A Long Walk lyrics

[Verse 1]

You're here, I'm pleased, I really dig your company

Your style, your smile, your peace mentality

Lord, have mercy on me, I was blind, now I can see

What a king's supposed to be, baby I feel free,

Come on and go with me

[Refrain]

Let's take a long walk around the park after dark

Find a spot for us to spark

Conversation, verbal elation, stimulation

Share our situations, temptations, education, relaxations

Elevations, maybe we can talk about Surah 31:18

[Verse 2]

Your background it ain't squeaky clean shit

Sometimes we all got to swim upstream

You ain't no saint, we all are sinners

But you put your good foot down and make your soul a winner

I respect that, man you're so phat,

And you're all that, plus supreme

Then you're humble, man I'm numb yo with your feeling,

I can feel everything that you bring

[Refrain]

Let's take a long walk around the park after dark

Find a spot for us to spark

Conversation, verbal elation, stimulation

Share our situations, temptations, education, relaxations

Elevations, maybe we can talk about Revelation 3:17

[Bridge]

Or maybe we can see a movie

Or maybe we can see a play on Saturday

Or maybe we can roll a tree

And feel the breeze and listen to a symphony

Or maybe chill and just be, or maybe

Maybe we can take a cruise and listen to the Roots

Or maybe eat some passion fruit

Or maybe cry to the blues

Or maybe we could just be silent

Come on, come on

[Refrain]

Let's take a long walk around the park after dark

Find a spot for us to spark

Conversation, verbal elation, stimulation

Share our situations, temptations, education, relaxations

Elevations, maybe we can talk about Psalms in entirety

[Refrain]

Let's take a long walk around the park after dark

Find a spot for us to spark

Conversation, verbal elation, stimulation

Share our situations, temptations, education, relaxations

Elevations, maybe we can talk about Psalms in entirety

[Bridge]

Or maybe we can see a movie

Or maybe we can see a play on Saturday

Or maybe we can roll a tree

And feel the breeze and listen to a symphony

Or maybe chill and just be, or maybe

Maybe we can take a cruise and listen to the Roots

Or maybe eat some passion fruit

Or maybe cry to the blues

Or maybe we could just be silent

Come on, come on

[Refrain]

Let's take a long walk around the park after dark

Find a spot for us to spark

Conversation, verbal elation, stimulation

Share our situations, temptations, education, relaxations

Elevations, maybe baby, maybe we can save the nation

Come on, come on
