Basics Songtext
von Jonathan McReynolds

Yeah, oh
I-I-I-I, yah
Yah-yah-yah
Yeah, nah
Welcome to the camp

I′ve seen miracles and good shouts
And we believed with no doubts
Man, they different when they step out
Yeah I've seen, legs healed and arms stretched
Men′s hearts refreshed
Lost girls leave kept

And after years witnessing all that
Who could think I could lose contact with you? (With you, with you)
So what do you do when it gets like that?
You strip it down and rebuild it back with truth, ooh-oh yeah

So I can't believе that I'm back to the basics
Climbin′ out of the trees, gettin′ back to thе root (ooh)
No, I can't believe that I′m back to the basics
Jumpin' down from the clouds, gettin′ grounded in you


I've heard every song and Sunday word
The profound, the absurd
And I study ′cause I'm a nerd
I've heard that God′s good and He′s real
And the devil, he'll steal
Faith over what you feel, hey

And I promise I still believe all that
It′s simple things that you must come back home to
Ain't complex with you, no, no
I can give my best, even give what′s left
But I can't move mountains if I lose step with you, oh

So I can′t believe that I'm back to the basics
Climbin' out of the trees, gettin′ back to the root, ooh
I can′t believe that I'm back to the basics
Jumpin′ down from the clouds, gettin' grounded in you

So if you lose your way
Get back to the basics
Somebody needs to pray
Get back to the basics
God′s love is still the same

Get back to the basics
Come back and find your faith
Get back to the basics
Yeah, His hand don't pull away
So, get back to the basics


You′re not too far today
To get back to the basics
Mm, there's sun after the rain
Back to the basics
There's healing after pain
Back to the basics

La-la-la-la-la-la
Get back to the basics
La-la-la-la-la-la
Get back to the basics

La-la-la-la-la-la
Gettin′ back to the basics
La-la-la-la-la-la
Get back to the basics, oh
