Markis Precise, Brother Ali - When You're Gone lyrics

You can diagnosis darkness
And in the middle of night, that's alright
But the one that brings life
Can prescribe and distribute light
For the love of love the life of life
For the hope of hope for the light of light
For the love of love for the life of life
For the death of death for the light

I was in all my pain and then you came
Relieved my troubled soul
And into this worn-out heart
You poured your love if only you could know
And when you heal me, you reveal me
And I hear you clearly in my song
So if we're leaving, I keep singing
So you will still be here when you're gone

Okay, I'm here for the healing
I'm here for the wholeness
I'm here for that feeling that the
Pit of my soul gets
With me and my loved one in
The midst of the closeness
The barriers don't exist
I'm here for the nosis
I'm here for that medicine
Ain't here for no pettiness
I no longer get energy from being competitive
Don't know if it's my second daughter
Third baby on the way
Or if it's the fourth decade
I met the other day
But, I have zero energy at time for
What ain't feeding me and mine
I don't cut people off, I redefine
I'm here for the village life
Nobody leave the tribe
Here for that intimacy in me you see inside
I'm not here for your opinion
I'm here for your truth i do hear ya
My face full of tears is the proof
I'm here now because nothing
Else is guaranteed
I'm trying to be here for the
People that's here for me

I was in all my pain and then you came
Relieved my troubled soul
And into this worn-out heart
You poured your love if only you could know
And when you heal me, you reveal me
And I hear you clearly in my song
So if we're leaving, I keep singing
So you will still be here when you're gone

Enter the world of meaning, the
Sacred, the reason, the
State of your being, the place of convening
They say seeing's believing
But that could be deceiving
Depending on which instrument
Does the receiving the eye sees the form
The function, the allure, the seduction
Only the healthy heart knows the substance
Your vessel is oh so illustrious
But one day you're confronted with the fact
It can only pour what's within
We know the art of truly living
Is learning how to die
We gon' paint this one vivid in the sky
To twinkle in your eye
The magic and the crackle in your voice
Your quotables attracted to the source
All I wanna be known for
My greatest virtue is that I learned from you
And loved you and served you
And that I belong to you
And when I long for you
I can say whatever I am
And write songs for you

I was in all my pain and then you came
Relieved my troubled soul
And into this worn-out heart
You poured your love if only you could know
And when you heal me, you reveal me
And I hear you clearly in my song
So if we're leaving, I keep singing
So you will still be here when you're gone

For the love of love for the life of life
For the hope of hope for the light of light
For the love of love for the life of life
For the death of death for the light
When you're gone be here when you're gone
