Nappy Roots – Touching the Ground Lyrics

Hip Hop/Rap

Like there was a story in the Bible right
Said when a man took his eyes off God he began to see
Then when he put his eyes on God he, he walked on air
That's Nappy Roots man

Things you may read in a Hallmark card
To lighten your path when it's just too dark
Dear fan named Fizzy, no friend named Fizzy
God will fight your battles when it seems uneven
Ugh, wouldn't repeat it if I didn't believe it
So the race is started, how the hell you gonna finish?

Well, life is a prize, you must be present to win it
And the Lord knows, your boy ain't got perfect attendance
Still I strive, towards that light off in the distance
Believing that, the opportunities are endless
Most of the time, we set our own limits
Use that same power, speak it into existence

Seem like my feet ain't touching the ground
I'm up, and can't nobody bring me down
Music to my soul and I'm loving the sound
Came too far to be turning around
Seem like my feet ain't touching the ground
I'm up, and can't nobody bring me down
Might slow me down but you never gon' stop me
Long as the, long as the good folks got me
Can't nobody bring me down

Yeah, I'm in the zone like everything is going right
Appreciate the fact we all made it home tonight
And I remember days we ain't think we'd make it through

Life's a ride, just enjoying where it's taking me to
And I ain't lying, I was thinking 'bout giving up
'Til I realized all the blessings life's given us
And I just want it when I'm gone they remember us
Circle of friends that's too big for my Google Plus
And I ride like a G down the middle lane
And I learned to find joy in the simple things
If you don't like how I'm grinding go around me
I'm just a stick boy burning on the pine tree

Seem like my feet ain't touching the ground
I'm up, and can't nobody bring me down
Music to my soul and I'm loving the sound
Came too far to be turning around
Seem like my feet ain't touching the ground
I'm up, and can't nobody bring me down
Might slow me down but you never gon' stop me
Long as the, long as the good folks got me
Can't nobody bring me down

I wish and I want and I hope and I pray

I'm thankful that the Lord has allowed me today
Another chance at my life to get right my wrongs

The price that I'll pay just to write a clever song
There's no dollar amount that my accountant can't account for
Every time that I've been down he's helped me out
No one else can see exactly where I would be
If I simply lacked the faith and just did not believe
I would pay the extra cost just to cross the toll
And when I'm forced to meet my maker he can take my soul
See we all gotta go sometime, young or old
And we can live life fast or slow and we still ain't in control

Seem like my feet ain't touching the ground
I'm up, and can't nobody bring me down
Music to my soul and I'm loving the sound
Came too far to be turning around
Seem like my feet ain't touching the ground
I'm up, and can't nobody bring me down
Might slow me down but you never gon' stop me
Long as the, long as the good folks got me
Can't nobody bring me down

Ooh, ooh
Yeah
Can't nobody bring me down
