You Know How We Do

by Erika Burt

Girl…
Early morn silliness on
Chuckles at mid-day
Then bills come flooding in
With insults from shady friends
Flames jump high inside
Heat is on a skyscraping rise
And all I hear you say is
Hold Up
Stand Down
Get in it, I know it's tough, but
You know how we do
You know what’s up
Just Stand
Evening tides, jokes aside
Passive sighs thru the night
Then restful peace resides
Girl...
Early morn silliness on
Laughter at mid-day
Joy comes flooding in
Face covered by an impenetrable grin
Thankful to the Lord again
'Cause we know how He do
