Can't Take It Away

Dj Maj


So thinking back on it all, it's like 
It's a beautiful thing, let's go 
Yo they can't take it away 
Form, they can't take it away 
TobyMac they can't take it away 
Maj they can't take it away 
No they can't take it away 
No they can't take it away 

It seems I was oblivious to it 
I didn't see you lurking in the shadows 
One would think the close calls woulda gave you away 
But I was stuck in two feet shallow 
I saw the footprints and then 
Naah, it couldn't have been him 
I wasn't the type of cat to pray 
Perhaps I'll chalk it up as coincidence 
And commence to be my on my way 
What makes a bad boy leave his stash cold turkey 
And make vanity retreat from purple streets 
I guess your rep is really opposite ruthless 
You even walked the windy city with Mr. West it's like 

Chorus 
What we got (to my people all over the world) 
They can't take it away 
They can't take it away 
No way, no way 
(Repeat 1x) 

Some wish to rewind the hands of time 
And erase every mistake made 
Others wish to discover the true meaning of life 
A mystery through out the ages 
Some say that you can't exist, nah 
How can it be when the very air we breathe 
Is evidence we all have the capacity to believe 
Without seeing a thing 
What made the Passion such a blast 
When so many peers left the theaters on the verge of tears 
May be your story's not all that impossible 
It's the fact you bring healing beyond the hospital and that's why 

So it doesn't really matter what comes my way 
Here to shake up the world that's why I pray 
Spread love and let the Son shine bright all day 
They can't take it away, can't take it away 
And if my heart beat stops pace tonight 
I'm waking up and staring God in the face alright 
So if you feel me get your hands in outta space so high 
They can't take it away 

Yo DJ Maj I got your back on this track for fact 
And if it's me and you or you and me the deck be stack 
So tell me why they gotta try and go and do us like that 
Don't they know they can't take it away 
Ain't no robbing this joy ain't no stealing this peace 
Ain't no taking our faith as we drop to our knees 
They can take it all everything we possess 
But they can't take belief from down deep in our chest I rest 
Our Father who art in heaven 
Hallowed be Thy name 
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done 
On Earth as it is in heaven 

No Maj (what) they can't take a thing 
(Sing your song Mac what) 
They can't take a thing away no 
Africa they can't take it away 
India they can't take it away 
Arabia they can't take it away 
Israel they can't take it away
