G-Natural, Eric Island - Sunday Squad Lyrics

Ay, what up y'all... this one's for all the homies I used to go to church with
And shared the highs and lows in life, nah mean? Y'all know who you are

You need a Sunday Squad you can go to church with
To share all your joys and hurts with, so that you can
Do life (So that you can do life) and everything is
Alright (Everything is alright)
You need a Sunday Squad spend half the day with
A squad you can trust to pray with, for when you don't
Feel right (When you don't feel right) so everything is
Alright (Everything is alright)

You need a dude like Clarence, a brotha that
Connects with the homies, but also your parents
I mean a solid dude who makes the bombest food
And won't hesitate to show you he's committed and caring (Alright)
And speaking of which, you need Karen (Yeah) she's quiet but
In reality, the queen of hospitality (Yeah)
Also makes food to make your palate scream
But avoids the attention to keep a valid team
Speaking of which, whatever team he on
You need a dude to speak his mind like my man Kyon (Come on)
He won't hold back what he's thinking (Right?)
But if a bully needs a word, he'll give it without blinking
And there's Dave, he can teach you a lesson, about
Being a consistent, non-anxious presence, and
In the same vein, if you hang with Vanessa for
Long enough, her baked goods are gonna bless ya (You know that's right)
You need Jacob, the thoughtful and deeper one (Uh huh)
You need Melvin, who always is lots of fun (Alright)
You need Ariel, always comin' up with plans (Let's go)
You need Eric who can fix anything with his hands (Let's do it)
A squad like this, makes for good fellowship (Uh huh)
Because without it the church would be hella sick (Hella sick)
So if your church don't seem legit
You might need to change up who you're doing it wit'

You need a Sunday Squad you can go to church with
To share all your joys and hurts with, so that you can
Do life (So that you can do life) and everything is
Alright (Everything is alright)
You need a Sunday Squad spend half the day with
A squad you can trust to pray with, for when you don't
Feel right (When you don't feel right) so everything is
Alright (Everything is alright)

Dear Father forgive me 'cause I'm down here strugglin'
Got my back against the wall and my thoughts keep jugglin'
I'm trynna balance the game inside my brain with training
At times I tap into Your source, I feel my soul's vibration
These trials and tribulations that I'm facin' while I'm livin'
Got me trynna live righteous, but they slang criticism
Same folks in the church you find in the streets doin' dirt
Dismiss they discretions and have the nerve to judge my worth
But ain't it nice to know you got a friend in Jesus
When the burden gets heavy and the prayers don't reach us
Can't nobody do it better than Jehovah above
And every time I mess it up He keep on showin' me love
I need a Sunday squad for when them times get hard
Gotta put on the whole armor of God and call a legion to war
If Satan's on my back and I'm under attack (Then what?)
my squad won't second guess, my Sunday squad'll react (That's wassup)

For this verse I ain't saying no names, but certain
People, yo, without 'em then life ain't the same
Sometimes these folks are yelling and mad
But I appreciate the good in 'em as well as the bad
I'm talking bout the church gossip (Uh huh), they might not
Know their behavior is toxic (Well) but maybe they work
For the government (Okay) instead of judging it
They'll resource the need after they uncover it
And that one dude, who struggles with addiction
Knows that bootstrappin' is a capitalist fiction (That's right)
So if he gets clean (Uh huh) and knows the who's who
He'll help others who struggle just like he used to (Yeah)
And that's just a fraction of the pack of
Jills and Jacks and whites and blacks you gotta
Attract to build a faction of compassion in
Action, so you can get some traction
'Cause back then, we was them, they was us, so don't
Discount the squad in the back of the bus, you got a
Choice now (Choice now), it'll determine whether you
Walk fast alone, or far together

You need a Sunday Squad you can go to church with
To share all your joys and hurts with, so that you can
Do life (So that you can do life) and everything is
Alright (Everything is alright)
You need a Sunday Squad spend half the day with
A squad you can trust to pray with, for when you don't
Feel right (When you don't feel right) so everything is
Alright (Everything is alright)

You need a Sunday Squad you can go to church with
To share all your joys and hurts with, so that you can
Do life (So that you can do life) and everything is
Alright (Everything is alright)
You need a Sunday Squad spend half the day with
A squad you can trust to pray with, for when you don't
Feel right (When you don't feel right) so everything is
Alright (Everything is alright)
For when you don't feel right (When you don't feel right)
So everything is alright (Everything is alright)
For when you don't feel right (When you don't feel right)
So everything is alright (Everything is alright)
