Beatitudes

Beatitude, this is the gospel truth

This is the beatitude, this is the gospel truth

This is the beatitude, this is the gospel truth

This is the beatitude, this is the gospel truth

This is the beatitude, this is the gospel truth

This is the beatitude, this is the gospel truth

I'm not a gambling man, understand

With this life you gotta know what's wrong and right

This is the city of the lights, yeah

London town waking up the world

I gotta get on a train, I don't mind

Where it takes me, I'm just ready for the mission

There's no division in life, I bring the light

Now come on, are you ready?

This is the beatitudes, this is the gospel truth

This is the beatitudes, this is the gospel truth

This is the beatitudes, this is the gospel truth

This is the beatitudes, this is the gospel truth

Oh-oh-yeah, oh-oh-yeah, oh-oh-yeah

I'm sick of messing up

You know I'm losing my grip, you know I lost my touch

And now I'm coming back to reach, you know I got the crown

And I'm never gonna pass it on or lay it down

You gotta fight me on the ladder as I'm coming up

Sweet Jesus gonna help me and I'm cracking up

I take the Buddha to the middle and I'm back again

My gnosis, the process is electrifyin'

Yeah, know ya, I'm renown, yeah

It's the beatitudes, yeah, the gospel truth

This is the beatitudes, this is the gospel truth

This is the beatitudes, this is the gospel truth

This is the beatitudes, this is the gospel truth

Oh-oh-yeah, oh-oh-yeah, oh-oh-yeah, oh-oh-yeah

Oh-oh-yeah, oh-oh-yeah, oh-oh-yeah

Sick of messing up

Sick of losing my faith but now I got the touch

Oh Lord, take me away from this pain and shit

I'm sick of losing my mind but I can see through it

Come on and set my sail to the sunshine

Oh God, let's see, knowing the error of mine

This is the river of life and now I'm sailing fast

I'm jumping up and I'm out, I'm like a fish with legs

Yeah, put it together

It's the beatitudes, this the gospel truth

This is the beatitudes, this is the gospel truth

This is the beatitudes, this is the gospel truth

This is the beatitudes, this is the gospel truth

My-my-yeah, my-my-yeah, my-my-yeah, my-my-yeah

My-my-yeah, my-my-yeah, my-my-yeah, my-my-yeah

Oh, alright, oh, alright, these are the beatitudes, oh yeah

I know the gospel truth, oh-oh-yeah

This is the beatitude, oh-oh-yeah

This is the gospel truth, oh-oh-yeah

This is the beatitudes, oh-oh-yeah

This is the gospel truth, oh-oh-yeah

Is that the beatitudes?

This is the beatitude, this is the gospel truth

This is the beatitude, this is the gospel truth

This is the beatitude, this is the gospel truth

This is the beatitude, this is the gospel truth

This is the beatitude
