Give Thanks for the Crew — Roots Reggae

Lyrics

[Intro] [Organ swell, one-drop groove settles in] (Give thanks, give thanks) [Verse 1] [Fast percussive phrasing] Step in the rhythm, I'm thanking the Most High, look at the blessing, it's raining from the sky. Family behind me, the circle drawn tight, feet on the concrete but I'm lifted in the light. Ain't got no room for the poison they sell, my crew is the fortress, the well where I dwell. [Pre-Chorus] Mila caught my eye in the storm, that look that said "I'm not leaving" — I'm warm. [Chorus] [Heavy half-time bass drop] (Yeah, we leave the sorrow behind) Give thanks for the love, give thanks for the crew, God in the center, He's making everything new. Got the swag in the step, got the peace in the mind, leaving the shadows and the sorrow behind. [Verse 2] [Fast chat] Shoutout to Mila, my anchor, my ground, when the fire was hot, nah, we never backed down. Shoutout to the friends in the trench and the rain, we build like a unit, we carry no chain. Roots running deep through the rock and the soil, blessed is the fruit of the love and the toil. [Chorus] Give thanks for the love, give thanks for the crew, God in the center, He's making everything new. Got the swag in the step, got the peace in the mind, leaving the shadows and the sorrow behind. [Bridge] [Dub echo, bass alone, sparse] Storm come, storm go — (go, go, go) Mila still here, don't you know? [Build] Strike the match, watch the cane burn slow, the fire's still lit and it won't let go. [Final Chorus] [Belt, full crew chant] (Yeah, we leave the sorrow behind) Give thanks for the love, give thanks for the crew, God in the center, He's making everything new. Got the swag in the step, got the peace in the mind, leaving the shadows and the sorrow behind. [Outro] [Organ fades, drums hold] (Give thanks, give thanks) The fire's still burning — give thanks.
