Holy Ground

Give a little this

Give a little that

(Intro: Tamar speaking in French...)

Our Father, who art in heaven

Hallowed be thy Name

Somebody told me

You protect me

From anything in my way

This yellow-brick road, yeah

Ain't easy walking

The streets ain't paved with gold

Every time I listen to a fake gangsta talking

They take another piece of my soul

How do I know just where I'm going?

How do I keep my head?

Who do I call on to fight my battles?

And bring me back from the dead?

And they never try to stop me

Who's gonna be my friend?

And answer the age-old question

Who took the 'i' in singing?

I know you are there

Father, let me know

I know you care which way I go

Take my hand, Father

Lead the way

I'm ready to do anything you say

So

Give me those boots I need for walking

No matter how hard the road

Give me those words I need for talking

The power gives me soul

Give me those tools I need for building

The houses won't fall down

Give a little this

Give a little that

Holy ground

Every single day just

Leaves me in a wastehole

I can stay away from

Negatives that come my way

I won't let it get the best of me

When somebody tries to

Shut you down and blind you

Deceive and lie to

Get you to do the wrong they do

Don't let it get the best of you

When the days get down some fears

Give us a sign that you are near

And no matter what comes

We'll keep the faith

Take my hand and lead the way

So

Give me those boots I need for walking

No matter how hard the road

Give me those words I need for talking

The power gives me soul

Give me those tools I need for building

The houses won't fall down

Give a little this

Give a little that

Holy ground

Give me those boots I need for walking

No matter how hard the road

Give me those words I need for talking

The power gives me soul

Give me those tools I need for building

The houses won't fall down

Give a little this

Give a little that

Holy ground

Give me those boots I need for walking

No matter how hard the road

Give me those words I need for talking

The power gives me soul

Give me those tools I need for building

The houses won't fall down

Give a little this

Give a little that

Holy ground

(Tamar speaking in French...)

Let me know you are there

.......

Let me know that you care

.......

Take my hand, lead the way

.......

Give me those boots I need for walking

Give me those words I need for talking

Give me those tools I need for fielding

Give a little this

Give a little that

Holy ground

Holy ground

Oh

Every single day just

Leaves me in a wastehole

I can stay away from

Negatives that come my way

It's like this

Give a little this

Give a little that

Holy ground
