lyrics

Verse (Freddy):
Status update, St. Bagu boarding for Shanghai/
can this be reality, don't want to be a sad guy/
15 hours later, we've landed, pinching my hands right/
St. bagu to the stage, the fans awaiting autographs why?/
what the heck just happened six dudes from the second city/
no really, old cars, due bills, and truly filthy/
shoes and they choose to give us a stage to play our ditties?/
no really, we did nothing but set to love without the shifty/
without the back talk, we said get lost to all the grudges,
no judging, tossed mud tossing and pride chest puffing/
so we cut an ep just two emcees with giant dreams/
and faith to see our big God move in ways we've never seen/
so humbling to see our prayers become reality/
gifted us with a dope band better yet a family/
congress, elbo room, i digress, house of blues/
double door, China too can't wait to see whats coming soon/
for those of you not listening, listen up when i say/
can't pretend to understand why God moves in those secret ways/
why two former losers can be used to move and sway/
a room thousand plus not even there to hear us play/
why a band was broken up so that we could be built a new?/
different crew with a view to do whats true without the skew/
look at you is what they choose to say to boost the who's who/
list I bid adue to that boot it too life's been good to me/

Chorus:
Through and through
Life’s been good, been so good
Life’s been good, been so good
And oh I love it
But saying “good” won’t quite do it justice/

Verse (Tony):
They’re like “Dude, December 4th we open for The Roots”/
I’m like, “Shoot… why you playing man that’s rude”/
I hopefully assumed we’d have openings this soon/
Like D. Rose around the hoop, but only opened by my Root/
Faith is like one that slowly rolls around the hoop/
When the game is on the line, it’s falling out or going through/
A thousand doubts are running through your mind, a thousand boos/
And “I told you so’s” await you but you’re focused on the Truth/
Swoosh, green room, live House of Blues/
No longer do I house the blues, God moves/
In a room of thousands or ten in a high school/
In the land of China and back in the Chi too/
You’d be acting surprised too/
Knowing the most bashful and shy youth is now in a passionate rhyme crew/
Smashing live tunes, get em on iTunes/
Tight grooves mastered by the Passion of Christ dude/
Everlasting… this life… who?/
Could ever grasp it… I try to/
I can’t imagine… if I could explain/
All the vastness, and madness, I’d still be amazed/
This is thanks, for the year that we had/
2010, St. Bagu, the year of the dads/
God steering it’s clear can’t veer from the path/
New life, but it’s not new that it’s been good and I’m glad/
