Handwriting

[Chorus: Brother Ali]

Let yourself go, let yourself go, let yourself go

Handwriting on the wall

And we sing

Let yourself go, let yourself go, let yourself go

Handwriting on the wall

Don't know

[Verse 1: Brother Ali]

Every drop of blood running through me

Remind me of the love that renewed me

The ugly and beauty

The cool touch soothed me and cruelty that bruised me

I view it like my own private movie

I bring stories of turmoil and glory

The toll stolen from me and gold laid before me

My heart got ripped and carved out of a ditch

Flooded it with wisdom when the rain storm hit

I've been punched on, spit on, loved on, and kissed on

Handcuffed, detained, some chanted my name

But the globe so spacious and the Lord so gracious

Borders and walls won't contain us

My soul is a song that rose out of the cages

My story a poem that glows out of the pages

I feel it in my bones down through the ages

Maybe the universe knows what my name is

They say I long for illogical things

But I've seen all my impossible dreams come to being

Every time the unseen becomes seen

I want to drop tears on it 'til it run clean

Handwriting

[Chorus: Brother Ali]

Let yourself go, let yourself go, let yourself go

Handwriting on the wall

And we sing

Let yourself go, let yourself go, let yourself go

Handwriting on the wall

Don't know

[Verse 2: Brother Ali]

I'm not a star, I'm the darkness between 'em

The reason for being

The glee and the grieving

The stillness and speaking, the sea and the season

Wide awake dreaming while you peek through the ceiling

Rain forest in a seedling

Ocean in a drop, the unspoken thought

The sperm and the egg form a clot to the burial plot

Hero's journey, character arc

The heart of the author that holds the whole saga

The twists in the plot and the drama

Before he blotted the first dot and scribed the first comma

Unfold the whole road map to Nirvana

Escape from the maze of space and timeline

From the finite to the face of the divine

Already know the climax of the story

My heart gave a whole testimony

They say I long for illogical things

But I've seen all my impossible dreams come to being

Every time the unseen becomes seen

I wanna drop tears on it 'til it run clean

Handwriting

[Chorus: Brother Ali]

Let yourself go, let yourself go, let yourself go

Handwriting on the wall

And we sing

Let yourself go, let yourself go, let yourself go

Handwriting on the wall

Don't know

[Outro]

To His unchanging hand

Ooh, yeah, hold on

To His unchanging hand

Ooh, yeah, hold on

To His unchanging hand

Ooh, yeah, hold on

To His unchanging hand

Ooh, yeah, hold on
