Right Foot Boogie

Kris1k - HOP IN DA V

[Chorus]
Creator, lend your spirit, give me might (Give me strength, yeah)
I won't disappear or flee from fight (No, no, I won't run away)
Stand against this crushing, present dread (My head held high against it all)
I won't utter any last farewell, unsaid (No goodbyes, no final call)
This moment won't improve, not ever, ever, ever (Nah, it won't get better, Lord)
Creator, lend your spirit, give me might (Oh, Creator, strength to see)
I won't disappear or flee from fight (Won't fade or flee, just me)
Stand against this crushing, present dread (Facing all this heavy fear)
I won't utter any last farewell, unsaid (No final word, just staying here)
This moment won't improve, not ever, ever, ever (Never gonna improve, hear?)

[Verse 1]
Just surviving, I aspire (Aspire, aspire)
Smoothing out the angst my thoughts inspire (Creases gone, I pray)
Hollow spots where my assurance used to stay (My certainty, it left)
No safe space fills the void I'm now afraid to weigh (Feeling so bereft)
Yeah, I am grounded in this present moment, you see (Uh-huh)
But ICE agents still want to send folks like me to prison, honestly (Oh, Lord)
My past does not define me, I repeat the line (Yeah, I keep repeating)
But my papers ain’t quite straight, Lord, I'm losing time (Clock is ticking, bleeding)
I work hard, put in effort, day and night (Hardest worker, me)
My sweet children, they still shine so bright (My babies, wild and free)
I'm a good person, truly, from my soul (You know I am, you know)
But immigration wants to take my future, take my toll. (Watching my future go)

[Pre-Chorus]
So when they come, those shadows taking hold (When they come for me)
May quiet greet their path, a story to be told (A quiet ending, please)
Yet I pray, for peace I desperately chase (For peace, I chase and yearn)
That I discover calm in my own lonely space (A quiet place to turn)
My spirit's troubled by the past, the way things were (Still haunting me, the past)
If only I'd been stronger, made plans that could endure (Should've built something to last)
Still I pray, for light within this darkening place (For some small ray of hope)
I find some comfort in this current day, with grace (Just trying hard to cope, oh)

[Chorus]

[Drop]

[Verse 2]
Misconstruing, what is real or fake right here (What’s real, what’s fake, Lord?)
That some glimmer of truth is present, standing near (A light that isn't clear)
It helps to picture hope remains, holding me so near, my dear (Hope, just stay so near)
But I know, these burdens are heavy to bear (So heavy, so much to fear)
Old shadows follow wherever I go, the constant fear (Still chasing, always here)
If only I'd been stronger, stood taller than before (Should've been a giant, yeah)
All the words I left unsaid, knocking at my door (So many things to share)
Ego that I failed to shed, weighing on my soul (That pride, it took its toll)
And liberated all my outstretched hands, to make me whole. (Searching for control)
Lord, I think I have cancer, symptoms are so clear (Oh, the pain, it grows)
No insurance, and Medicaid needs documents this year. (Nowhere left to go)
I’ll work until I drop, just to keep my family fed (Till my last breath is spent)
Trump, I voted for him, now he’s turning on my head. (My own vote, a dark lament)
I love my spouse, so much, what am I to do, Lord? (My love, my only plea)
Clarity comes through calm, not chaos, says the word. (But chaos surrounds me)
