TobyMac - 21 Years lyrics

21 Years

TobyMac

GENRE
Pop
[Intro]
Yeah, Denver, how ya feelin'?
*crowd cheers*
Yes
Ayy, help me out, man
Lady got some long nails, y'all
Ow
Ayy, thank you so much for comin' out tonight, Denver
And listen, man, has it not been an amazing night so far already, or what?
Some of the best bands—I mean, some of my favorites acts in the world were up here tonight, alright?
I mean, the way this tour gets down is, I text these guys, say, "Would you like to come on tour?"
And guess what
Every one of 'em said yes
So, I'm so happy
Is—is it not a crazy lineup, or what?
And look, I love all those guys
I love—I truly love every one of 'em
And one thing I love about 'em is, they're not only great up here
But they're great backstage, in their life, where it really matters
And listen…
And I do love 'em
I love them dearly
But my very favorite band just hit the stage
Give it up for the Diverse City Band
*crowd cheers*
No pressure
They lookin' good tonight, aren't they?
Come on, man
So, look, Denver's gone so good, we had to turn it into two nights
So, we're grateful for that
Thank you
So, look, a—a lot of people have come up to me and my wife the last few months and said things like, "Hey. You'll see him again. You'll see your son again."
And listen, I believe that with all my heart
I do
I really do
I'm counting on it
But I will say this: The question is "Why?"
Why do I get to see my son again?
Because… hold on
Because his good outweighed his bad?
No
He was my wild child
His—his good did not outweigh his bad
And—and my good does not outweigh my bad
There's only one reason
"For God so love the world
That He gave His only begotten Son
That whosoever believeth in Him shall not perish
But have everlasting life"
That is a promise
That is a gift
It's a gift
To you and to me
It was a gift to my son
But the thing about a gift is, you have to accept a gift
I don't know where you are on that tonight
But, man, tonight could be the night for you
It really could
I ain't no preacher, but I believe that
I know… I know my son accepted that gift because I spoke to him many, many times about it
And we're counting on this
We love this
That God gave His firstborn son so that we could see our firstborn son again

[Verse 1]
Woke up 'cause the light poured in
Day two, let the flood begin
Day one left me in my bed
I can barely remember it
Heart shattered in a thousand ways
They tell me pain gonna come in waves
They tell me I'm gonna be okay
I'm still waitin' for the first to break

[Pre-Chorus]
How could You give and then take him away?
Suddenly end, could You not let it fade?
What I would give for a couple o' days
A couple o' days

[Chorus: TobyMac & GabeReal]
Is it just across the Jordan? (Across the Jordan?)
Or a city in the stars? (City in the stars)
Are you singin' with the angels? (Singin' with the angels)
Are you happy where you are? (Happy where you are)
Well, until this show is over (This show is over)
And you run into my arms (Into my arms)
God has you in Heaven, but I have you in my heart
Hey hey, hey hey hey hey, hey hey hey hey, hey hey hey hey
I have you in my heart
Hey hey, hey hey hey hey, hey hey hey hey, hey hey hey hey

[Verse 2]
I just can't make sense of this (Sense of this)
Everything is so dissonant (Dissonant)
Somebody said he was meant for this (Meant for this)
But I'm just straight missin' him
I wanna wake up to your laugh at two (Laugh at two)
Catch you when you steal my shoes (Steal my shoes)
Say good mornin', afternoon (Afternoon)
Talk you through those "Alex blues" (Alex blues)
Listen to your latest beats (Latest beats)
Talk about what the lyrics mean (Lyrics mean)
Venmo you another loan (Another loan)
See you do your second show (Second show)

[Pre-Chorus: TobyMac & Terrian, TobyMac]
You said you'd turn, you would turn it around
Thought that you had time to straighten it out
Told me that you were my prodigal son
But this isn't home

[Chorus: TobyMac & GabeReal]
Is it just across the Jordan? (Across the Jordan?)
Or a city in the stars? (City in the stars)
Are you singin' with the angels? (Singin' with the angels)
Are you happy where you are? (Happy where you are)
Well, until this show is over (This show is over)
And you run into my arms (Into my arms)
God has you in Heaven, but I have you in my heart
Hey hey, hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey, hey hey hey hey
I have you in my heart
Hey hey, hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey, hey hey hey hey

[Bridge]
Did he see You from a long way off
Runnin' to him with a father's heart?
Did You wrap him up inside Your arms
And let him know that he's home?
Did he see You from a long way off (Long way off)
Runnin' to him with a father's heart? (Father's heart)
Did You wrap him up inside Your arms (Inside Your arms)
And let him know that he's home? (He's home)

[Breakdown: TobyMac & GabeReal]
Oh-oh
Hey hey, hey hey hey hey
Oh-oh
Hey hey hey hey, hey hey hey hey
Oh-oh
Hey hey, hey hey hey hey
Oh-oh
Hey hey hey hey, hey hey hey hey

[Chorus: GabeReal & TobyMac]
Is it just across the Jordan?
Or a city in the stars? (City in the stars)
Are you singin' with the angels?
Are you happy where you are? (Happy where you are)
Well, until this show is over
And you run into my arms (Run into my arms)
God has you in Heaven

[Outro]
21 years makes a man full-grown
21 years, what a beautiful loan
21 years, I loved every one
Thank You, Lord, for my beautiful son
