Yeah, let us remember the reason for the season.They say it's better if you're giving than receiving.I think it's whatever religion that you believe in.Silent night, all is calm, the kids are even sleeping.Except for Steven, he caught mommy kissing Santa Claus.Decked the hall, shopping malls, a glass of nog, I thank the Lord.That I made it through another year, I gotta say peace and season's greetings to all of y'all and happy holidays.We all up before dawn, the kids all excited cause the presents weren't the bomb.And I'm excited too, I got my new shoes on.While I can't play the box cause the blues clues on.Really I'm just happy cause I got to see another year.You know the older you get, the more your purpose is clear.Some of these faces I ain't seen in so long.But as long as I'm alive, you will always have a home.So give me family, give me friends, and give me joy.Give me tears, give me hope and grant me wisdom.Show me love through the years.It's Christmas time when family is near.It's Christmas time when we just forget our fears.How I wish it lasts through the years.Won't you stay a while, a while, won't you stay a while.This Christmas was different, had some depth in the family.Felt odd, but I thank God for what's left for my family.As I sat on the floor, bowed my momma's leg, asked her to sing the songs to me that she used to sing.Big gnaws and run balls in my five year old.It's Christmas time when family is near. Won't you stay a while, a while, won't you stay a while.In love with Santa Claus, y'all know how that go.Gift card from Applebee's, y'all know Uncle V.Under the mistletoe, if you looking for me.Bought my son a game, they in my living room deep.Cooked a turkey and a ham, leftovers all week.Bring the new year in church, my homies at the club.It's the last night that Christmas tree's gonna be up.So give me family, give me friends, and give me joy.Give me tears, give me hope.*** me wisdom, show me love through the years.All my life, yeah.You've all been there right from the start.Every time you always protect my heart.What you've given me is irreplaceable.So won't you stay a while.It's Christmas time when family is near.It's Christmas time when we just forget our fears.How I wish it lasts through the year.Won't you stay a while, a while.Won't you just stay here a while.Won't you just stay here a while.My family is here.Yeah.Forget all your fears.Yeah.Yeah.Yeah.Yeah.Yeah.Yeah.Yeah.Yeah.Yeah.Yeah.Yeah.Yeah.
