Paul Russell
Gave You the World
[Verse 1: Paul Russell]
Well, I heard the Earth would feel smooth if I could hold it in palm
On a sphere this big, those hills don't roll so tall
Maybe knowing I'm a speck on a globe could be the goal of it all
So I look up and I wonder who built for me this home on a ball
Well, I drove on top of the ball for what felt like days
And I pressed my hands to the fringes of time and space
But Hell can't wipe this smile from my face
Oh, and Hell can't wipe this smile from my face
[Chorus: Paul Russell]
He told me, "Oh child, I gave you the world
Oh child, I gave you the world"
Well, He told me, "Oh child, I gave you the world"
Oh, oh, child, I gave you the world"
[Verse 2: Paul Russell]
Ah, oh
But I can't seem to get this through my head
I just scream, and kick, and cry, and beg
Bite my nails about this daily bread
But that's just fuel to to do the things You said
'Cause I want more as if that's why I'm here
But I exist to see You in the fear
To see You're God and see it so sincere
And join the choirs in stanzas loud and clear
[Chorus: Paul Russell, Montell Fish]
He told me, "Oh child, I gave you the world
Oh child, I gave you the world"
Well, He told me, "Oh child, I gave you the world"
Oh, oh, child, I gave you the world" (Yo, what up, Paul? It's Fish)
Ah
[Bridge: Montell Fish]
I was lost and on a cloud
He came into my heart
And I'm amazed just at the fact that I am loved
I was hoping for a dime and change
'Cause money ruled my everything
And reefer smoke was blowin' in my face
I know that God saves stoners
He can change you, make your pain go over
He will reign just as my King Jehovah
Children in Israel, we was roaming like infidels
Probably evil as witches' spells
"And if I gave you the world
Would you give me your heart?
If I gave You the world
Would you give me your heart?
And if I gave you the world
Would you give me your heart?"
Honestly just have it all, God
Honestly just have it all, God
[Outro: Montell Fish]
"If I gave you the world (Gave you the world)
Would you give me your heart? (Would you give me your heart?)
If I gave you the world (Gave you the world)"
Honestly just have it all, God (Honestly just have it all, God)
Honestly just have it all, God (Honestly just have it all, God)
Honestly just have it all, God (Honestly just have it all, God)
"What if I gave you the world?"
