Here, 2016 Lyrics - Sho Baraka

Drums make the folks go dumb 

And make the folks go dumb 

Horns make the people turn up 

Yeah it make the people turn up 

Turn up, turn up 

We make the people turn up 

Church keys make the church folks sing 

Church folks sing, church folks sing 

Love over hate, love over hate 

I'm here for that 

Real over fake, real over fake 

I'm here for that 

Truth and faith, truth and faith 

I'm here for that 

Beauty and grace, beauty and grace 

I'm here for that 

If you're here for the love, if you're here for the love, for the love (can the church say amen?) 

If you're here for the love, if you're here for the love, for the love (amen, amen) 

If you're here for the love, if you're here for the love, for the love (can the church say amen?) 

If you're here for the love, if you're here for the love, for the love (amen, amen)

Don't be afraid this is the future 

I know you ain't met, I'll introduce ya 

They might be cool but we are cooler 

We got class so let us school ya 

Fresh to death, like a million bucks 

I might just go a year in bow ties and chucks 

I might just go to church in an all white tux 

Yeah ya boy fly so you know what's up 

Can the church say amen? 

I'm here for that 

When the system don't love us, justice for the brothers 

Yeah, yeah I'm here for that 

You can tell all the haters with no hesitation I'll take the reparation 

I'm here for that 

And tell all the rappers with the pimpin' pimpin' murder sell drugs I ain't feelin' that 

Woo, I just do it for the love, I do it for the love (I do it) 

I do it for the nerds and the thugs, those overcoming drugs 

I'm here for that 

Give the children a little purpose 

Tell the politicians they serve us 

Make them nervous, I know they heard us 

Tell 'em we came here for the turn up

Love over hate, love over hate 

I'm here for that 

Real over fake, real over fake 

I'm here for that 

Truth and faith, truth and faith 

I'm here for that 

Beauty and grace, beauty and grace 

I'm here for that 

If you're here for the love, if you're here for the love, for the love (can the church say amen?) 

If you're here for the love, if you're here for the love, for the love (amen, amen) 

If you're here for the love, if you're here for the love, for the love (can the church say amen?) 

If you're here for the love, if you're here for the love, for the love (amen, amen) 

Yeah 

What up Sho? 

Just like old times, right? 

Look, I'm here for the young'uns with they pants saggin' 

And homies is flaggin, some say 'What up 'cause?' or 'What's bracking?'' 

Nothin' lacking on the corner, bread stacking 

Pray to God that nobody have to toe tag 'em 

He ain't be trapping in a minute 

Use the re-up money for the tithes and the rent 

Told his baby momma that he love her any minute 

Pastor dipped him in that water after he repented 

Granny told him he don't need a souvenir in church 

Straight up out the street, think he made the deacons nervous 

We just tryna learn a word and keep from getting murdered 

We be on that Kirk and Kendrick Sunday after service 

You can call it worship, Tamir Rice done got us nervous 

Innocent and killed like Christ is how they hurt us 

But I'm here for that 

Probably ain't gonna get a lot of cheers for that 

I just do it for the love, I do it for the love (I do it) 

I do it for the broke and the poor, those all feel ignored 

I'm here for that 

Tell 'em we woke and we alert now 

I promise there's healing for your hurt now 

Yeah, tell 'em we came to put in work now 

Yeah, can I get a amen from the church now? 

Love over hate, love over hate 

I'm here for that 

Real over fake, real over fake 

I'm here for that 

Truth and faith, truth and faith 

I'm here for that 

Beauty and grace, beauty and grace 

I'm here for that 

If you're here for the love, if you're here for the love, for the love (can the church say amen?) 

If you're here for the love, if you're here for the love, for the love 

If you're here for the love, if you're here for the love, for the love (can the church say amen?) 

If you're here for the love, if you're here for the love, for the love 

For my sisters who be fighting for that justice, uh, I'm here for that 

Real fathers, loving on they wives and kids, I'm here for that 

My wife is classy but a little ratchet, yeah I'm here for that 

West coast feeling but I still live in the A homeboy, I'm here for that 

When I walk on the courthouse judge feel the case out, definitely here for that 

Y'know when that unexpected check comes in the mail, 'cause, I'm here for that 

Always here for that 

Uh, always I'm here for that 

Gotta love it, gotta love it, gotta love it, gotta love it 

It means to be broadened, y'know, beyond the understanding that black women are strong 

Body and souls and so we're not only strong, we are, we are helpers 

We are lovers, we are fighters, y'know, we, we love strong 

But we are also human, y'know that mean's we are vulnerable 

Y'know we are, we hurt, y'know we ache, like everybody else 

We need somebody, to, to be strong for us when we are taking the bumps 

The bruises we're here on the frontlines, fighting so many battles 

That many people are not privy to and so I think that 

So y'know we are sisters, we are aunts, y'know we are deaconesses 

We are leaders in our churches, y'know, we are speakers 

We are writers, y'know we are corporate, y'know, CEO board executives 

We are advocates, we need our brothers to stand up and defend black womanhood 

Don't silence us, y'know, be happy that we are here to enable you, to empower you 

But we also need that empowerment to go both ways
