A Fool Like Me
JMDee-Beat feat. Tassel & Naturel Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Jika selama ini aku memilih dirimu
Mungkin itu hanya karena keangkuhanku
Jika ternyata kini engkau bukan takdirku
Maka ku yakin Tuhan tau terbaik untukku
Bukan aku tak mau terus pertahankanmu
Namun yang kucari ridha dari Tuhanku
Sehebat apapun ku pertahankan
Takkan pernah bisa kulawan

Segala ketetapan yang Tuhan tuliskan
Ku sadar ini jawaban yang Tuhan berikan
Dengan pasrah engkau ku ikhlaskan
Ku iringkan doa agar kita bahagia
Menjalani semua diatas ridha-Nya
Sehebat apapun ku pertahankan
Takkan pernah bisa kulawan
Segala ketetapan yang Tuhan tuliskan
Ku sadar ini jawaban yang Tuhan berikan
Dengan pasrah engkau ku ikhlaskan

Dengan pasrah engkau ku ikhlaskan
Dengan pasrah ikhlas melepasmu...
