Cherry Flava'd Email

Yeah
Hated the fact that I was stressing
Trying to feel my way through
Begging the Lord to help me do my thing
And now it came true
When I was younger, hunger pains
And problems kept me deceived
To think the only way to get ahead
Was mischief and grief, but see
Belief is strange because of the words that we spoke
The email you wrote, I quote, helped a brother to breathe
And please, accept this candy-coated capsule that I offer back
To hold you down in time of need 'cause we’re like family
Only the strong keep it warm in the cold
And leave a cherry flavour when we move on
And it’s like that!
Thank you for the cherry flavoured email
See how, it seems the world is loving me now
Meanwhile, you did me right
Back when your time was right
Seems the prime light shines
And it’s touching me now
The was a time when the world used to punish me
Ain’t nothing good would come to me
I was lonely, and all I wanted was some company
A boy running free because life was still young to me
Then the telephone rang with the news that stumbled me
Staggered for a second, gathered back with a happy laugh
I wanted to scream, held it in, thought my life was bad
If it was before it wasn’t very good in detail
I’ll always love you for that cherry flavoured email
No one can hold me back but me
So tell me what’s up
At 29 I didn’t shine and still I didn’t give up
Now I’m 32, received some news
That told me keep my head up
It’s gon' be okay, just one day
Kick it back to another
When it seems the light gleams
Shining down on your brother
As the world keeps spinning
Time’s ticking on sinners
Cause I’ve been caught up in the worst way
Knew this since the first day, dog
Keep your faith in God
Tomorrow will be your best day
Now Asians, Whites, Blacks
Arabs and Latinos
Quit the hate, come together
Let’s form as one people
Whereas I stare in my mind’s eye
Reflect on things that bother me
No more searching for truth
'Cause all the answers follow me
Thank you for the cherry flavoured email

Back when your time was right

And it’s touching me now
Now just when my ???
My mental block had to start
You popped up in my inbox
You felt I was lost
Gave a cherry for my thoughts
So there’s no wonder
If I reap how I eat
Thank you for the cherry flavoured email
