Nahkeem - Ms Marva (Amazing Grace) (feat. YasmineEmani) Lyrics

Ms Marva, Ms Marva, Ms Marva, It's your grandson speakin'
Sometimes I have flashbacks to them days
At the apartment complex, Offa' Alameda, Right offa' 225
Oohwee, I can see it now
You and my father at the table playin' phase 10, Y'all would get down
I couldn't even sit around the table, That was grown people bidness'
Marva, I can smell it now
Chitlins fogging up the apartment, Gospel playin' in the background
I can hear it now, now, now
(Oouuu, mmh, mmh, mmh, mmh, mmhmm)
(Ms Marva)
Ms Marva, I'm marvelous, I'm feelin' marvelous
I'm screamin' I love ya, I love ya, From a thousand miles away (Way)
I'm just hopin' you hear me, I finally found my grace (Grace)
I finally found it, I finally found my way (My way)
My way to the other side, I was lost up in the shade (Lost)
Caught up in pride, I don't know why, I thought I was bigger than my name (Thought I Was big)
I danced with the devil, I tried to wrestle, 'Till I just went burnin' up in flames (In flames)
Ms Marva, Where do I even begin?
When I jumped up off the porch, Slipped, And fell up in the streets? (Streets)
Ms Marva, I been tryna right all my wrongs
But if I wrote down my sins with a pen, I'd be runnin' out of ink
Ms Marva, I know I been hard to reach... (I know, I know, I know)
But baby forgive me, I just been caught up doin' me (Caught up doing me)
Ms Marva, If you wonderin' where I've been
I just been findin' me, Now I'm finally free...
Ms Marva, Ms Marva, Ms Marva, I'm marvelous (I'm marvelous Marva)
Words can't explain it, But baby, It feel good (I feel it, I feel it, I feel it)
My focus on what's meant for me (Uh huh)
Real protective of my energy (Yes mam)
I think I found my inner peace, Found my inner beast
(Oaahhh, Oaahhh)
Ms Marva, I'm marvelous, I'm feelin' marvelous
But if I said I was fine all the time, That's simply the farthest from the... truth
Sometimes I like to be alone, With my thoughts up on the... roof
Sometimes I get in my feelins', When I walk up off the stage
Right when the curtains close, Straight from high to low, And get to feelin' somethin' strange
Sometimes I get down, When people around, 'Cause I don't know if they're here to stay
'Cause I lost my brudda, Back in the summa', I still don't know if I'm okay... (Know if I'm Okay)
Ms Marva, Hug your baby one more time... (One more, One more time)
And make me a promise, You won't let go until I burst... (Don't let go!)
Ms Marva, I'm so tired of hidin' my hurt... (I'm so tired)
I tried to bury my feelins', And ran up outta' dirt... (Ran up outta' dirt)
Ms Marva, I been around and around... (Around and around and around)
I done found me some trouble, But still, Can't find my way to church... (Find my way to Church)
Miss Marva, Don't let my heart freeze cold...
Wrap me around your arms, It's a fire in your place... (Fire in your place)
Ms Marva, Is it okay to cry? (Is it okay?)
Is it okay to cry, Is it okay to shed a tear? (Ouuwoah)
Ms Marva, I don't want no more goodbyes... (No, No, No)
Why all of the people that I love, Seem to disappear? (Disappear)
(Ohh, ohhhh, ouahoo, oohhh, ohahaoo)
