[Verse 1: Esteban Shedd]

I saw him

And when I tell you that I saw him

He's a sonnet, he's a poem

He's a praise, he's an onyx

A pattern of joy colored on us

Deeper than the colors that adorn us

Epitome of joy spilling on us

And it's chronic

I chronicle the moments when he's calling

My whole life's a book, he designed it

Penning with a fine tip

Pressure my purpose into alignment

Architects of minds

I'm a child of his design

Blood is his polish

Grace through his carnage

{?} love genres

Now I ain't talking religion

Nah, I ain't talking performance

Nah, I ain't talking a rhombus

I'm talking eternal bloodlines

To the heart of this, he was

Martyred for my malice

He got a voice like a songstress

Filling my ears with his phonics

Speaking good news in the age that's demonic

Above him no other

Supreme, my lover

He's king, I'd be a fool

A fiend to sit outside of his reign

Just give me everything of him

No need for another other, I'm saying

Good morning

He's the new morning, joy dawning

Good morning


[Hook: Liz Vice]

Hey

Between his two arms lay

My darkest day

The blood he paid

Gave me new days


[Verse 2: Esteban Shedd]

Within my soul, like condors

Over life crumbling

My origin, his portion

Covered like a terrapin

All nature broadcasts his excellence

Even on the west side

Of life's end, my good friend

Good morning

In his presence like an engine

I'm dependent on

Mixed metaphors to try to pin him

I'm failing, I'm sailing

My cousin, he's the wind in me

Even when tragedy hit my family

Bullets hit my shorties

Disease hit the wifey

Still my god worthy on his mercy seat

I'm treasure hunting for a worthy tweet

Can only brag on what he means to me

I'm a fool

I love him, I'm wanting no other lover

I'm covered in this covenant

No shame on my brother

No shame on my savior

I savor the Seders

I'm a son of the Creator

And after all of my labor

I can never earn his favor

But he bade me with favor

Favored all of my failings

Making a son from a hater

When he hollowed his halo

To pay all of my wages

Turn my feeling to hello

My only cordero

Mi canto, mi core

Resurrected that morning

He's the new day dawning

Good morning

[Hook: Liz Vice] x2


[Outro: Esteban Shedd]

Forgiveness is his offering

The light from the torment

My soul's night got swallowed through his torch

Transformed through a resurrection

Morning

And he's coming, shining, dawn

A new day dawning

Good morning
