Sunday
EarthGang feat. J.I.D. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Woke up on a Sunday morning
With a broken head
Woke up on a Sunday morning
In an empty bed
Heard time won't wait for you
Heard life won't take the truth
And if you will
And if you are
Take what you want to
Want to
And if you still
Stand where you are
Say where you want to
Want to go
Left the house
On Monday Morning
With a head up high
Felt the breeze right in my face
Looked straight up in the sky
Heard time is there for you
Heard life will show the truth
And as the days go by
You know that you decide
Which way is right or wrong
And where your soul belongs
And as the days go by
You know that you decide
Which way is right or wrong
And where your soul belongs
And if you will
And if you are
Take what you want to
Want to
And if you still
Stand where you are




Say where you want to
Want to go
