lyrics

It’s sunrise, the sun is rising up//
And like the sun, I’m gonna reach the top//
It’s time to get up, time to get up//
Time to get up, time to get up//
It’s sunrise, the sun is rising up//
And like the sun, I’m gonna reach the top//
It’s time to get up, time to get up//
There’s light in my eyes, sunrise//

Every morning I wake up, saying my prayers//
Sun rising up as I walk up the stairs//
6 AM is the time, I’m feeling sublime//
Spitting my rhyme, not a thing on my mind//
When you serve the world, cultivate the earth//
Things get their perspective and everything is worth//
What it is, it’s bliss, like a blessing from the sky//
Following His path so He is on my side//
That’s kinda hard to say, but when you pray to Him//
Repenting your sin, say you can’t win without Him//
And that’s just the beginning//
I want to teach you something so let me stress this//
God is real, He is mighty, He gave us free will//
We get a choice in our hands like a gun to kill//
It’s serious, be curious, so open your mind//
You only got one chance cus you can’t rewind//

It’s sunrise, the sun is rising up//
And like the sun, I’m gonna reach the top//
It’s time to get up, time to get up//
Time to get up, time to get up//
It’s sunrise, the sun is rising up//
And like the sun, I’m gonna reach the top//
It’s time to get up, time to get up//
There’s light in my eyes, sunrise//

Verse two is a question about us being here//
Got two eyes, two ears, and a whole lot of tears//
Roaming the earth, but what is it worth//
Living a losing game that started at birth//
If you got nothing to live for, to die for//
We consume but happiness isn’t sold in a store//
The world is spilling gore, we can’t see the shore//
The world is asleep, can you hear it snore//
I got questions, about wasting my time//
Cus living life in this time ain’t really that divine//
I got questions, about life after death//
It makes me realize the importance of my breath//
I got questions, about sinning in life//
When you wake up in the evening and live a nightlife//
I know the answers to these questions cus I’m living them now//
And everything seems to work out somehow//

It’s sunrise, the sun is rising up//
And like the sun, I’m gonna reach the top//
It’s time to get up, time to get up//
Time to get up, time to get up//
It’s sunrise, the sun is rising up//
And like the sun, I’m gonna reach the top//
It’s time to get up, time to get up//
There’s light in my eyes, sunrise//

So life goes on, the next chapter is on//
The old one is done, blessings are shown//
I had to do it alone, but than I found you//
And though we ain’t perfect we can help each other through//
It’s your eyes, your ideas, your smile, your soul
I love you physical, spiritual, intellectual//
But wow Jonathan, don’t take it there//
Talk about the world cus it’s in despair//
Yeah I’m back where it’s at, how about that//
The rain gave me pain and you can still see the stains//
On my pants, my shoes, my mind, my soul//
I left for a purpose and came back with a goal//
Praise the Lord, the Greatest, the Greatest//
Praise His Messenger, the latest, the latest//
When I die, it’s funny, cus I can’t take my money//
I’ll take a book full of prayers and the soul of my honey//

It’s sunrise, the sun is rising up//
And like the sun, I’m gonna reach the top//
It’s time to get up, time to get up//
Time to get up, time to get up//
It’s sunrise, the sun is rising up//
And like the sun, I’m gonna reach the top//
It’s time to get up, time to get up//
There’s light in my eyes, sunrise//
