Текст песни Treasure (Colby Jeffers) с переводом

I was born into a family with history

It was my late, great-great-grandfather that discovered the mystery

He uncovered this gift for me, but I have to admit to Thee

That the world had a grip on me, I completely failed to see

The ocean right in front of me, knew I should let my soul in

Too scared to dip my toes in, I was frozen

Busy staring at the sandcastles, misdirecting my devotion

But then one day I was presented with a pearl

The knowledge that I have the power within me to change the world

And in the twinkle of an eye my life changed, re-arranged

The search for truth went from spark into a flame

Into a fire burning the veils and lighting up the ocean blue

I knew what I had to do

I jumped in, all in, full immersion

Submerging myself into the glory, switching up my story

Society and self, a two-fold transformation

Now I live to give my life to build a new civilization

I infinitely sought for pieces of infinity

Searching for purpose through wordsmith divinity

It was filling me up — with possibilities bruh

I held fast to ideas and was stuck like a suction cup

But my lips were still dry

I can’t deny there was no reply to the finds that were in my mind

And the well of religion seemed dry, never mind

I kept wandering through the valleys and the dunes

The sun was beating down as something came into view

The moment was surreal came out of the blue

A girl with a canteen said ‘I know what you need to pursue'

Conversations, contemplating, mirages started fading

Understanding started breaking, I felt my world shaking

We came to a place where my body felt weightless

I finally found an oasis

I jumped into the ocean, I let my soul in

I found the treasure and now I’ve been awoken

I jumped into the ocean, I let my soul in

I found the treasure and I’ll cherish it forever, yeah

God was a fading thought in the fifth grade

Living outside the box in the passing days

Angry and doubtful of the world’s religions

They knew of the framework but didn’t follow the vision

I was an activist, call me out on that

I know the names, and y’all could follow that

We got mumia and shakur, their wisdom preferred

Then this trip took a twist unheard

My friends pulled me into action

Where the question i was always asking

‘Could there be a God?'

Nah not probably

I’d find out flexing my philosophy

My attachments took a hold of me

‘Till a made a faux possibility where i had let go of what made me

Then I decided to trust his treasure and his destiny

And as y’all know the rest is history

Weighed down by the past, yo, I couldn’t move on

But this pearl was so vast, I had to surge on

Accustomed to darkness, the light was flawless

So bright, I was undeserving of its might

But then I flowed into the masses

Enjoying all types of grasses

A pull as if magnetic

A new home I was left with

Brought pain but I could not neglect it

Attracted to the rhetoric, began to treasure it

My mind and my soul became aligned to the messages

I reached the shores and I let my soul in

A dewdrop quickened me from being frozen

I jumped into the ocean, I let my soul in

I found the treasure and now I’ve been awoken

I jumped into the ocean, I let my soul in

I found the treasure and I’ll cherish it forever

Oh-nine, in my prime, with my girl ‘n my world

Figured out, without a doubt, man, I’m rollin' with the homies

Middle finger to the police, like ‘destroy to rebuild,' cuz ‘thats just how I

feel,'

Give no what’s and cannot chill, nah I’m bent on being real

Still one thing is for sure, I’m steady wantin' more

Like an ocean with no shore, so I’m searching ocean floors

No more surfing on the surface, found a plan for my purpose

Got the homies talkin' service, cuz destruction just ain’t workin'

And attached to your boat, you’ll only ever float

And the current you’ll be fightin', So I finally got to divin'

And the gems weren’t even hidin', A Map was in the writings

So solutions I’m applyin', gotta get my ego dyin

Need to see like the blind and, Faith is hard but I been tryin'

So its hope that I been findin! Yeah, yeah it’s hope that I been findin'

I was dazed and confused, amazed and amused

In those days when I stayed in a phase or a mood

Needed rays of the truth, I was lost in my treasure map

The world was dark and I was hoping I could better that

The pitter pat of my steps took me there and back

Leading me to crisis and victory, tit for tat

It lit the match, inflicted rash effects when I strayed

So I thought I’ll stick to that path

That’s on the map that I’ve been given

I redefined my life and the way that I was living

I tried to unearth all the gems that were hidden

So I picked up my shovel and I started digging

I was saved by the grace of God

Now will I be perfect? Probably not

But I know where I’m from

I’m close to the one who found my soul when I was lost

Through pain and tears I found the treasure

And I’ll cherish what I’ve got, I guess X marks the spot!

I jumped into the ocean, I let my soul in

I found the treasure and now I’ve been awoken

I jumped into the ocean, I let my soul in

I found the treasure and I’ll cherish it forever

Aye, aye, aye

I found the treasure and I’ll cherish it forever

Aye, aye, The Prince of Peace

I found the treasure and I’ll cherish it forever

Aye, aye, The Promised One

I found the treasure and I’ll cherish it forever

Aye, aye, The Most High

I found the treasure and I’ll cherish it forever

Aye, aye, The Blessed Beauty

I found the treasure and I’ll cherish it forever

Aye, aye, The Glory of God

I found the treasure and I’ll cherish it forever

Aye, aye, Baha’u’llah

I found the treasure and I’ll cherish it forever
