Paradise | Numatik ft. Andrew Kwon

[Verse 1: Numatik]
As a kid, I always wondered where—
The automated Voice at the end of the line lived—
Or why a picture seem closer in the mirrors on the side
Of my dad’s red ride while he driving’—
I’ve always wondered how a man so possessed
By the One who created him in love, stay a titan—
And’ even in the winter cold, seen snow
Slow roll, ‘cause you’ll never see him fold, fruit ripens—
“I’m a runner, machine gun, gunner—
regime if you know what I mean, we outnumber—…”
Said in a verse, worth a quick listen,
If lives aren’t changed, then I’ve missed it—
Whoa— I need a people to rise up, so find us
We in this ‘till dawn breaks, and’ lights up—
We running’ hard—going’ so fast
Arriving’ at the goal, paradise at last—!

[Verse 2: Andrew Kwon]
I remember as a little boy
I wondered what it was like, on the other side, in the paradise
Now that heaven is reality, it’s no longer just a story
And I just can’t wait to see Him face to face―

[Hook]
Come take my hand into the land of no more tears and pain
We will praise eternally, worship the Lord of lords, and King of kings!

[Verse 3: Numatik]
Yeah—I really wonder what it’s like up in paradise
I know it’s not a pair of’ dice for a better life—
Not a chance! Not a random roll—for a—
Wayfaring’ soul, it’s called hope, value—
Put on a promise, I promise that it gon’ rock you
Knowledge dropped on, like bombs
It will not top truth— Memories’ll fade if you let it—
Fitting’ to say, “Ay, (ay, ay, ay) don’t let Him go—
Take hold, and’ don’t sweat it!”
Rest—
Everything will be taken care of
Seek first His kingdom, and’ King apparel
Apparent to the world, pearls that be living’
Shining’ like stars, worth more than a business—―
Worth more than your feelings’ it’s truth on my brain—
Truth in the way that I live, tell ‘em Drew—
Never letting’ go of this promise He gives—
(Yes suh— yes suh, uh!)

[Verse 4: Andrew Kwon]
And’ I’ll be dancing in the street of dreams
Singing’ melodies, giving God the glory―
And’ everyday that I’ve been waiting
I know this day is coming, no I just can’t wait to see Him face to face

[Bridge]
And’ I just can’t wait, all the things that we gonna’ do
(I want to fly away to where you are)
Lost away in time, in you I’ll find forever―
(In you I’ll find forever)

[Outro]
Come take my hand, (would you lead me, lead me by the hand God)
Into the land of no more tears and pain (no more tears, no more suffering’)
We will praise eternally (I can see it now―)
Worship the Lord of lords, and King of kings! (Haha, I can’t wait―)
