Red Blanket Prelude

So, Imma talk about my dad, my father Well, let me start off by saying my mom is the most amazing person I know I just wanna make sure, you know, my dad's not the one getting all the love I'm one of eight siblings and we're all somehow involved in full-time ministry which is amazing in itself And I attribute that to my mom And for my dad's 70th birthday party My mom called me and asked me to write a song for my dad And I remember saying to her, "umm, Mom, writing songs ain't just that easy", you know So I decided, obviously, I'm gonna sit down and try to do this And basically all the songs on this project I wrote them in a very difficult season of my life So it's like еvery song is kinda laced with pain Or at least writtеn from a painful place When I said on my piano to write this song It just came rushing into my head probably faster than any song I've ever written And this one is also laced with pain Cause the chorus says And when times got hard You taught me how to worship God I'm talking about my dad I feel the need to explain I just feel the need to explain one line in the song so that everyone that listens isn't totally lost There's a line in the pre-chorus that says But you placed inside of me A storm-kit that I've held on to My own proverbial red blanket
