Eli Wack - Mourning Sunshine Lyrics

We're getting closer to the end
My heart has been revising the definition of a friend
God keeps doing work in me
I wish it were a trend
For people to start worshipping instead of gossiping
Lips are getting looser
While it's words that define us
A youthful generation needs humility
Remind us
Pride is fine as china
Cracks the moment it's offended
And that don't build your character
It leaves you all defensive
Love ain't convoluted
It's perversion of the eyes
If we could talk to love
He'd tell us, "lay down all our lives"
Open up His arms, invite us in as "little child"
But we got so much baggage
We keep tryna bring inside
Tell me why we still dont see that
Earth is temporary?
Came up from the dirt
Then go right back to getting buried
Think it's time to see our lives
As minimal as moments
Ignorance ain't bliss
And waking up is necessary
Wake up and I dread the day
A bad "mourning sunshine"
Murder and injustice always
Seem to make the headline
Love needs more expression
Like the darkness needs the Son light
All this convolution
Make it difficult to run right
Wake up and I dread the day
A bad "mourning sunshine"
Murder and injustice always
Seem to make the headline
Love needs more expression
Like the darkness needs the Son light
All this convolution
Make a youngin' wanna run right
Back to back
I be pacing
Mind is racing
I just spent all of my evening
Separating what is "good' and "bad"
What I need to keep in life
And what I wish I didn't grab
I got so much faults and flaws
I'm tryna make corrections
I'm bleaching all my inner walls
My body keeps objecting
I wanna flee the man I was
But hearing these confessions
Makes me think the man I was
Can't change his old perception
That's uh
Oh that's a messed up way of thinking
The root of what is evil
Is deception in the makin'
The hardenin' of my heart
In the rebellion is forsaken
Everything im meant to be
And giving in to satan
I'm sorry I can't sugar coat
The feeling of my views
The truth aint what really need
It's acting out the truth
We've seen it done by Luther King
We all been set aloof
So in the midst of tribulation
I say "Jesus did it too"
Wake up and I dread the day
A bad "mourning sunshine"
Murder and injustice always
Seem to make the headline
Love needs more expression
Like the darkness needs the Son light
All this convolution
Make it difficult to run right
Wake up and I dread the day
A bad "mourning sunshine"
Murder and injustice always
Seem to make the headline
Love needs more expression
Like the darkness needs the Son light
All this convolution
Make a youngin' wanna run right
