Wiser Observer - Christmas Eve lyrics
[Wiser Observer - Christmas Eve lyrics]
Ya ya, ya ya
I won't be home for Christmas
But that's okay
'Cause we won't always be together
But know we have each other
And I see it that way
So it gives me the strength for me to stay
I won't lie, man I miss home
Home sick, break bread over wishbones
Cold tea, TV, Netflix on
Christmas wishlist, but the list gone
So I've got to keep busy
I can't keep drinking to pass the time
And the reason I'm not home is a bit
Of poor planning and a bit of self-sacrifice
So I won't be home for Christmas
But that's okay
'Cause we won't always be together
But know we have each other
And I see it that way
And it gives me the strength for me to stay
Make another wish on a Christmas light
Wish I could see through a Christians eyes
My faith is so rocky but it don't stop me
From praying for my sis and my mama
Everybody got family drama
Baby nephew on the come up
Man I miss the little man
Still remember his tiny fist when
He grabbed my hand almost to say
"Everything's going to be alright"
Little sister had a seizure and
She had to hit me
Up because she felt she almost lost her life
She was like "I could feel myself go
So I needed to show i need you to know
How much I love you"
I said, "Baby sister I know
I've never doubted your soul
You make me feel less alone
You know I love you"
I hate to rap my sisters sickness over here
But don't wait for Christmas just to
Tell your family that you care
'Cause I won't be home for Christmas
But that's okay
'Cause we won't always be together
But know we have each other
And I see it that way
'Cause it gives me the strength
For me to stay
I'm finally at an age where
I appreciate my mama and
The work she did to put me in this place
'Cause as a kid you're blinded by
The things you do not have
An absent father I was really full of hate
The days
We didn't have no water or we had to use the
Candles man I swear it's like
This woman wasn't phased
But now I think about it she had to keep
It together for my sister and for me
The confidence she said
"Everything's going to be alright
We've got God on our side
I've seen a lot worse through my life
So don't whine about no water
Just thank God you're alive"
Now I know I won't be home for Christmas
But that's okay
'Cause we won't always be together
But know we have each other
And I see it that way
'Cause it gives me the strength
For me to stay
Merry Christmas merry Christmas
Merry Christmas merry Christmas
Life's too short to take things for granted
I live for today I can't take my chances
The first time I said "I love you" to
My mother it was awkward
Intentions never landed
But I kept at, yes I kept on
And a couple weeks in, it didn't take to long
Now we say
"I love you" and "I love you too"
Every time when we cut the phone
I won't be home for Christmas
But that's okay
'Cause we won't always be together
But know we have each other
And I see it that way
'Cause it gives me the strength
For me to stay i won't be home for Christmas
But that's okay
'Cause we won't always be together
But know we have each other
And I see it that way
'Cause it gives me the strength
For me to stay
Merry Christmas merry Christmas
I won't be home for Christmas
But that's okay
'Cause we won't always be together
But know we have each other
And I see it that way
So it gives me the strength for me to stay
I won't lie, man I miss home
Home sick, break bread over wishbones

And the reason I'm not home is a bit
