Winki’s Theme Songtext
von Queen Latifah

This jam is dedicated to my brother Winki, who is looking down on me from Heaven
Watching my every move, as usual


There but for the grace of God, do I go? Do I go?
There but for the grace of God, do I go? Do I go? (Go)
I′m trying to take my time on this rhyme
But it's bustin from the seems
Like the fantasy and eagerness of dreams
Moving all around, oh, yes I′m making leaps an bounds
Theres so much shit to say, no time to write it down
I'm skippin' to this and skippin′ to that
I′ve overflowed my cup
I'm flowin′ kind of quick I hope you can keep up
Every ain't cool just cause you slap me on my hand
There′s things about all of ya'll have got to understand
Latifah- never was a teacher
Never was a preacher
Never was a saint
Never was conceited
Never was defeated
Sometimes I get tired, sometimes I want to faint
But I never shut up when things piss me off
And if I got to curse at you to get my point across
Thats what I got to do thats how it got to be
I′ve got an angel watching over me

There but for the grace of God, do I go? Do I go?
There but for the grace of God, do I go? Do I go? (Go)

There but for the grace of God (If you lose your way)
Search and find, search and find, search
And find (There but for the, there but for the grace) Search and find (of God)
What's on ya' mind? (What′s on ya′ mind?) What's comin′ down? (Running through) (There but for the, there but for the grace of God)
Extra time

It's time for you to find
What′s goin' on in your mind
Try to find peace of mind
When your blind, world′s unkind
Got to fight, keep the right
At the time, never gone
Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on
Keep on, keep on, I keep on, I keep on
I keep on (I keep on), I keep on (I keep on), I keep on
Strive on, strive on
Strive on


Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, break it down

The Lord is the light, is the light, is the light
The Lord is the light of my life, and he brightens up my world
Yes, he did, yes, he did
Lord is the light of my life, and he brightens up my world
You don't hear me

Lord is the light of my life, and he brightens up my world
Yes, he did, yes, he did
Lord is the light of my life, and he brightens up my world, world, wor-, world, world
