JClay - Forgiveness Lyrics

There's a healing going on
There's a healing, there's a healing going on
Ay

Let's talk
Let's talk about forgiveness
I know we hear it get thrown around a lot
People like, "Man, I'll I'll forgive, but I ain't gone forget"
And then you hold it against the person
For however long you you see 'em
It's something you want
But you're not willing to give it yourself
And you wonder why you feel so divided
Or or alone or by yourself
It's kinda like, hol up I I got you I got you

You let a whole lot of things bother you
You let them same things go and coddle you
You let a whole lot of strings model you
And you let a whole team of gods father you
Let's talk the god of time
Let's talk the god of money
You talk God all the time
But yo gods don't seem abundant
The one that makes peace can't lack it
Value isn't in the money but the person that backs it
Ain't nobody going out they way to see you fall
And if they do, they just furthering in in yo cause
So why you hate these haters that don't hate at all
They just showing you the you to use that could evolve
So now you wanna toss
And now you wanna floss
Slave to these haters
Cuz you trying to prove em false
Yet, hate cannot be real, when everything is love
So why don't you be real, because you are beloved, ay ay ay

It's like
It's like you you you, you're caught in this circle of karma
This karma circle
And you're trying to balance the scales yourself
And then you're perpetuating more karma on yourself
For what you did to try to balance
When you can, you can just neutralize it completely

Every time you judge
You cut in half
Half that makes you happy
Half that makes you sad
The more judgements you finish
Percentage diminished
Of what will bring you joy and always keep you grinning
So now you in a box mad at yo limits
Unaware that this world was made in your image
Trying the play the role that karma plays
That's the only role that your armor plays, man
Forgive and rejoin what was separated
Observe a sinless world that is regulated
By your thoughts and beliefs
For example paying attention to tension gets you no relief
What you focus on will expand
Focus on forgiveness and forgiven you will stand
I know you've tried it all and you know this to be true
But once you've forgiven them, you can forgive you, ay ay ay

And there's a reason why
No matter how strong of a person you feel you are
You, you look for the validation in others
Or you look for someone to kinda mend that, that emptiness
But the truth is we were all meant to be together
Every person is your people, every person
This, this whole thing is a learning experience and
And we make errors in judgment
And we want to be forgive for those
Like we don't want that held against us every interaction
So forgive
I mean it don't matter anyway
I am nobody
I am someone
