Caleb Gordon Yesterday Is Gone
[Intro:]
Arm's entwined breath in one breath
You and I will touch the sky before the sky is gone
Tommorow is the wisemen
The wisdom just like death and tide like yesterday
And yesterday is gone
[Chorus:]
Yesterday gone, don't think 'bout the past
Didn't know who I was under the mask
It look greener when you look at their grass
Jealousy make you blind to what you have
I never trip, never fall
I get up quick, clever
No, wе won't be here forеver
Walking with God made my principle better
[Verse 1:]
When I was in school, they said I couldn't focus
The teacher would look at me like I was hopeless
Graduated and my eyes opened
Coach said that you had to be chosen
I believed, 'til I looked at Moses
Then I went to read 'bout David and Saul
It ain't about if you gonna be chosen
It's about if you gon' answer the call
[Verse 2:]
I'm bout to ball, John Wall
This life gon' tick, time bomb
Nobody know when he gon' pop out the clouds
Stay ready until the time come
I wanna hear, "Well done"
Just like filet mignon, you never too old, you never too young
Come follow the King, move some
[Chorus:]
Yesterday gone, don't think 'bout the past
Didn't know who I was under the mask
It look greener when you look at their grass
Jealousy make you blind to what you have
I never trip, never fall
I get up quick, clever
No, we won't be here forever
Walking with God made my principle better
[Verse 3:]
You take me up, up and away
Enemy, he tried to lead me astray
Thanking You and I don't know what to pray
Lying, why would I act like the prey?
Free, why would I act like a slave?
Diamonds, maybe it's 'cause of the chains
Live for you, even though I decay
I'm forgiven, so I threw out the shame
[Verse 4:]
Old me gone, David Blane
Know that this life bring major pain
Tell me now, can you stand the rain?
What you know about a Christian? This a new edition
Listen, watch how I ball like a piston
Life is a gift, you better not miss it
Live it, before it's a wrap like Christmas
[Chorus:]
Yesterday gone, don't think 'bout the past
Didn't know who I was under the mask
It look greener when you look at their grass
Jealousy make you blind to what you have
I never trip, never fall
I get up quick, clever
No, we won't be here forever
