Concetta Hardnett Poet Lyric

When You Have a Gift

When you have a Gift 

(Verse 1)
Everybody has a passion 
Something that they love to do
Yet we settle for other things 
Our dreams never come true 
Everybody has a vision 
Some just refuse to see 
That you can be 
Anything you want to be 
So why do we things just to get by
You never see the passion in your eye
No longer spend time based on what ifs
Pray hard and ask God 
To reveal your gift (ummm,hmmm)

(Chorus)
When you have a gift 
Its time to be unwrapped 
Don't be afraid 
Embrace your craft
We are all uniquely made
We're different, we weren't made the same 
Cut one thing I can explain
Don't battle with what ifs 
Just be thankful we all have gifts 

(Verse 2) (Rap)
When I speak of gifts 
Not the ones under the tree 
I'm talking about the ones 
That are in your destiny
The ones you work hard on
Each and everyday
The gift that leads you on your way
You know the one that lifts up your spirit
You'd do it without currency
You can feel it
Gifts come from the heart 
You had a gift from the start
Its up to you , to let it defer or don't let it occur either way,
To display your gift
You got to keep the Faith 

Chorus)
When you have a gift 
Its time to be unwrapped 
Don't be afraid 
Embrace your craft
We are all uniquely made
We're different, we weren't made the same 
Cut one thing I can explain
Don't battle with what ifs 
Just be thankful we all have gifts 

(Bridge)
Fulfill your gift 
To the Max
These are not opinions 
They are facts 
Find out your gift
Don't be scared no what ifs
Fulfill your gift
To the Max
These are not opinions 
They are facts 
Find out your gift 
Don't be scared no what ifs 

Chorus)
When you have a gift 
Its time to be unwrapped 
Don't be afraid 
Embrace your craft
We are all uniquely made
We're different, we weren't made the same 
Cut one thing I can explain
Don't battle with what ifs 
Just be thankful we all have gifts

(Repeat Until Chorus Fades)
