Message In The Music

When I was just a kid, my mom was on my back She used to snatch me out of bed on Sunday morning Head to Sunday School then straight to church When the preacher starts, I start yawning I was tired and read' to go I couldn't wait to leave But the choir sang - they were off the chain I started feeling differently They were swinging from side to side Some lady said pass the mic They were singing His praises I cried Felt the spirit take over inside It took over and made me shout I caught myself and tried to close my mouth I let it go and started shouting loud I finally knew what the preacher's talking about I found the message in the music I found the message in the music I found the message in the music I found the message in the music When I was old enough, I used to hit the clubs Me and my girls spent all night partying When I got in the house, finally laying down Couldn't make myself get up on Sunday morning It came to me in a tragedy I needed God to see So I found my way back to the church And the choir spoke to me yeah (Bridge) (Chorus)
