THE PRESENT

Hey, I hope you have a very, very, Merry Christmas
I hope you get all of the things that's on your wishlist
And though the seasons always come and go and change
Our love for Jesus always remains

Yeah, I don't need a green gift with a bow tie
I don't need a red suit wearing old guy
If it's a price tag hanging on a white Jag
Y'all can take the keys
'Cause I got peace, I got love and it comes from up above
Gettin' more stuff ain't gon' make me feel enough

So I don't want a box under the tree
I'm not looking for a card or any money
'Cause today is a gift and that's all I need
I guess that's why they call it "The Present" (The Present)
Ayy, I hope you have a very, very, Merry Christmas
I hope you get all of the things that's on your wishlist
And though the seasons always come and go and change
Our love for Jesus always remains

Ayy, bright lights on a Christmas tree (Tree)
Louis V bag with a shopping spree (Spree)
Feels good to you for, hmm, about a week
But then it fades away, but not this peace, not this love
When it comes from up above
Praise the Lord because He tells us we're enough

So I don't want a box under the tree
I'm not looking for a card or any money
'Cause today is a gift and that's all I need
I guess that's why they call it, guess that's why they call it
I guess that's why they call it "The Present"
I don't want a box under the tree
I'm not looking for a card or any money
'Cause today is a gift and that's all I need
I guess that's why they call it "The Present"

Ayy, I hope you have a very, very, Merry Christmas (Today is a gift)
I hope you have a very, very, Merry Christmas (Today is a gift)
I hope you have a very, very, Merry Christmas (Today is a gift)
I guess that's why they always call it "The Present"
