Lyrics to “Testify” by Eshon Burgundy
[Hook:]
Night time I see diamonds in the sky
Day time I see sunlight shining bright
If I’m alive how can I not testify
Of your love your love your love[Verse 1:]
They want me to fake it til’ I make it
I can’t
Praying while embracing everything
That i am
Reading and reshaping every thought
In my brain
Suffer for righteousness and in light of this
I profit from pain
I’m blessing the people behind closed doors
God set me on fire for these
Cold wars
Lord make my desire for your Kingdom only
And if I ever change promise me
You’ll let them see I’m phony
Convict my family
Bring salvation to my homies
Divorcing every wicked thought
We was in matrimony
Keep me from ever bringing shame
Anywhere near ya name
Keep me from going if someone will fall because I came
I forsake the love of money and all
Expensive things
Turn my attention to the hungry
And never live in vain
Laugh when something taken from me and never state my claim
When I die I’m taking nothing but my soul
With me
This drug money can’t go with me
Simple and plain[Hook:]
Night time i see diamonds in the sky
Day time i see sunlight shining bright
If i’m alive how can i not testify
Of your love your love your love[Verse 2:]
There’s a reason God blessed me
With a second thought
My 1st one ain’t always right
Gotta finesse it off
I’m reading 2 Corinthians chapter 10 & 5
Start over like the 40 days that caused the earth to die
Lord give me the capacity of genius mind
Followed by the sincerity of an lonely child
I’m known for saying passionately
Lord I mean this!
Then I passively pass it up
When it’s going down
Whenever you’re around
No one drowns
Help me not live like a coward in these careless streets
And make an excuse for why I don’t obey you when you speak
I know that I must’ve sown these things therefore so I reap
Whether on purpose or unintentionally
The common factor is me
The haunting thought of gnashing teeth
To the promises of the cross
That’s made for all who would believe
I said God why would you make yourself available to me
He said look
You see us talking
This is all I’ve ever wanted it to be[Hook:]
Night time i see diamonds in the sky
Day time i see sunlight shining bright
If i’m alive how can i not testify
Of your love your love your love
