jelani malik - circles lyrics
[verse 1]
every now and then
i sit and think back on the day
when i was a youngin’
calling books but i ain’t gotta spade
i was so caught up painting thoughts and dreams
that don’t mean much to me
but i had to face reality
that wasn’t the plan you had for me
so every night before i sleep
i thank the lord for blessing me
cause of the battles that i’ve seen
i been the only referee
had to increase my patience
and release what’s not meant for me
had to believe in god
and know that i am finally free
[chorus]
you know i been running running in circles
trying to get it my way
i wasn’t becoming loving myself
it’s like i’m stuck on replay
but your love
is so real
so pure
i stand still
you know i been running running in circles
trying to do it my way
i wasn’t becoming loving myself
it’s like i’m stuck on replay
but your love
is so real
so pure
i stand still
in faith cause
you know you
keep blessing me
you keep testing me yeah
[verse 2]
the five fingers that claim death
tried to play me
every step that i turned for resolution
end up fading
and the only thing that became clear
is i was trying oh so hard
to fill some voids so real
but you took my hand
slowed me down enough to see
the voids that need that filling
start with g o d
ain’t no other thing
got the upper hand on thee
just keep pruning this branch
and eventually i’ll see that
[bridge]
your love
is so real
so pure
i stand still
your love
is so real
so pure
i stand still
[chorus]
you know i been running running in circles
trying to get it my way
i wasn’t becoming loving myself
it’s like i’m stuck on replay
but your love
is so real
so pure
i stand still
you know i been running running in circles
trying to do it my way
i wasn’t becoming loving myself
it’s like i’m stuck on replay
but your love
is so real
so pure
i stand still
you know you
keep blessing me
you keep testing me yeah
