[Intro — one-bar bass pickup; dry rap] Got something good. Let it travel. [Verse 1 — bouncy phrasing; accelerate into the endings] Used to count what I was short on, barely count what I’d been handed; Now the things I took for granted got me changing what my plan is. Breath, bread, roof, friends—reason on top of a reason; Got more than a mood to be grateful; His goodness don’t change with the season. Neighbor had a porch light out; I had time and a ladder; Could’ve scrolled another hour—put a little light where it mattered. Didn’t need to name the moment or announce what I was doing; Felt the love that filled my life find a way to keep on moving. Let the thanks in my mouth find a task for the hands that I’m raising; You been pouring into me; I got good I can put in rotation. Let it travel with the groceries, ride along when I’m working; Got a praise that leaves the speakers and gets busy with a purpose. [Hook — fully rapped; loose confidence, clean landing words] Overflow, I got good I can’t keep to myself; What He poured into me got a way of reaching somebody else. Whole lot of life in the little that I’m giving away; When the cup runs over, let it run through the rest of my day. [Verse 2 — fast pockets; bass answers each couplet] Been blessed with a little, been blessed with a lot; Some of my richest days didn’t add to a thing that I bought. Take an interest in a person, never tally what they owe me; There’s a kind of wealth in giving that a number couldn’t show me. Friend called, car down, said the day had him sinking; Gave a lift, talked a minute, had the whole mood lifting. Nothing major on the surface, just a seat and some mileage; But the look when he got in told me showing up was priceless. Little things get big when the love in ’em spreads; You can set a day in motion with a sentence someone said. Spirit, let me be a channel that can carry what You send; If the signal is Your love, let it reach beyond my friends. [Hook — same pocket, subtle end-word doubles] Overflow, I got good I can’t keep to myself; What He poured into me got a way of reaching somebody else. Whole lot of life in the little that I’m giving away; When the cup runs over, let it run through the rest of my day. [Turnaround — two bars; bass and rimshots] [Verse 3 — quick internal rhymes; keep the bounce] Let the quiet work speak volumes when the song is finished playing; Let somebody feel the love behind the words that I’ve been saying. Quick with the syllables, generous, steady in giving; Thankful the life that You gave me has room for somebody else in it. Little by little, the ripple gets bigger the minute it leaves me; Let it go out of my hands; let it reach where my feet couldn’t reach it. Keep it moving through the block, through the job, through the life that I’m living; Everything good came from You—let it show in the way that I’m giving. [Final Hook — fully rapped; final bass variation] Overflow, I got good I can’t keep to myself; What He poured into me got a way of reaching somebody else. Whole lot of life in the little that I’m giving away; When the cup runs over, let it run through the rest of my day. [Outro — dry rap; clean stop] Got something good. Now somebody else does.
