Lyrics

[Intro: 1K Phew & Datin]
Eager to fall, call when you need me (GOM)
Need this no more, it’s a new season (116, Menace Movement)
Leaving ’em all, now we can breathe in (1K Phew, Wande, Datin)
In (Yeah!)

[Chorus: 1K Phew & Wande]
You know, you ain’t gotta stay down there (Down there)
But the hate can stay down there (Down there)
If you can’t love, then go somewhere (Uh, yeah, you better go away)
You ain’t gotta stay down there (Down there)
But the hate can stay down there (Down there)
If you can’t love, then go somewhere (Let’s go)
Color purple had to fight all my life (All my life)
Color purple had to fight all my life (All my life)
Let em know I had to fight all my life
Fight all my life and I’m still here
Color purple had to fight all my life (Oh)
Had to fight all my life (Oh yeah)
Had to fight all my life (Yeah) and I’m still

[Verse 1: Datin]
They’re all in my face with their hate and aggression
And it’s putting my faith to the test
And I can stop and catch a fade and it’s tempting
But God is love and we’re made from His essence
He a witness and gave us a weapon
Using love as a way of deflecting
All the hate that they would spray my direction
Instead of catching a fade, I would bless them, yuh
We fight hate with love so that makes us dangerous
‘Cause we kill ’em all with kindness fully loaded aimed at us
We fight fear with faith, so we’re all fearless and brave
We’re not scared of all your threats
We will not run, we’re here to stay, yeah, yeah
We fight lies with truth, this Bible’s tried and true
Inside there’s jewels that can guide a fool to Christ
My life’s the proof, my mind’s renewed
With insightin’ views, these vipers blinding youth, disguising clues
And they try to hide that Jesus died for you, yeah
The devil fights tooth and nail but then again truth prevails
So you can tell him, “you have been doomed to fail
You choose to review truth and tell
Used to do what you do, rebel
But, you lose ’cause it’s who knew you well”
New school, like I’m cuckoo I yell
Shoo fool, He rebukes you to Hell (Tell ’em Phew)

[Chorus: 1K Phew & Wande]
You know, you ain’t gotta stay down there (Down there)
But the hate can stay down there (Down there)
If you can’t love, then go somewhere (Uh, yeah, you better go away)
You ain’t gotta stay down there (Down there)
But the hate can stay down there (Down there)
If you can’t love, then go somewhere (Let’s go)
Color purple had to fight all my life (All my life)
Color purple had to fight all my life (All my life)
Let em know I had to fight all my life
Fight all my life and I’m still here
Color purple had to fight all my life
Had to fight all my life
Had to fight all my life (Yeah) and I’m still here

[Verse 2: 1K Phew]
I was already tired of the fronting
Then you kicked us away like the punt team
Every week you finessin’ ’bout something
So confused, I don’t know what you’re wanting
Every Sunday you saw me and hugged me
Then you played my whole family like rugby
Man I thought that your living was lovely
When you showed me your heart, it was musty
Maybe, I’m dreamin’, it must be (Must be)
Let me imagine, yeah
Okay now time to go proceed (Proceed)
I’m ’bout to go dummy
Ain’t no takin’ it from me
One more time, ain’t no takin’ it from me (One more time)
At the bottom, it used to be raunchy
Now, I feel like the King of Jumanji

[Verse 3: Wande]
Talkin’ ’bout love, that ain’t no feeling
Gotta have trust but you didn’t hear me
I see the pain, you had a fire to ya
They took advantage, they lied to ya
All of your lyin been, building these walls thinking life was it
Hiding the pain but just let him in
Please just forgive him, we said again, ooh, yeah
Came from the bottom but you know that the Lord, He stay with me
God on my side don’t play with me
He arranges me, got victory
Yeah, started from the bottom but I know God saw my pain, alright
Joy comes in the morning, even in the mourning, I’ma get through the night, ayy

[Chorus: 1K Phew & Wande]
You know, you ain’t gotta stay down there (Down there)
But the hate can stay down there (Down there)
If you can’t love, then go somewhere (Uh, yeah, leavin’ [?] away)
You ain’t gotta stay down there (Down there)
But the hate can stay down there (Down there)
If you can’t love, then go somewhere (Let’s go)
Color purple had to fight all my life (All my life)
Color purple had to fight all my life (All my life)
Let em know I had to fight all my life
Fight all my life and I’m still here
Color purple had to fight all my life (Oh)
Had to fight all my life (Oh yeah)
Had to fight all my life (Yeah) and I’m still

[Outro: 1K Phew]
Eager to fall, call when you need me
Need this no more, it’s a new season
Leaving ’em all, now we can breathe in
In
Eager to fall, call when you need me
Need this no more, it’s a new season
Leaving ’em all, now we can breathe in
In
