Figured U Out (Tiedye Ky Cover) (Live from CTF Memorial Benefit)

Week 27 of S O M I C O SINGLE SATURDAY comes from Californian teen, @charlesthe-first.

CharlestheFirst // Papers |SSS027|

Unreleased writer’s rehearsal tape for male lead and male chorus. Arrangement intentionally spare leaving room for the right artist’s voice and POV. Tempo, key, and production all flexible. Open to full artist-led reimagining. If this feels like something to make your own, I’m open.

This song centers on the story of Jesus and his disciples out on the lake, caught in a ferocious storm. The disciples fear for their lives until, with a word, Jesus calms the wind and waves. "Where is your faith?" he asks, "Why are you so afraid?" 
"Because we almost died in the wind and the waves!" they answer. 
And they look at each other and ask, "Who is this man, that even the winds and the waves obey him?"

LYRICS

VERSE

JESUS: “Where is your faith? Why are you so afraid?”

DISCIPLES: 

Why? We almost died in the wind and waves!
What is it you want from us - to do or say or think? 
To show how deeply from the well of you… we will drink?

CHORUS

DISCIPLES:

Who are you? 
What did you just say?
One more time - 

JESUS: “The part about ‘the way’?”

DISCIPLES: “Yes!”

Aren’t we still here - each and every day?
Who are you? 
The winds and waves obey. 
Who are you?

VERSE

DISCIPLES: “What is it you want from us?” 

JESUS: “To never be afraid.”

DISCIPLES:

To doubt the things we’ve always known? The choices that we’ve made? 

JESUS: “Yes.”

DISCIPLES:

We’ve spent our lives in boats like this. We’ve gutted through a storm.
We’ve never been so terrified. This is …. not the norm.

CHORUS

DISCIPLES:

Who are you? 
What did you just say?
One more time - 
The part about “the way”
Aren’t we still here - each and every day?
Who are you? 
The winds and waves obey. 
Who are you?

BRIDGE:

DISCIPLES: “When we first met, you said:”

JESUS: “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.”

DISCPLES:

We didn’t ask you to explain or say that part again.
We didn’t ask - though we wondered why - 

JESUS: “Of course you wanted to. You wanted to know everything that was in store, when I said, ‘follow me.’”

DISCIPLES:

Follow you!

CHORUS

DISCIPLES:

Who are you? 
What did you just say?
One more time - 
The part about “the way”
And you’re still here - each and every day.
Who are you? 
The winds and waves obey. 
Who are you?

Source Material:

Matthew 8:23-27 - Jesus Calms the Storm
23 Then he got into the boat and his disciples followed him. 24 Suddenly a furious storm came up on the lake, so that the waves swept over the boat. But Jesus was sleeping. 25 The disciples went and woke him, saying, “Lord, save us! We’re going to drown!”
26 He replied, “You of little faith, why are you so afraid?” Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the waves, and it was completely calm.
27 The men were amazed and asked, “What kind of man is this? Even the winds and the waves obey him!”

Matthew 4:19 - Jesus calls the first disciples

“Come, follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.”

Who are you?

NOBODY

Nobody can write 
The same song 
At the same time 
In the same way 

No heart could ever 
Love you 
The same deep that I do 
Nobody could never be 
Another you 

Some people could tell you 
The future will be 
But you know, present 
Is the only light we see 
You never live another 
Time and place 
That now and here 
Nobody could ever be 
Another you so dear

Nobody, nobody 
Can find an easy way 
To say goodbye 

Nobody, nobody 
Can find an easy way 
To say, to say 
Goodbye 

NOBODY   (En vivo con celular)

Thank you so much for all the support over the past few years. This whole journey has been quite the trip. <3

This is an old track that I've been sitting on for quite some time. Love playing this one out & I figured if I didn't get it out soon it would probably never see the light of day. Enjoy !!
