Its Christmas time in the city a candle burns inside
Children laugh praying Christmas come tonight
There's a noble tree with a star on top
A hundred gifts adorn the floor
But still the children pray sunrise brings some more
A fire burns till it warms the night
A cup of joe and a slice of pie
Belly full but still hungry inside, belly full but still empty inside
Is this all it was meant to be? Colorful lights and a Christmas tree?
All my life I believed, it could be what I want it to be
Is it only what I see or is it bigger than me?
And just outside on the city streets poverty wins the fight
A family kneels praying Jesus come tonight.
Cuz tribulation blew in like a hurricane
But no rain came to wash the pain away
No bread tonight but they feel his life inside,
no bread this time but they feel his life inside
Is this all it was meant to be? Colorful lights and a Christmas tree?
All my life I believed, it could be what I want it to be
Is it only what I see...
Cuz the kids on the street pray...
Lord I know they won't let me stay
At the fancy place with the fancy name
but I heard you might know what that's like
So I thought maybe you could stay with me tonight
I ain't got no cushy bed, a private room where you could lay your head
But I'm pretty sure that's not why you
came or why you were born on Christmas day
I don't want just a dazzling tree,
I need the one where you hung for me
I don't want some sparkling lights I need your love to light my night
I don't need no fancy place,
a wallet full of president Benjamin's face
I don't want something shiny and new,
I need something better all I want is you
I need your love I need your life
I need everything you are this time your everything good I got inside
Is this all it was meant to be? Colorful lights and a Christmas tree?
All my life I believed, it could be what I want it to be
Is it only what I see or is it bigger than me?
