There For You Lyrics
La la la...la la
Vexation of spirit is a waste of time
Negative thinking, don't you waste your thoughts
Verbal conflict is a waste of word
Physical conflict is a waste of flesh
People will always be who they want
And that's what really makes the world go round
Unconditional love is scarce
("Till shiloh I shall not forsake thee")
Now and forever more
Forever more, forever more...
YEAH!
So I live my life for you...You...
You see, you've always been there for me
And so i'll be there for you...You...
("Till shiloh I shall not forsake thee")
May you rise on the morning when His kingdom come
Good deeds aren't remembered in the hearts of men
(.....Oooooooh)
Bless your eyes and may your dreams come true
May you rise on the morning when Jah kingdom come
Good deeds aren't remembered in the hearts of men
("Till shiloh I shall not forsake thee")
Now and forever more
Forever more...
And so i'll have faith in you...You...
You've always been there for me
And so i'll be there for you...You...
You've always been good to me
Even when i'm not good to myself
You've always been fair to me
Even when i'm not fair to myself
You've always done right by me
So I will do right by you...You...
("Till shiloh I shall not forsake thee")
You've always been there for me, mama
So i'll be there for you, papa
You've always been fair to me, brother
And so i'll be fair to you, sister
You've always had faith in me
And so i'll have faith in you...You..
You've always been to kind to me
You've always stood up for me
You've always been there for me
You've always been...oooooh
You've always been...oooooh
You always did care for me...yeh
You always did share with me...yeh
You always been true to me
And so i'll be true to you...
This is my favorite damian marley song.
I know it seems like a lot of people would blindly say this but i think it might be about his dad, because of "You see, you gave precious life to me So I live my life for you...You..." but it could also mean someone else he loves.
he mentions all the people he loves, including bob
he mentions all the people he loves, including bob
You've always been there for me, mama So i'll be there for you, papa You've always been fair to me, brother And so i'll be fair to you, sister You've always had faith in me And so i'll have faith in you...You..
You've always been there for me, mama So i'll be there for you, papa You've always been fair to me, brother And so i'll be fair to you, sister You've always had faith in me And so i'll have faith in you...You..
Adding to my comment, I'm pretty sure live he says "you've always been good to me, papa."
such a good song!
i think its about Jah, Shiloh is the coming again of Jesus. All the other things he mentions sound spiritual
This song totally reminds me about me. This song has helped me get through those times, in fact I consider this song as one of my life quotes.
Always be faithful and loyal to your loved ones, even if you don't get anything in return. You can't say you didn't love.
beautiful song..love damien.he really delivered on this
CORRECTION: the lyric should read:
May you rise on the morning when Jah kingdom come (may you go to heaven on Judgment Day)
Good deeds ARE (not aren't) remembered in the Heart of Man ("Man" here is literally God; your good deeds will be accounted for in The Judgment)
Phreaking BRILLIANT lyrics, as usual, from a son of a Master who has become a Master in his own right; his songs are so dense with imagery....
In my opinion this is about his relationship with God.
I think this song is flat out beautiful. It sounds to me like it's a tribute to his entire family. "will always be there for you mama...papa..sister..brother."
