person's love.
That I can preach a whole entire sermon just to testify on the goodness of your love
Metaphorically stating the ability to preach about the love's goodness.
The more I get to know you I hope and pray to
Continuing the commitment to righteous actions and prayers.
Everyday do whatever's righteous and true
Reiteration of the commitment to righteousness in the relationship.
Cause your love is so religious
Reaffirming the religious nature of the love.
And Baby girl don't you know I worship the ground that you walk on, live by your
Reiterating devotion and worship towards the person.
Every word 'cause your love is so religious
Stating the religious nature of the love once again.
What I want is your love, take me higher baby, take me higher
Expressing a desire for the person's love to elevate and uplift.
What I believe, you're what I
Belief in the person as essential for a wholesome and good life.
Need to live a life of wholesome and good love
Desire for a life filled with genuine and positive love.
The more I get to know you I hope and pray to
Continuing the commitment to righteous actions and prayers.
Everyday do whatever's righteous and true
Reiterating the dedication to doing what's righteous and true.
Cause your love is so religious
