Braille - An Open Letter to Whoever's Listening lyrics

[Hook: All] Greetings, from us to you, pull up a chair There's a few things we'd like to share An honest open letter We address it to whoever, wherever, whenever You get a chance to listen to what we've put together And just to be clear, what's in your ears It's a result of blood, sweat, and tears Now that we're here, you can hear what we got to say And the way we say it The best way to explain it was to make this and just play it [Verse 1: Odd Thomas] Ah, this is a little bit love letter and a little bit of incentive Signed, sealed, and delivered from it sender With a P.S. of encouragement depending on whether you receive it in The medium for which it's intended Dear whoever has ears to hear listen and pay attention We write to make mention of the Gospel and the Resurrection Exist with the tension of trying to creatively display Creation, Fall, and Redemption Contextualize and set the context for the text that's divinely inspired Maybe music isn't the best medium for making much of the Messiah But for Courtland Urbano, Braille, and I, there's really is not a lot of options Only poor penmanship trying to paint pictures of proper doctrine Make you logically stop and think doxologically Cause honestly, a little bit of music and theology never really hurt anybody And it's probably better for your soul If you ingest the various words letters and tones As we speak psalms, and write these songs, and sing praises to God And Him alone, who sits on throne who has shown great grace And much mercy to His own [Hook: All] Greetings, from us to you, pull up a chair There's a few things we'd like to share An honest open letter We address it to whoever, wherever, whenever You get a chance to listen to what we've put together And just to be clear, what's in your ears It's a result of blood, sweat, and tears Now that we're here, you can hear what we got to say And the way we say it The best way to explain it was to make this and just play it [Verse 2: Braille] And we don't write to get a reaction as highly regarded rappers That was never the purpose when we permeate these pages with permanent statements Our determination is a response to our God who loved us first Immersed in the Word of Life so we write from the heart And give it all that we got The Lord ordained that we would make this before the Earth's foundation was laid So we lay it down for your benefit Anonymous audience get your audio fix Medicine for the sick, I used to be an optimist Now the Gospel is the central message I'm rocking with Embedded in every line that we spit Music is a platform, a tool we use to gain influence But we're more concerned with discipleship than ciphering Engage the culture with the truth from the Scriptures When it hits ya the Holy Spirit bears witness And the proper exposition can switch up your disposition For the downtrodden and bound up, losing balance, feeling calloused We empathize with your challenges and pray this might be a catalyst For spiritual development, so you can worship God more truthfully Servants of the Messiah Yours truly Beautiful Eulogy [Hook: All] (x2) Greetings, from us to you, pull up a chair There's a few things we'd like to share An honest open letter We address it to whoever, wherever, whenever You get a chance to listen to what we've put together And just to be clear, what's in your ears It's a result of blood, sweat, and tears Now that we're here, you can hear what we got to say And the way we say it The best way to explain it was to make this and just play it
