Kente Praise.By Abusteve

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I woke up with grace on my skin Sun hit the floor, I stepped right in Mama said, "Boy, keep your head up high" Now I carry that fire in my eye Market bells and the morning drum My people sing when the hard days come I seen tears turn gold in the rain Same old road, but we praise through pain [Pre-Chorus] Lift me up, don't let me fall Hear the roots when they call If I got breath, I got more to give This joy in my chest is the way I live [Chorus] Kente praise, kente praise We go dance through the days Kente praise, kente praise God keeps making a way Oh oh, we rise Oh oh, we rise Kente praise, kente praise We go dance through the days [Verse 2] My brother came home with a scar and a smile Said, "I walked through fire, but I stayed awhile" Child in the doorway, barefoot, bold Laughing like heaven was made of gold We split the bread and we shared that plate Even the heavy heart can learn to wait When the night get long, and the world get loud I throw my hands up and I sing out proud [Pre-Chorus] Lift me up, don't let me fall Hear the roots when they call If I got breath, I got more to give This joy in my chest is the way I live [Chorus] Kente praise, kente praise We go dance through the days Kente praise, kente praise God keeps making a way Oh oh, we rise Oh oh, we rise Kente praise, kente praise We go dance through the days [Bridge] [Organ swell] When the load was heavy, You held me close When I had nothing, You gave me hope Now my hands up, my voice stay clear I been carried all year, all year [Chorus] Kente praise, kente praise We go dance through the days Kente praise, kente praise God keeps making a way Oh oh, we rise Oh oh, we rise Kente praise, kente praise We go dance through the days
