Odd Thomas - How Did We Get Here (Live at UWYI 360LA) lyrics

[Intro: Propaganda] Can you turn this up real quick So here's a celebration for you guys who have been through a lot of ugly things And the Lord somehow brought you to where you are now And all you can do now is be involved in this goodness Am I right, check it out [Verse 1: Propaganda] Yeah, cause I remember karaoke mics pointed at the speaker Boom box play the tracks, CD skipped, bunch of raps Open mics, night side, drive by ghetto bird Hoping you can make it home Better get swift with your words Birthplace, earthquake Hometown; it goes down Learn to bust choppers before your ABC, tragedy Survivor rivals the odds of tryin' to fight gravity A compliment when MC say come battle me, stay cool Now a dad, college grad, quit my job, hit the road Tryin' to get my marriage happy Ask about me at the bottom of the 710, holding down the sea port Beach city, coast guard, Queen Mary, Snoop Lion Trust me, I'm a native, the Hollywood sign be lyin' beneath it Grave of a thousand young souls, take a stroll on a sure dream of Californication And I still can't explain how any of us made it It's grace [Hook: Andy Mineo & Propaganda] And I got a feeling I can't describe I see this place when I close my eyes Wake me up if we ever arrive And tell me how did we How did we get here? Tell me how did we (You can do better than that) How did we get here? Tell me how did we How did we get here? Tell me how did we How did we get here? Tell me [Verse 2: Propaganda] We'd be waving palm branches People with second chances Coal train love [?] Half [?] the things that there ain't no People would turn back things I can't grow Runnin' tables telling stories of young decisions More like who'd you rather be 2Pac, Biggie, Beatles or Rolling Stones Kobe, Lebron, [?] or Jordan it's all [?] [?] I prolly ain't [?] [?] homie I can walk with One of us is [?] Homie the Divine did it Another [?] who never lost his accent Google it [?] option, but thanks for the celebration On every stage I stand on Oh, before [?] don't let me stumble you If it's on Jeter the next one's on me It's a good day [Hook: Andy Mineo & Propaganda] And I got a feeling I can't describe I see this place when I close my eyes So wake me up if we ever arrive And tell me how did we How did we get here? Tell me how did we (You can do better than that) How did we get here? (I don't even know) Tell me how did we How did we get here? Tell me how did we How did we get here? Tell me [Interlude: Propaganda] Sometimes you just need to take a step back and give in to all His goodness I really don't have an answer except for the Lord is gracious So if you ever get in that position Take that moment You can ask yourself "How did we get here" Let me tell you what I learned though [Verse 3: Propaganda] And I learned you ain't in love with this Time to fire your publicist, I inspire above the mess Your desire requires this lost angels city, don't pity us, fully aware That's why I don't flinch at a bully scare [Outro: Propaganda] That's us trying to be pretty with our music
