O.B.A. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We gotta pull through for each other
What's the point of joy if it's not shared
What's the point of joy if it's not shared
We celebrate the King who was born
It's a wonderful time of the year
With happy greetings yeah
And people meeting woahhh
Oh jubilation
Oh celebration
Oh jubilation
Unto us (Unto us), a child is born (A child is born)
Unto us, a son is given
He came to show the way to live victorious
I am saved
Ohh! Christ is born
You do it again and again, and you came in to switch up the game
Coz you decided to go in denial, forfeiting your freedom to go through the pain
It's why I'm gon turn up
We gon party, get it started
I'm delighted, give you credit coz it matters
Pouring a Bacardi in a shot
Let us cheers to the fact that we got it on a platter
Oh celebration
Oh jubilation
Oh celebration
Oh jubilation
You're the reason for the season
We be chilling coz it's freezing
It's a certain type of feeling
And it brings with it a healing
I be dreaming of a golden Christmas and the lights
Where I hear a lot of singing, and the bells will be ringing
And I'm always gon rejoice
Giving praises to our God
For the day that you were born
Amma shout out to your mom
Coz our lady took the call
And agreed bear a seed
Who had grown to save us all
Oh celebration
Oh jubilation
Oh celebration
Oh jubilation
Suddenly an Angel appeared
Told her she was gon have son
Said you gon name him Jesus
He gon be the savior of world
Said you gon give a sign
And it was star, they were following along
Bringing in gold, silver, and myrrh
He gon lead us where we all belong
