Sam FranjiONE - Love First [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Shine, shine, shine, shine
Now’s the time, time, time, time
I was dirt, but now I will rise
So I love first, I come alive and I will

Shine bright shine bright
You know what I really wanna shine like
Not waiting till the times right or waiting till my minds right
When I’m hype and I’m like..
Nah that just leaves them waiting trying to find light
Nah, now come on too many boundaries like down trees
Separate us, politics, religion, opinions
Count me or keep counting
On God to do something without me
Or without you to do something
Do something, don’t count sheep coward
Don’t sleep on love, don’t sleep on power
Because He found me through it
Now it’s all I see around me
Scratch that, what I wanna see
I ain’t playing, when everybody loves
Call it Raymond, that’s our dream


Love first before we take another step
Love first before we take another breath
Love first if you wanna see it all change
Love first if you wanna see my God reign


Shine, shine, shine, shine
Now’s the time, time, time, time
I was dirt, but now I will rise
So I love first, I come alive and I will

Be the change I wanna see, no Gandhi
But my hypocrisy haunts me
And let me see why he loved Jesus but not Christians
It’s beyond me why it took this long we
Gotta love first
Don’t even think just love
Don’t you dare judge first
Wonder how they got here?
See the hold you dug first?
Me, I was hurt
I still do, but I was worse
And you was too, see you no better
But thankfully my God does work
And why we try and segregate sin and the Church?
We separate His children
Like we can’t love or forgive
You forget that you’ve been forgiven?
Everybody’s got a story
Odds are you don’t know it
Maybe we should love like Jesus
And just show it!

Love first before we take another step
Love first before we take another breath
Love first if you wanna see it all change
Love first if you wanna see my God reign

Shine, shine, shine, shine
Now’s the time, time, time, time
I was dirt, but now I will rise
So I love first, I come alive and I will
